Panthers cruise to 6-2 win over Sabres

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — The Florida Panthers are making up for a sluggish start.

Michael Frolik scored twice, Dominic Moore and Rostislav Olesz had a goal and an assist each, and Tomas Vokoun made 26 saves in the Panthers 6-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night.

After a 2-7-1 start, Florida has won six times in its last nine games, and has earned points in all but two of those contests to rebound back to respectability.

"It's taken some time," Moore said. "As you go you learn, and you try to improve each game. We've got a group that has taken a while to jell, so every game and every period we're just trying to get better."

The Panthers were certainly much better the second time around against a Sabres team that handed them a 5-2 pasting in October.
