Flyers overcome Boucher injury to take Game 5

Hockey Betting Lines

05/10/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Simon Gagne scored a pair of goals while Michael Leighton returned from a long layoff and filled in for the injured Brian Boucher, helping the Philadelphia Flyers dominate the Boston Bruins, 4-0, in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals from TD Garden.

Leighton, who hasn't played since March 16 and missed almost eight weeks with a high left ankle sprain, held off the home team for the final 35:25 of the contest by stopping all 14 shots he faced.

Boucher, the starter, left early in the second period with a lower-body injury after making nine stops but nonetheless received credit for the victory.

Ville Leino added a goal and one assist while Scott Hartnell also tallied for the Flyers, who have won the last two games in the series after dropping the first three and head home for Game 6 on Wednesday.

Philadelphia halted a seven-game road playoff losing streak to Boston, dating back to Game 3 of the 1977 Stanley Cup semifinals, and also blanked the B's for the first time in the postseason since clinching Game 6 of the 1974 Cup Finals.

Tuukka Rask allowed all four goals on 31 shots in defeat for the Bruins, who still lead the series 3-2 despite suffering their first home loss of the 2010 postseason after five straight wins.

Boston suffered its first home playoff shutout loss since Game 2 of last year's conference semifinals against Carolina.
