PHILADELPHIA -- Thanks to the stellar play of goaltender Steve Mason, the Philadelphia Flyers enter Tuesday nights game against the banged-up Florida Panthers on a five-game winning streak, their longest since March 15-22, 2014 when Craig Berube was behind the bench. Nick Leddy Islanders Jersey .After struggling through the first month of the season, Mason has won four in a row, sporting a much-improved 1.71 goals-against average and .945 save percentage.His play over the last stretch has been outstanding and hes been a strong anchor for us, Flyers coach Dave Hakstol told CSNPhilly.com. His confidence kind of goes hand-in-hand with our teams confidence. They both feed off one another. You can see that throughout our entire game.As a result the Flyers (14-10-3, 31 points) have moved within four points of the Metropolitan Division-leading New York Rangers (17-8-1, 35 points).Conversely, the injury-depleted Panthers are struggling to stay afloat under general manager-turned coach Tom Rowe. Florida dropped a 4-3 overtime decision to the Bruins in Boston Monday night and lost veteran defenseman Keith Yandle to a lower body injury. Hard-nosed defenseman Dylan McIlrath, acquired from the Rangers last month, is expected to take Yandles place in the lineup against the Flyers.The Panthers already are without leading scorer Jonathan Marchessault, who is day-to-day with a lower-body injury. Marchessault leads the Panthers with 19 points in 25 games. They are still waiting for forward Jonathan Huberdeau (Achilles tendon) and defenseman Alex Petrovic (ankle surgery) to return from serious injuries.The Panthers received goals from Jaromir Jagr, Aleksander Barkov and Jason Demers in their loss to the Bruins but have struggled to score goals lately and are 1-1-2 since Rowe replaced popular head coach Gerard Gallant. The Panthers have scored just four regulation goals in their last four games and 12 goals in their last eight.Second-line center Vincent Trochek hasnt scored in 15 games, second-line right wing Reilly Smith has one goal in 13 contests and Jussi Jokinen has one goal in 16 games.Last year I had 60 points, so you feel you can do that again, be consistent, Jokinen told the Sun Sentinel. Offensively, it hasnt been the start I wanted. I know its going to come. Whether youre Sidney Crosby, Jussi Jokinen or a first-year player, youre going to struggle.Rowe mixed up his forward lines in Boston on Monday, putting Trocheck with Jagr and Denis Malgin.With back-to-back games, look for Roberto Luongo to be given a rest on Tuesday night in favor of backup James Reimer, who is 8-3-4 with a 3.05 GAA and an .896 save percentage this season.The Flyers are expected to turn to Mason, who has the benefit of playing behind the NHLs third-ranked offense with 84 goals.During their five-game winning streak, forward Jakub Voracek has one goal and five assists, Wayne Simmonds and captain Claude Giroux each have five points, and Brayden Schenn and Chris VandeVelde each have four points. Defensemen Ivan Provorov and Michael Del Zotto also have combined for four goals.Simmonds scored a pair of goals in the Flyers 4-2 win in Nashville on Sunday.He is doing what he does every night, Hakstol said. If there is a better guy in the league in that front, whether its on the power play or five on five, I dont know who that is.The Flyers will be without forward Matt Read, who will be sidelined four weeks with an upper-body injury. Read has six goals and four assists in 27 games. He was injured when he was checked into his own net on Sunday.Philadelphia recalled forward Taylor Leier from Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League and sent down forward Scott Laughton. Andrew Ladd Islanders Jersey . Halladay signed a one-day contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday that allowed the veteran right-hander to retire as a member of team with which he broke into the majors and spent the bulk of his distinguished 16-year career. Anders Lee Islanders Jersey . In what the team had called a retirement, Ryan said Thursday that he is resigning as chief executive of the Rangers in a move effective at the end of this month. http:///...er-islanders-jersey/ . Oaklands loss to Seattle clinched the ALs best record for the Red Sox with one day to spare in the regular season. "I think everybody was kind of watching," catcher David Ross said. "Demp (Ryan Dempster) came out before he went to the bullpen and was just yelling that they lost. ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Texas Rangers have re-signed free agent outfielder Carlos Gomez, finishing the one-year, $11.5 million agreement reached during winter meetings.To make room for Gomez on the 40-man roster, right-hander Brady Dragmire was designated for assignment Tuesday.The 31-year-old Gomez figures to play center field for the Rangers after Ian Desmond left for Colorado on a five-year, $70 million deal. Gomez is likely to be joined by Shin-Soo Choo in right and Nomar Mazara in left.Gomez batted .. Ryan Pulock Jersey. 10 with five homers in 85 games this year for Houston and was released by the Astros in August. He signed with Texas and hit .284 with eight homers and 24 RBI in 33 games. An All-Star in 2013 and 14 with Milwaukee, Gomez has a .257 average and 116 home runs in 10 big league seasons.The 23-year-old Dragmire was received from Pittsburgh in a waiver claim this month. ' ' '
