There may only be two games on the schedule on the 10th day of playoff action, but the first one is the most important match of the Florida Panthers’ season. Despite playing well to open things versus the Bruins, the Panthers find themselves down 3-1, facing elimination at TD Garden. It appears that Boston will enjoy Patrice Bergeron’s return to action as well, making the task that much more difficult for the East’s second wild-card team to stay alive.
