The Florida Panthers staved off elimination and have forced a dramatic game seven in Boston after a crazy 7-5 win in Florida Friday night.
The Panthers led 2 to 1 at the end of the first period and 3-2 after two and that set up an absolutely crazy third frame.
Bruins Coach Jim Montgomery said it was one of those games that both teams were making amazing plays offensively.
A total of seven goals were scored in the third period.
The Bruins out shot Florida 34-33. They were also three for four on the power play.
Truly no lead was safe in this one.
Boston was actually ahead in the third period at 4-3 and 5-4 and then the Panthers scored three straight goals.
Game seven will be played in Boston on Sunday night at 6:30.
Boston has not named a goaltender for that game.
There has been speculation that Coach Jim Montgomery will make a goal tending switch to Jeremy Swayman, but nothing has been said yes about the game seven start.
