The Boston Bruins got less than 48 hours off between eliminating the Toronto Maple Leafs and opening their second-round series against the Florida Panthers. But because of the emotional high of surviving the seven-game scare against the Leafs, Boston's captain embraced the idea of getting right back to work against another rival."We're feeling really good about our game," Marchand said in a media session after Game 7 against Toronto.
"There's seven games for a reason," Hammonds Plains' Marchand said."Teams that get into the playoffs, they all deserve to be there and they all have a ton of pride. So when you get down in a series, you push. pushed very hard and they did a great job of getting back in the series and made it tough. He and the Colorado Avalanche enjoyed a few days off after eliminating the Winnipeg Jets in five games in the first round. Meanwhile, the Dallas Stars needed seven gruelling games to get past the Golden Knights so the Avalanche are leaning into the opposite mindset of Marchand and the Bruins.
