The Florida Panthers and Toronto Maple Leafs will meet for a crucial Game 5 in their Eastern Conference semifinals on Wednesday at 4 p.m. PST at Scotiabank Arena. The series is tied at 2-2.
After losing the first two games in Toronto, the Panthers rebounded with victories in Games 3 and 4, including a 2-0 shutout in Game 4, in which they outshot the Maple Leafs 37-23.
The Maple Leafs, who went 0-4-0 against Florida in the regular season, aim to regain momentum at home, where they’ve gone 11-1-0 since March 15.
Sergei Bobrovsky (6-3-0, 2.62 GAA) will face Joseph Woll (2-2-0, 3.51 GAA) in goal. Bobrovsky recorded 23 saves in the last game, while Woll stopped 35 of 37 shots.
Florida has won 6 of their last 9 meetings with Toronto and holds a distinct advantage in creating scoring chances during 5-on-5 play.
The Panthers, showing strength on the road, remain a strong pick for Game 5. I like the Panthers and think they win in regulation.
