Forty goals, 40 home wins and plenty more reasons for Philadelphia to feel its best hockey is ahead as the post-season get closer. Carter and Simon Gagne scored early in the third period, and Martin Biron was solid again to lift the Flyers past the New Jersey Devils 4-2 on Monday night. Carter scored his 40th goal and Gagne his 30th only 2:06 apart to hand Martin Brodeur only his third loss in 12 games since returning from biceps surgery.

He has three goals and two assists during the winning streak, helping the Flyers keep their hold on fourth place in the Eastern Conference.

"It was just a matter of time for us to get back on track," Briere said. Brendan Shanahan and Jamie Langenbrunner scored for New Jersey, which missed a chance to clinch a playoff spot.
