BUFFALO, N. Sean Reid-Foley Jersey .Y. -- Florida Panthers captain Ed Jovanovski finally has something to show for all the pain he went through in overcoming a string of injuries that kept him sidelined for much of the past two years. Playing only his ninth game of the season since recovering from hip surgery, the veteran defenceman scored the go-ahead goal and added an assist in sparking a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night. The goal came in Jovanovskis 1,100th career game and was his first since April 5, 2012. So forgive him if he had difficulty recalling the last time he scored. "Oh, has it been that long?" the 37-year-old said. "Im getting a little up there. But I think for me, having the opportunity to be in the dressing room and going out there and doing something that I love, thats a privilege." He even got a fortunate bounce in putting the Panthers ahead 3-2 with 1:04 left in the first period. Jovanovskis shot from the top of the left circle deflected in off the stick of Sabres defenceman Mike Weber. With Jovanovski providing the offence, another member of the Panthers old guard did his part to ensure the lead stood up. Veteran goalie Tim Thomas stopped 32 shots, including 15 in the final period to improve to 7-3-2 in his past 12. "Yeah, it was a little bit of chaos there for a while," the 39-year-old Thomas said. "But it must have been entertaining for the fans. And I can laugh at it because we came out on top." The Panthers (20-23-7) improved to 4-2-1 in their past seven, and secured wins on consecutive nights. Florida was coming off a 5-1 win at Pittsburgh that snapped the Penguins franchise-record home winning streak at 13. Sean Bergenheim, Jesse Winchester and Nick Bjugstad also scored for Florida, which improved to 4-0-1 in its past five trips to Buffalo. Tom Gilbert set up two goals in helping the Panthers overcome a pair of one-goal first-period deficits. Drew Stafford scored twice and Steve Ott also scored for the Sabres (13-28-7), who dropped to 0-2-2 in their past four. Otts goal 8:36 into the third period cut the Panthers lead to 4-3, but the Sabres failed to capitalize on three power-play chances over the final 7:13. That included a 4-minute power-play after Panthers forward Brad Boyes was issued a double-minor penalty for high-sticking Sabres defenceman Henrik Tallinder. "Obviously, it wasnt good enough tonight," Sabres coach Ted Nolan said. "We had a great opportunity for almost a minute and a half. We just didnt get shots through." Ryan Miller had a bit of an off night as well in finishing with 18 saves. Though the first three goals he allowed all came on deflected shots, he gave up a soft one in allowing Bjugstad to put the Panthers up 4-2 with 3:48 left in the second period. Driving up the left wing, Bjugstad snapped a shot that beat Miller high on the short side. "It wasnt one of my better games," said Miller, who had allowed eight goals in his past four (2-0-2). "Ive got to get myself into a little better spot where Im in better position." Thomas, by comparison, was solid. He was particularly sharp on back-to-back chances the Sabres had early in the third period to preserve a 4-2 Panthers lead. First, Thomas got his glove out to get a piece of Staffords shot from the left circle on a 2-on-1 break 90 seconds into the frame. Some 40 seconds later, Thomas got his glove up to foil Cody Hodgson, who was in alone, to preserve the two-goal edge. Thomas had no chance on either of the three goals he allowed. Both of Staffords goals came from the slot. And Ott scored during a scramble in front and after Thomas stopped Staffords attempt to jam the puck in at the right post. Panthers rookie centre Aleksander Barkov did not return after sustaining a lower-body injury late in the first period. Without going into detail, coach Peter Horachek said Barkov was kept out as a precaution and likely could have returned. Horachek didnt expect the injury to be long term. NOTES: Sabres D Tallinder returned after missing eight games with an upper-body injury. ... Both teams entered the night having identical 9-9-7 records this season in games decided by one goal. ... Staffords opening goal came on the man advantage, ending the Panthers streak of 29 consecutive power-plays without a goal. The streak is tied for fifth on the team list, and seven short of matching the record set Feb. 16-29, 2004, according to STATS. Dave Winfield Jersey . Louis Cardinals. He was 48.

Motherwell goalkeeper Connor Ripley looked like he was going to frustrate the league leaders with a string of impressive saves in a first-half in which Celtic also missed a penalty from Leigh Griffiths. A round-up of all of Saturdays action from the Scottish Premiership. But Griffiths finally beat Ripley a minute before the break before he took his tally for the season to 37 with 15 minutes remaining at Fir Park after Scott McDonald had levelled for the home side. In spite of his heroics, Ripley was at fault for the winning goal, but the stopper denied Celtic a third goal on a couple of occasions after they had restored their lead.Kennedy felt Celtic should have been out of sight by half-time, but he praised the players for standing firm as Motherwell made a contest of the game after the break.With a Aberdeen losing 2-1 to Hearts on Friday, Celtic now reequire just seven points to clinch a fifth successive Scottish Premiership title with just five matches remaining. Jonathan Davis Blue Jays Jersey. It was important that we took advantage of Aberdeen slipping up last night, Kennedy said..The first half performance was good, we had some good chances but we didnt quite capitalise and in the second half we had to dig very deep but at this time of the season it is about results, that is the most important thing.It gives us an extra cushion but take nothing for granted in this game.With five games to go and eight points clear I would like to think we could see the job through. Celtic assistant John Kennedy (left) and Motherwell boss Mark McGhee (right) either side of Ronny Deila Motherwell boss Mark McGhee was involved in an exchange of words with Ronny Deila at full-time and refused to shake hands with his Celtic counterpart.Both McGhee and Kennedy played down the incident which apparently rose from a misunderstanding from the Well manager.And while McGhee had few complaints about the result, he believes his side should have been awarded a goal when McDonald put the ball in the net just after the interval.Sky Sports replays showed the striker had strayed marginally offside though and referee Willie Collum and his assistant made the correct call.McGhee said: We were beaten by the Champions elect. They deserved to win the game but we are very aggrieved that once again a decision has gone against us.I have watched it over and over and I know the linesman has only one look at it but for me it is onside and it should have stood. But we cant have any complaints. Also See: Griffiths secures Celtic win As it happened Celtic fixtures ' ' '
