Florida Panthers DFS SPIN
Per Steve Goldstein of Fox Sports Florida, the Panthers will deploy the same lineup they used in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Bruins for Sunday’s Game 7, indicating Sergei Bobrovsky will protect the road goal. Bobrovsky was a little shaky in Friday’s Game 6, surrendering five goals on 34 shots, but he was still able to do enough to pick up a second straight victory and force a Game 7. The 34-year-old vet will try to secure his third win of the postseason and help propel the Panthers to the second round in a rematch with the same Boston squad on the road Sunday night.
Boston Bruins DFS SPIN
David Pastrnak potted two power-play goals in Friday’s 7-5 loss to the Panthers in Game 6 of the Bruins’ first-round series. His second tally gave Boston a 4-3 lead early in the third period, but the game spiraled out of control after that for the Presidents’ Trophy winners. After erupting for a career-high 61 goals and 113 points in the regular season, Pastrnak has been curiously quiet to begin the postseason, and this was his first multi-point performance in six games. The 26-year-old may need to rise to the occasion Sunday in Game 7 if the Bruins are going to avoid one of the most shocking first-round exits in NHL playoff history.
