Tim Thomas played a tremendous game against his former team, but ultimately took the loss in the Panthers' 4-1 defeat to the Bruins on Tuesday night.
Thomas stopped 35 of 38 shots for the second game in a row, but unlike Sunday's victory in New York, the Panthers were outplayed and defeated by a superior Bruins team. Thomas falls to 16-20-3 this season, and will now have to compete with newcomer Roberto Luongo for starts down the stretch.

Tim Thomas is willing to return to the Florida Panthers next season.
"I'm certainly willing to entertain the idea. I haven't talked to the club about that," Thomas said Monday. "I was hoping by this time to be seeing more team success. That's been a little bit difficult. Having said that, it's a process. I knew coming into it where the team was last year. I bought into this process, and what we're trying to do is turn it around." Thomas is playing with the Panthers on a one-year deal worth $3.75 million. The veteran goalie has a 14-16-3 record with a .911 save percentage and a 2.79 GAA this season.

Tim Thomas isn't expected to be fined or suspended for his goalie stick chop to the side of Boston's Carl Soderberg helmet in Tuesday's game.
"Nobody was really running into me until the end there," Thomas said after the game. "Soderberg, the play before that he did quite a hard jab and then all of the sudden the puck is up in the air, you're catching it, and his stick is in my throat. With less than a minute left in a game and they're up by four goalsI took exception to that." Soderberg was fine and Thomas will probably be in goal for Thursday's game against Toronto.
