Bruins to Host Panthers in Game 4 of Eastern First Round Series

Panthers Eliminated with Loss to Hurricanes

The Boston Bruins will host the Florida Panthers in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference First Round series on Saturday night, after the Panthers were eliminated from the playoffs with a loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday night.

Series Momentum Shifts

The Bruins took a 2-1 series lead over the Panthers with a 6-2 win in Game 3 on Thursday night. David Pastrnak led the way for Boston with two goals and an assist, while Brad Marchand added a goal and two assists. WEB Tkachuk said last season's series victory over the Bruins, who ran away with the 2022-23 regular season title, was a huge turning point.

The Panthers will be looking to avoid a sweep in Game 4 and force a Game 5 in Sunrise on Monday night. However, they will need to find a way to slow down the Bruins' top line, which has been dominant in the series.

Live Coverage

Live coverage of the Bruins-Panthers game will be available on ESPN, with puck drop scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ET.
