TOROONTO (AP) - Florida Panthers newcomer Brad Marchand defeated an old enemy on Sunday night at the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Marchand made an empty net and set two other goals in the Florida Panthers' 6-1 victory with the 37-year-old Shie for the 37-year-old Shee Flow in Game 7.

He became the first player in NHL history to win five games after winning four games with the Boston Bruins. Yes, the Toronto fanatic threat likes to hate, laughs again.

“I grew up with Leafs fans and I love playing against Leafs,” Marchand said. "I love interacting with fans. It's fun. I don't take myself too seriously. I love making fun of people, I love making fun of people. If you can't take it, that's it. I'm going to enjoy the moments I have.

"When I come in, I get booed, I'm fine. I'm going to show it. I'll love it."

In a series of series, each team’s first two lines cancel each other, and the Panthers thrived with the depth of Markkand’s third and fourth lines.

Marchand's lap length Anton Lundell and Eetu Luostarinen both scored. Jonah Gadjovich also connected in the fourth game.

Marchand is a deal dive acquisition. However, since he was injured and didn't play, it was difficult for the mixer to get familiar with his new environment. But once he starts playing, he can learn the Panthers’ five-man racing, which is the Stanley Cup champion 2010-11 Bruis Fit Fiend.

Panthers coach Paul Maurice thanked assistant general manager Gregory Campbell for urging Florida trade Marchand. The two are long-term Brown Bear teammates.

"He's an incredible positive spirit," Morris said. "There are sometimes people screaming on the bench and strong. They're getting so wired. He never did."

Morris added that the young men of Lundell and Lustalin had a Markan effect.

"He influenced those people with such an active thinking game and played in small areas, making them feel like those two young people are in them," Morris said.

The senior coach also maintained a perfect Game 7 record. He scored 6-0 in Game 7.

"Game 7 is right for the player," Morris said. "It doesn't matter whether your hands feel. It doesn't matter whether your body feels. It doesn't matter how good your execution is. If you're comfortable in tough situations, then you have a chance."
