Florida Panthers DFS SPIN
Sergei Bobrovsky allowed two goals on 25 shots in Wednesday’s 2-1 Game 4 loss to the Maple Leafs. Bobrovsky allowed exactly two goals for the fourth time in as many games this series, but Florida mustered only one tally against Joseph Woll at the other end as the Maple Leafs extended their season. Though Bobrovsky saw his winning streak end at six games, he’s firmly entrenched as the starter in the Panthers’ net and will presumably be in goal against Toronto on the road in Game 5 on Friday.
Toronto Maple Leafs DFS SPIN
Ilya Samsonov (upper body) will miss Game 5 against Florida on Friday, Joshua Clipperton of The Canadian Press reports. Samsonov didn’t play Wednesday after sustaining the injury during Sunday’s 3-2 overtime loss to Florida. He’s 4-4 with a 3.13 GAA and an .898 save percentage in nine playoff contests this year. With Samsonov unavailable, Joseph Woll is expected to start Friday.
