Bobrovsky stopped 39 shots for the Bruins , who entered having scoring one goal or fewer in four of their past six games. Pastrnak had given Boston a 3-2 lead with his first goal for the Bruins , just a couple minutes after Reinhart's tying goal 43 seconds into the third. Bruins : Finally found scoring success.

Panthers: Despite the OT loss, Florida remains the only team in the league that hasn't lost a one-goal regulation game. There were several. Wahlstrom fired a loose puck past Bobrovsky on his go-ahead goal — a strong response to Reinhart's tying goal less than two minutes earlier. Pastrnak's goal was deflected on the way into the net 4:58 into overtime. It was the third meeting of the season between the rivals, who have met in the playoffs the past two years — Florida eliminated Boston both times.
