Bruins Daily: Boston Bruins Facing Elimination; Bennett Punch Confirmed

The Boston Bruins are facing elimination for the second time in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

After blowing a 2-0 lead and losing 3-2 to the Florida Panthers in Game 4, the Boston Bruins could be sent golfing if they lose to their Atlantic Division rivals in Game 5 on Tuesday night in Game 5 in Sunrise, Florida. The Bruins surely have themselves to blame for their sire situation but there’s a valid case to be made that officiating and video review have played a role as well.
