PHILADELPHIA -- Danny Briere rediscovered his scoring touch and Ilya Bryzgalov continued to thwart opposing scorers. Briere scored a pair of goals, Bryzgalov made 23 saves and the Philadelphia Flyers clinched a playoff berth with a 4-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night. Briere had just one goal in his last 29 games entering Saturday and that was an empty-netter. Before that, the last time Briere scored was Jan. 8 against Ottawa when he had a hat trick. "I wasnt playing as well earlier and I was scoring and probably the last three weeks I was playing better," said Briere, who has 16 goals this season. "The chances were there, but I just couldnt finish. I knew at some point it was going to turn." Meanwhile, Bryzgalov continued his hot play. He improved his record this month to 10-1-1 while making several excellent saves from close range. "He made some big saves for us," Philadelphia coach Peter Laviolette said. "We got a little careless at times with what we were doing out there. There werent a lot of quality chances, but there were some really good ones and we needed big saves and he gave them to us. "He seems really confident, big in the net, hes there before the shot comes and hes set up. Hes a big guy and hes like a wall right now. Our guys feed off that a little bit. Hes been a big part of why weve had a good March." Three of Philadelphias four goals came on the power play, upping the Flyers league-leading total to 61. "We didnt have a good night and they did a good job," said Montreals Tomas Plekanec, who scored the Canadiens goal. "They shot the puck at the right time, got it through with a good screen with those first two goals and the third goal, which was big tonight, there was a (line) change." Brieres second goal put the Flyers up 3-1 with 2:20 left in the second period. Jaromir Jagr took a long outlet pass from Bryzgalov at the Flyers blue line and flicked it on to Briere, who got one-on-one with Canadiens goalie Peter Budaj and roofed a forehand shot from in close. "It was a great heads-up play by (Bryzgalov)," Briere said. "He saw that they were all changing. A little bit of a breakdown on their part and we were able to take advantage of that." Besides getting his second assist of the season, Bryzgalov was strong in goal again. His most impressive saves came in the first periodd when he stopped Aaron Palushaj and Frederic St-Denis on shots from right in front of the goal. Authentic Cheap MLB Jerseys. He also denied Erik Cole on a breakaway with a glove save. "Its great," Bryzgalov said. "Were focused on playing the proper way, playing good hockey. Were battling hard. Sometimes were lucky. Its tough to complain." Briere put the Flyers ahead 2-1 with a power-play goal 7:57 into the second period after deflecting Matt Carles wrist shot from the point past Budaj. Montreal had tied it 4 minutes earlier on Plekanecs breakaway tally. Plekanec got in on Bryzgalov and scored on a pretty backhand move, just sneaking the puck past the sprawling Bryzgalov. The Flyers had taken a 1-0 lead midway through the first period when Kimmo Timonen rocketed a slap shot from the blue line that zoomed past Budaj into the upper left corner of the goal. Matt Read added a goal with 1:53 left in the game for the Flyers on a one-timer from just in front of the crease. "I think the opportunities to shoot the puck were there and when we dont take those opportunities, its tough to turn around and have them come back the other way," Montreal coach Randy Cunneyworth said. "So we look at those opportunities that we kind of didnt take advantage of." The loss officially eliminated the struggling Canadiens from playoff contention. "Its tough," Montreals Ryan White said. "Were the guys in here that are frustrated with it. Obviously, you want to make the playoffs and have a chance to win the Cup, and the worst thing about it is we dont have a chance to win the Cup this year. So, its frustrating for sure. "Were going to have to come back with a chip on our shoulder for sure next year. Its frustrating, we got behind at the start of the season, and its tough climbing an uphill battle. We just didnt do a good enough job again." Notes: Flyers captain Chris Pronger received a standing ovation when he was introduced to the crowd late in the first period.
