The Bruins will welcome the Florida Panthers to Boston in a rematch of last year’s thrilling first round series. The record-breaking season for Boston ended in dismay, as Florida defeated Boston in 7 games, including a late Game 7 comeback at TD Garden. Boston fans will not have forgotten that day, so expect a raucous crowd on Saturday afternoon. Both teams have been incredible this season, representing two of the best records in the Eastern Conference. Each has qualified for the playoffs already but still would like to improve upon their points totals as they face off for the number one seed. The Bruins (45-17-15) have suffered from poor overtime play as evidenced by their 15 losses in that fashion, giving them a 4-point cushion in the Eastern Conference standings. Such defeats are concerning for a team heading into the playoffs when overtime games are frequent. The Panthers (48-24-5) have converted many of their overtime chances into wins, but still trail Boston despite 3 more wins.

Our Boston Bruins vs Florida Panthers Prediction

Traditional wisdom would favor Boston at home, especially considering the poor stretch Florida has found themselves in recently. However, the Panthers have been undervalued for a while now, boasting the most prolific shooting team in the league while also having the best defensive team in the league in terms of goals against. After a 6-0 drubbing of Ottawa on the road, the Panthers improved to 15-5 in their last 20 road games. Expect their traveling successes to continue on Saturday in a close, defensive battle that may prove to be a preview of the playoffs yet again.
