The Boston Bruins’ Florida road trip continued on Nov. 22 as they took on the Florida Panthers. The Bruins were coming off of an overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Nov. 20 while the Panthers had won their last game against the Edmonton Oilers.
It was the second matchup of the season for these two teams which are quickly developing an exciting and feisty rivalry. Between the Panthers defeating the Bruins in the first round of the 2022 Playoffs and their first meeting this season with Charlie McAvoy landing a hit on Oliver Ekman-Larsson that saw him facing a four-game suspension, the bad blood is clearly present between these teams. Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that they are one and two in the division at the moment.

This offseason, Bergeron retired to end a remarkable career and end an era for the Bruins.
