SUNRISE, Fla. - Michael Frolik had a goal and two assists as the Florida Panthers beat Toronto 4-1 on Wednesday night, extending the Maple Leafs' losing streak to seven games.
Bryan Allen, Steven Reinprecht and Shawn Matthias also scored for Florida.
Tomas Vokoun made 32 saves in his first start since being pulled in the first period against Carolina on Friday night.
The Maple Leafs' losing streak is their longest since opening last season at 0-6-1. They have lost 10 of their past 11 games and are 3- for-39 on the power play in their last 10 games.
Jonas Gustavsson stopped 24 shots for Toronto.
The Panthers opened the scoring at 7:42 of the first. Stephen Weiss brought the puck along the side boards and pushed it toward the goal. Gustavsson turned the puck away with his stick into the side boards, but Allen grabbed the rebound and his slap shot beat Gustavsson on the stick side.
Florida made it 2-0 on Reinprecht's power-play goal in the second. Dennis Wideman took a shot from in front but the puck deflected off a skate and bounced out to Reinprecht on the right corner of the crease. He poked the puck into the open net at 15:44.
Matthias' goal at 2:44 of the third stretched the Panthers' lead to 3-0. The Leafs got caught deep in the zone and Matthias took a pass from Frolik near the blue line and skated in alone on Gustavsson and fired a wrist shot that went between the goalie's pads.
The Panthers made it 4-0 on Frolik's wrist shot during a power play at 12:44 of the third.
Less than a minute later, Toronto avoided being shutout for the fourth time in its past seven games when Mikhail Grabovski's shot from the point beat Vokoun.
NOTES: The Panthers honoured former goalie John Vanbiesbrouck before the game. Vanbiesbrouck was the first goalie for the expansion Panthers in 1993 and played for them from 1993-98. ... Toronto C Phil Kessel has gone seven games without a point.
