    • Loses close Game 5
      Bobrovsky allowed two goals on 28 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Bruins in Game 5.

      Advice: Bobrovsky's loss came on thin margins, as Morgan Geekie and Charlie McAvoy had the goals for the Bruins. McAvoy's goal was reviewed for goaltender interference, but it was upheld. Bobrovsky has lost both games in the second round where he's faced more than 20 shots, which could be problematic if he can't clutch up with the Bruins upping their intensity while facing elimination. It's a near guarantee Bobrovsky will get the nod for Friday's Game 6 in his second chance to send the Panthers to the Eastern Conference Finals. Rotowire.com Today, 7:34 pm
       
    • Keeps series going
      Swayman stopped 28 of 29 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Panthers in Game 5.

      Advice: Swayman snapped a three-game losing streak with the effort, which saw him allow the lone goal to Sam Reinhart in the second period. The Bruins still face an uphill battle, but it's likely to be Swayman who will have the chance to keep their season going. He's 6-5 over 11 playoff outings and has allowed two or fewer goals in eight of those contests. Game 6 is Friday in Boston. Rotowire.com Today, 7:10 pm
       
    • Starting Game 5
      Swayman will protect the road goal versus the Panthers in Tuesday's Game 5, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Swayman has allowed 12 goals during his three-game losing streak, but head coach Jim Montgomery is sticking with the 25-year-old with the Bruins' season on the line. Through 10 playoff outings, Swayman has a 2.28 GAA and a .930 save percentage, though he has lost two of his last three road games. Rotowire.com Today, 3:34 pm
       
    • Shorthanded goal in loss
      Trouba netted a shorthanded goal in Monday's 4-1 loss to Carolina in Game 5.

      Advice: Trouba opened the scoring in the second period by firing a wrist shot past Carolina's Frederik Andersen, but that was it for New York's offensive output in the tilt. It was Trouba's first marker of the playoffs. The 30-year-old defenseman also had two shots on goal, three hits and four blocked shots in 18:38 of ice time. Trouba has four points (one goal) and a plus-1 rating in nine outings during the postseason. Rotowire.com Today, 9:33 am
       
    • Starting in Game 5
      Bobrovsky will patrol the home crease in Game 5 versus the Bruins on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

      Advice: Bobrovsky hasn't been at his best versus the Bruins, posting an .885 save percentage through the first four games of the series, but he's still gone 3-1 over that stretch thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. He'll attempt to secure a fourth straight win over Boston and punch Florida's ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals on home ice Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 9:00 am
       
    • Bags power-play assist
      Nurse notched a power-play assist, four shots on goal, three hits and two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks in Game 3.

      Advice: Nurse snapped a four-game dry spell with his helper on a Mattias Ekholm tally in the first period. The 29-year-old Nurse has been limited to two assists over eight playoff outings, and he's added 17 shots on net, 13 hits, 22 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating. He's played on the second pairing, with Ekholm leapfrogging Nurse for a spot alongside Evan Bouchard on the top pairing. Nurse can still add some physicality, but his offense is likely to be limited with less ice time. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:39 pm
       
    • Solid outing in loss
      Swayman made 38 saves on 41 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers in Game 4.

      Advice: Swayman was stellar Sunday night but it wasn't enough as Boston was heavily outplayed by Florida in the loss. The 25-year-old netminder was provided a two-goal lead in the first period before the Panthers scored three unanswered goals over the final two frames. Swayman and the Bruins find themselves on the brink of elimination heading back to Florida for Game 5 on Tuesday. Overall this postseason, the Boston goaltender has a 5-5 record with a 2.28 GAA and a .931 save percentage. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:35 pm
       
    • Three straight wins
      Bobrovsky made 16 saves on 18 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over Boston in Game 4.

      Advice: It was another light workload for the Russian netminder -- this was the third consecutive matchup that Boston has failed to top 18 shots on goal, and also the third straight game in which Bobrovsky allowed two or fewer goals. Bobrovsky was beaten twice in the first period but kept the door shut over the final 40 minutes of the contest. Overall this postseason, Bobrovsky is 7-2 with a 2.55 GAA and an .892 save percentage. Bob and the Panthers will attempt to eliminate the Bruins in Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:02 pm
       
    • Guarding cage Sunday
      Swayman will get the starting nod at home against the Panthers for Game 4 on Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Swayman has been plastered with nine goals on 55 shots over the last two games but it hasn't been enough for Boston to flip back to Linus Ullmark. This will mark nine straight starts for Swayman dating back to the first round against Toronto. During his last eight games, he's posted a .925 save percentage while picking up four wins.
