Boston Bruins (A1) vs Florida Panthers (WC2) - | Series Tied 3-3

[JTToilinginToronto]

This could go down as the biggest choke in NHL history

Tampa-Columbus series does exist

 

[PromisedLand]

Bruins creating a lot of "records" this year

 

[islesfan186]

Lots of people had Boston going undefeated in the playoffs. This could go down as the biggest upset in NHL history

I still think that honor belongs to the 2019 Bolts. Having the season they did and then being swept. Hell, they started that series up 3-0 in game 1 and blew that game. THAT is a tough act to follow.

The President's Trophy winning Panthers getting swept -- and really, completely bitch-slapped -- by the Lightning last season was probably worse. Trust me on this one, chief.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I can’t believe the Bruins are gonna pull a Leafs and choke away their season

Boston is done now, choke of the season award for them

There is still a game left.

Could be this year’s 2019 TBL but the difference is that they won’t be following it up with back to back Stanley Cups. The Panthers would inevitably get smoked round two.

It's fun to watch the bruins sweat. However, I think they'll pull it out in game 7, and be better off for the adversity they're facing.

To do this , they need to start swayman and they'll win comfortably.

Hope I'm wrong.

As a Leaf fan I was really hoping the Bruins played the Islanders. This isn’t a diss to the Panthers but the Islanders have Sorokin and they still have most of the good players that went toe to toe with Tampa back to back.

They probably would have lost but it would have been a battle for 6/7 games.

Florida outside of a miracle doesn’t have good goaltending and they give up so many good chances which the Bruins will definitely take advantage of.

I see the Panthers losing 4-0 or 4-1 if they manage to steal one game at home.

Lol

The Bolts got swept, which does make it funnier, but I don't think it's a bigger choke. 2023 Boston is literally the winningest team in hockey (surpassing that 2019 Tampa team's records). The '19 Blue Jackets were a 98-point team, while this Florida team is a 92-point team.

If this happens there will be something poetic about $10M Bobrovsky being involved in both historic upsets, though.

I just smashed my TV in front of 30 guests at my party because of the game. My wife just took our crying kids and said they’re all spending the week at a hotel. This team has ruined my life and my party. I can’t handle this anymore. Goodbye Bruins. I am no longer a fan.

jeez i hope you didn't bet big money based on those stupid gambling adds.

PSA: Folks don't waste your hard earned money on gambling. Its a bad thing. Just look at E. Kane

I hope this is satire because this is actually brilliant and hilarious if it is. Or genuinely terrifying

Oh yeah, I forgot Bob was the goalie for CBJ in that series

 

[John Mandalorian]

Tkachuk and Bennett...not bad.

 

[These Are The Days]

The Bruins blew a 3-0 series lead and were an OT goal away from putting the Flyers away in game 4. This wouldn't even be their worst choke of the last decade or so

 

[ChuckW]

Its a dangerous series...

1-Before start of season, florida was favorite to win the division... the sewson didn't started in a good way but they finished strong...

2- they dont have nothing to loose

3- they are alreasy in playoff mode and fighting for their life since a month

4- Boston didn't face a lot of adversity this season...

Honestly i got the feeling than panther will upset Boston

This guy is the smartest person in this thread. Even Florida's own fans didn't see it coming.

 

[DavidpauseReinbacher]

Wow imagine losing this to paul lolll. Worst coach in the league and worst iteration of the panthers core we have seen in some time. Dont choke this lolol.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Should be an easy series for Boston.

Just stay healthy and end it in at most 5 games for the extra rest for the old guys.

Ouch!

 

[CatscratchFever]

I hope this turns out epically awesome for the Cats.

the epicness of that series CHOKE was that they were not only up 3-0 in the series and then blew the next three games. They were up 3-0 in Game 7 and found a way to lose in spectacular fashion 3-4 to the Flyers

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Nah. Copypasta from a Cowboys fan many years ago that I found on Twitter.

There's nothing stopping you from still doing it

 

[authentic]

Panthers in 7 it is

 

[Video Nasty]

Love to see it. Even if Florida doesn’t complete the job, it should give the rest of East a ton of confidence that the Bruins can be knocked off.

 

[Squiffy]

2010. They were up 3-0 in game 7.

I think Boston wins game 7 here. But Bruins fans, this is also a guy that think the Leafs get through, so take your pick of putting any stock in my opinion lol..

Hockey gods want Bruins-Leafs next round. Too good in storyline not to happen. Hockey gods are weird in they way they work though.

Ullmark kinda looks ass.

Bruins still win 7

The point differential is worse between Boston and Florida though.

CBJ had more points than Florida and TB had less points than Boston.

This is the largest point differential in the cap-era. Even this season, Florida has the worst goal differential of all the playoffs team, in both conferences. Boston had the highest goal differential in the NHL. It’d be quite the choke if they lose but they haven’t yet. There’s a 43 point difference between these two teams. 43!
