June 14 against the New York Cosmos (in U.S. Open Cup play).

SUNRISE, Fla. -- Scott Clemmensen got the best of the Montreal Canadiens yet again. Brian Campbell, Aleksander Barkov and Dmitry Kulikov each scored goals to lift the Florida Panthers over the Canadiens 4-1 on Sunday night. Sean Bergenheim added an empty-net goal with 17 seconds left, and Tom Gilbert had two assists. Clemmensen stopped 21 shots for the Panthers, who broke a three-game losing streak and beat Montreal for the second time this month. Clemmensen is 8-1 against the Canadiens. "Im aware of it but I think its a little bit of a coincidence," Clemmensen said. "Its just a team that weve matched up well against for some reason. Ive been fortunate in these games against them to get a lot of help in front of me." Clemmensen started in place of Tim Thomas, who is being held out to give him more time to recover from a groin injury that has forced him to miss eight games. "I think it was the right decision," Panthers coach Peter Horachek said. "The more time we can give him now, we wont have a reoccurrence." Brandon Prust scored for the Canadiens, and Peter Budaj made 21 saves. Montreal lost for the first time in three games. Florida stretched its lead to 3-1 on Barkovs goal in the second period. Gilberts shot from the slot was tipped in at 14:29 by Barkov, who has seven points in six games. The Canadiens had a goal disallowed for the second time in the game with 12:37 left. Danny Briere swept a loose puck into the net, but it was ruled that Alex Galchenyuk prevented Clemmensen from playing his position before the shot. "I think it was a good call. I was in the crease, and the guy came in behind me and kind of pushed me out," Clemmensen said. The Canadiens also appeared to score with 6:34 remaining in the first, but the goal was waved off because Brian Gionta was called for knocking the puck down with a high stick at the blue line. "I think I went my first 11 years without getting a goal called back on me," Clemmensen said. "This is my 13th year pro, and last year I had one and already a couple this year." Canadiens coach Michel Therrien strongly disagreed with the calls. "Its really frustrating. The first goal that they refused, Gionta said it never touched the stick," Therrien said. "The second goal, it was clearly a crosscheck by them against Galchenyuk. So its one of those nights." Other players wouldnt blame the disallowed goals for the defeat. "Its deflating, but thats not why we lost," Gionta said. "We didnt play a good all-around game. They deserved to win. We didnt have the effort we needed." Montreal tied it 1-1 in the second period on Prusts goal. Prust picked up the puck while sliding through the slot and wristed a shot on net. The puck deflected in off Clemmensen at 2:56. "I think it went in off his blocker," Prust said. "You just turn and fire the puck. When youre in front of the net, you just shoot it." The Panthers reclaimed the lead less than two minutes later. A shot by Campbell bounced off Budaj and popped up in the air over his head. The puck hit the ice in front and went in off Budajs skate to make it 2-1. The goal was originally credited to Barkov, and Campbell didnt realize the goal belonged to him until after the game. "I was in position, and it went straight up," Budaj said. "Its tough luck and a bad rebound. Id like to have that one back." The Panthers took a 1-0 lead on Kulikovs goal in the first period during 4-on-4 play. Kulikov took a pass from Tomas Fleischmann in the left circle and beat Budaj on the stick side at 6:10. The goal was Kulikovs first in 28 games.

After just two league games in June, Toronto (6-4-1) will go on to play seven in July plus a friendly against Tottenham. Five of those contests are against Eastern Conference opposition, meaning valuable points in the playoff race are on the line. Manager Ryan Nelsen gave his players eight days off following the 1-0 win over visiting San Jose on June 7. They have been training ever since, albeit with sessions pushed forward a little bit to allow players to watch the World Cup in the afternoon. There are different allegiances, although the team is rooting for both Brazil and the U.S. given the presence of TFC goalie Julio Cesar and midfielder Michael Bradley at the tournament. Canadian international Jonathan Osorio is pulling for Colombia, where his parents came from. The U.S.-Ghana game pitted the 12 Americans on the Toronto roster against Ghana-born forward Dominic Oduro. Massage therapist and acupuncturist Marcelo Casal is cheering for Uruguay. The public relations department is still mourning the exit of Italy. While his players enjoyed time off, albeit with a prescribed gym regimen, Nelsen and his coaches were at work planning training sessions. "We might have worked around a nice glass of red," said Nelsen, whose business holdings include a winery back home in New Zealand. Nelsen is expecting a hard contest Friday against the Red Bulls (4-5-6) who are one point behind fourth-place Toronto in the East despite having played four more games. Toronto defeated New York 2-0 when they met in May at BMO Field, with Jermain Defoe scoring early and Luke Moore scoring late. "I think that game was a big game for us," said Nelsen. "We had a few guys out (injured) and wed justt come back from the West Coast after 120 minutes (in an Amway Canadian Championship game in Vancouver) and it was a really, really good performance.dddddddddddd. "New York will have a lot of motivation, in all honesty, to put one back on us. Its at their home field. Ive got a real sense that everybodys desperate to play a game after the break. "Its nice to have a break but everybody wants to get back on the field. I can sense this games going to be a really good one, a good tough one. Im looking forward to it." The host Red Bulls will also be well rested. Star striker Thierry Henry, fresh from a stint as a BBC World Cup analyst, and Colombian defender Jamison Olave have not played since May 27 at Sporting Kansas City, skipping artificial turf games June 8 in New England and June 14 against the New York Cosmos (in U.S. Open Cup play). The Red Bulls Australian star Tim Cahill is slated to be back from the World Cup and could make an appearance Friday night. Cahill did not see action in the Socceroos 3-0 loss to Spain on Monday but scored two goals earlier at the tournament including a highlight-reel volley against the Dutch. "Were expecting them to play," Nelsen said of Cahill and Henry. While hes a Kiwi, Nelsen was raving about Cahills strike against the Dutch while saying it had not got the publicity it deserved. "For me, if a Brazilian did that, or an Argentinian, or a big-country-type player did that, theyd be raving about that for years to come. ... It was of such quality that I didnt think they gave him the credit he really deserved for an over-the-shoulder left-foot volley." "But thats Timmy," he added. "Timmys been scoring those type of goals his whole career. Thats why New York is so lucky to have him." Toronto has two injury concerns in winger Daniel Lovitz (concussion) and Brazilian striker Gilberto (hip flexor). ' ' '
