Whenever an NHL team gets 140 points in a season, at this point I think people might start predicting the WC2 team to win the series lol

Reminder to everyone that Marchand had a breakaway up 3-1 in the series in the final seconds of regulation in a tie game in game 5

That should be worrisome given recent results

I'm still trying to process the fact that Florida will be in the 2nd round instead of Boston

I don't think anyone survives the Bruins "culture" for very long before becoming unlikable. Respect, okay, but liked?
Being chintzy is pretty much their identity. If "cup checks" were a tracked statistic they would hold all the records, for example.

We don’t have any words and know you don’t want to hear them.

We understand your anger, your frustration, your sadness. Everything you’re feeling - we get it.

This isn’t the ending we imagined, and certainly not the one we wanted. Thank you for being there the entire way.

Panthers didn't even finish in the top half of the league in the regular season. They were 17th in the league

No disrespect to the panthers, I'm a firm believer that Florida winning in Game 7 is a huge fluke and robs the Bruins of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few seconds in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching the Bruins play great hockey it's just not fair.

If the Bruins lose again I will face that the Panthers deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Bruins and the NHL.

If they were healthy, Carolina. But they aren’t. So either Edmonton or Toronto

One of the Leafs/Panthers is guaranteed a spot in the Conference Finals. Let that sink in.

Everyone's gonna say Carolina, but that's not the right answer.
