This series should be over but a series of miscues by the Bruins in their last effort against the Panthers culminated in a Game 5 setback. A poor decision by the projected Vezina Trophy winner, Linus Ullmark, turned a routine play into a disaster and the Panthers skated out of Boston with a 4-3 overtime decision.
The good news for the Bruins is that Patrice Bergeron is back, he even scored a goal in his return, but the bad news is that David Krejci remains on the shelf and his absence has hindered superstar David Pastrnak, who has only two goals, no assists, and a -2 rating in five playoff games thus far.
The Bruins will deliver a much more concerted effort in this one and I suspect they will not only put a bow on this series on Friday night but will do it in style. Let’s lay the 1 ½ goals on the road with the favorites and cash a ticket.
