PHILADELPHIA - Florida rookie Nathan Horton became the youngest player in history to score on a penalty shot and added another goal in the Panthers' 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers on Thursday night.
Valeri Bure scored the winner for the Panthers with 2:04 left in overtime on a slap shot from the left circle that sailed high over the glove of goaltender Jeff Hackett.
Horton, the Panthers' top choice in the 2003 draft, tied the score at 2 with his penalty shot at 3:38 of the second period, beating Hackett high to the glove side. Horton scored after being taken down by Philadelphia's Kim Johnsson.
Horton, who is 18 years, 224 days old, was 38 days younger than Toronto's Jack Hamilton, who set the record in 1944, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Horton assisted on a goal by Mathieu Biron that put the Panthers ahead 3-2 with 1:40 left in the second period. Horton, skating down on a rush, threaded a pass to Biron, who scored from the slot.
Philadelphia's John LeClair tied it at 3 at 3:27 of the third period with a one-timer from the slot.
STARS 2, THRASHERS 1: Steve Ott and Scott Young had goals and Jason Arnott two assists for host Dallas, which improved to 8-0 all-time against Atlanta.
Marty Turco, who learned earlier that he had been voted the Western Conference's starting goaltender for the All-Star Game, had 15 saves for Dallas.
Stars center Mike Modano doesn't expect to skate again until at least next week because of a groin injury.
PREDATORS 4, AVALANCHE 3 (OT): Jason York scored at 1:12 in overtime, and backup goaltender Chris Mason stopped 31 shots for his first career victory for Nashville.
Simon Gamache and Andrew Hutchinson scored their first NHL goals and Greg Johnson added a goal and assist for the Predators, who beat Colorado at home for the first time since Dec. 26, 2000.
Colorado forced overtime when York was called for slashing with 43 seconds left in regulation. Paul Kariya scored his fifth goal on a power play when he poked the puck under Mason's right leg off a rebound of a shot by Joe Sakic.
SENATORS 7, MAPLE LEAFS 1: Bryan Smolinski scored and assisted on two of Ottawa's five first-period goals as the visiting Senators won their sixth straight.

The Maple Leafs recalled defenseman Pierre Hedin from St. John's of the AHL.
HURRICANES 3, RANGERS 2: Josef Vasicek scored twice in a three-goal second as host Carolina won its second straight.
Ron Francis assisted on Vasicek's second goal and passed Marcel Dionne for fourth place on the NHL's career scoring list with 1,772 points.
CANUCKS 3, KINGS 1: Magnus Arvedson scored Vancouver's first two goals, doubling his season total, and Daniel Sedin also scored to help the visiting Canucks extend Los Angeles' winless streak to 10 games.
Kings leading scorer Ziggy Palffy will be out indefinitely because of a dislocated right shoulder that might require season-ending surgery.
BLACKHAWKS 3, FLAMES 1: Steve Sullivan broke a tie with a power-play goal 2:34 into the third period for host Chicago.
The Blackhawks recalled defenseman Anton Babchuk, their first-round pick in the 2002 entry draft, from Norfolk of the AHL.
ISLANDERS 3, OILERS 2: Justin Papineau scored a power-play goal early in the third period and another with 1:18 left as host New York snapped its winless streak at 0-2-1.
BRUINS 3, PENGUINS 1: Patrice Bergeron scored the tiebreaking goal with 2:52 left to help host Boston extend its unbeaten streak to four.
BLUES: Defenseman Barret Jackman, the Calder Trophy winner last season as the NHL's top rookie, is expected to miss the rest of the season with a dislocated left shoulder.
