Bruins Look For Revenge On Panthers

The Boston Bruins fell in the postseason last year to the Florida Panthers, with Florida winning that series in six games. After that, the Panthers won the Stanley Cup, while the Bruins once again had to sit at home disappointed after falling short in the playoffs. Here, the Bruins will look to get even with the Panthers, at least to the extent they can, by winning this year's season opener between them. But there are questions as to whether the Bruins will trend downward this season after two straight phenomenal years. Boston will look to answer those questions starting tonight.

Panthers to Celebrate Cup Triumph

Last season, the Florida Panthers were the clear class of the NHL, winning the Stanley Cup Final in seven games against the Edmonton Oilers. Tonight, they will raise their championship banner to the rafters before facing the Boston Bruins. Florida is once again expected to be among the best teams in the NHL this year. But there will always be questions about how teams handle themselves when celebrating a championship to open the next season. As long as the Panthers can put their trademark pressure on the puck before it gets into their defensive zone, they could be just as good in this game as they were all of last season.

Bruins vs Panthers Prediction

We are expecting a thrilling Bruins vs Panthers matchup to open this season for both of these teams. But our best bet is for the Panthers to win at home to open up their campaign. Florida has clearly had Boston's number over the last couple of seasons and that trend should continue in what should be the game of the night in the NHL on the first day with multiple games on the schedule.
