The Florida Panthers have stunned the Boston Bruins.
Not long after setting records for the greatest regular season in history, the Bruins have been eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs after just one round, falling to Florida by a 4-3 final in overtime of Game 7 at TD Garden. The Panthers came back from down 3-1 in the series to clinch it on the Bruins’ ice, tying Game 7 with just 59.3 seconds left in regulation then grabbing the game-winner in OT.
Carter Verhaeghe scored the series-winning goal for Florida, firing from the slot through a lot of traffic to beat Bruins goaltender Jeremy Swayman.
