BOSTON -- The suddenly high-scoring Boston Bruins are showing no mercy, even for the departed goalie who led them to the Stanley Cup. Milan Lucic scored twice and the Bruins spoiled Tim Thomas first game in Boston as a visitor with a 6-2 win over the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night. "I think I mightve enjoyed myself watching the State of the Union more," said Thomas, not a big fan of President Barack Obama, who delivered the speech at the same time as the Bruins were beating the Panthers for the sixth straight time. "No, probably not." In 2011, Thomas didnt accompany his teammates to the White House for the ceremony with Obama marking their championship that year. Boston scored six goals for the third straight game, following road wins of 6-1 and 6-3. The Atlantic Division leaders improved to 5-0-1 in their last six games. Why all that scoring for a team known for its defence? "Weve been able to get out of our zone cleanly and establish the rush," Lucic said. They kept going to the very end, with Carl Soderberg charging into the crease where an angry Thomas swung his stick, hitting Soderberg in the helmet with 4 seconds left. "With less than a minute left in the game and theyre up by four goals," Thomas said, "I took exception to that." Soderberg proclaimed his innocence. "I was just going for the rebound," he said. "We cant stop playing." Even if the opposing goalie was Thomas, who won the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP with the Bruins in 2011. He spent one more season with them, took last season off and then joined the Panthers. "Tims always going to be a part of this organization for what hes done," Boston coach Claude Julien said, "but we just have to look at him as the opposing goalie." Zdeno Chara, Reilly Smith, Shawn Thornton and David Krejci also scored for Boston, which led 4-0 until Brad Boyes connected for Florida with 2:33 left in the second period. Dmitry Kulikov added a power-play goal for the Panthers 4 minutes into the third. "All four lines are putting the puck in the net," Krejci said. "Thats good to see." Fans applauded lightly when Thomas was introduced as the starting goalie. But after Thornton made it 5-2 just more than 8 minutes into the third period, they derisively chanted, "Thomas! Thomas!" "I didnt really hear it too much," Thomas said. "There were really not a lot of feelings." Thomas played against the Bruins for the first time on Oct. 17 in Bostons 3-2 win at Florida. He travelled with the Panthers to Boston but did not play Nov. 7 in the Bruins 4-1 victory. For the second consecutive game, the Bruins were the early aggressors, outshooting the Panthers 19-8 in the first period. On Monday night, Boston took 18 of the first 20 shots in a 6-3 win over the New York Islanders. Lucic gave the Bruins a 1-0 lead at 7:41 of the first period on a rebound after Thomas stopped Jarome Iginlas shot from the right circle. Lucic was initially credited with the second goal less than 8 minutes later when Charas 45-foot shot from the right appeared to hit him before bouncing over Thomas and trickling into the net. The scoring was changed when it was determined that the puck hit Thomas glove, not Lucic. But that didnt stop a few spectators from throwing hats on the ice early in the second, thinking Lucic had completed a hat trick when he scored his 15th of the season on a short backhand. Smith made it 4-0 with his team-leading 18th goal at 14:54 of the second on a pass across the slot from Soderberg. He beat Thomas to the open side of the net. "That wasnt (Thomas) best game," Panthers coach Peter Horachek said, "but I dont think there were a lot of solid efforts by many of the players." After Boyes ruined Tuukka Rasks bid for his fourth shutout in 13 decisions, Kulikov made it 4-2. His goal ended an 0-for-43 power-play drought for the Panthers over their previous 13 games and the first two periods Tuesday. Rask finished with 28 saves. NOTES: Sean Bergenheims assist on Kulikovs goal was his 150th NHL point. It came in his 100th game with the Panthers. ...

Oklahoma City boasts a core of stars a€” reigning MVP Kevin Durant, electric point guard Russell Westbrook and defensive dynamo Serge Ibaka a€” that has played together for the past five years. The trio has reached the Western Conference Finals three times and the NBA Finals once. As other teams bring in high-priced free agents, piece squads together and hope they build chemistry, Presti hopes the collective experience of his best players finally gets the Thunder to the top. Continuity has become a lost currency, Presti said Thursday. Its very hard to maintain that, given the rules. Youre going to lose players, theres going to be changes. I think how you adapt to that, how youre able to absorb loss, but also add without having to lose players, is important. The Thunder lost to the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals last season, but Presti is excited about the future because his stars are just moving into their prime. Durant will be 26 on Sept. 29, Westbrook turns 26 in November and Ibaka just turned 25 on Sept. 18. I think their best basketball is in front of them, Presti said. But weve been saying that for seven years, and I think well keep saying that for a little while because theres a few attributes that those guys possess that I think are the foundational DNA of an organization. One, work ethic. Two, competitive will. Three, humility and an understanding theres always work to be done. I admire that in any person. Presti said the trio has set the tone for work ethic and professionalism.dddddddddddd They understand that getting ready for the playoffs is a season-long process. We are not focused on the post-season, Presti said. Were focused on doing things on a day-to-day basis that help build our habits so that if we do get to the post-season, it transfers and were playing our best basketball at that point in time. I think the way that happens is that you dont focus on the post-season. You focus on the things that are in front of you and making those decisions on a daily basis that help build your standard of play. The Thunder appear to have another on the rise. Backup point guard Reggie Jackson emerged last season while Westbrook sat out with a knee injury, and he joined Westbrook as a starter during the playoffs. Jackson becomes a restricted free agent after the season. Presti would like to re-sign Jackson early, but if it doesnt happen, the Thunder still want him around. We want to invest in Reggie, Presti said. Theres not a lack of clarity in that respect. Another rising star is Steven Adams. The 7-foot centre made a name for himself in the second-round playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers last season. Presti feels the second-year player needs to overcome adversity and deal with added responsibility before he deserves high praise. Until he has those setbacks and hes able to build a body of work that shows us that hes going to be able to continue to grow through those things, we have to reserve our expectations, Presti said. But we couldnt be happier to have him as a part of the organization. ' ' '
