What A Painful Way To Lose A Series 

It's great seeing people blame Swayman for the Bruins losing, it shows just how many people don't get the game.

Swayman gave the Bruins every chance to win. Hard to win a series when the team in front isn't giving him goal support. I'm furthest from a Bruin fan, but you can't hang this on Sway

Going 1-6 at home in the past 2 series vs Florida is staggering.

That wasnt Swaymans fault, Forsling even shot that puck without looking at the net + thru the defencemens legs

As a panthers fan I will say Swayman was amazing that series we had so many scoring opportunities but swayman was out of his mind and was making great saves

It wasn't Swaymans fault. Sometimes life just gives you a middle finger.

The city of Boston owes Swayman an apology.

Sway carried this team on his shoulders. We need more goals next year.

That is a definite glare, I've been on the receiving end of that in years gone by.

As a Rangers fan I was pissed the Bruins couldn't get this done. We haven't seen the Bruins in the post in years. That original 6 rivalry would of been kick ass

Anyone who wants to blame Sway, no. Sway was the best player in the playoffs thus far. His team was mediocre at best in front of him. Bruins had no chance vs Florida

Carter Verheaghe man, i don't know why he's never quoted immediately amongst the very top players of the NHL but the number of clutch goals & assists he puts out during the season and at key playoffs moments like that is truly something to behold. That sneaky poke-check pass just after a shot to where Barkov is gonna be, poking amongst 3 Bruins with 2 of them with their sticks already on the puck or so so close to max out the pressure that is every bit as impressive and skilful to me than whatever speedy deke a McDavid can pull off. Some would brush this off saying "oh he's just lucky there" but that's the thing with Carter, have a serious look at his game guys it's never ever just pure luck, it's a constant creation of chances and a mastery of those seemingly insignificant details that are in fact so so hard to control at that level & speed and so often make it work. That's what separates him from so many average players, from almost all of them actually. Carter "clutch" Verheaghe.

Man I feel for Swayman, he definitely was heartbroken by the fact that he was not only screened but just wasn’t covering the post.

Swayman was great in net in both series. Beating him was like mission impossible. Swayman without question was Bruins MVP.

Marchand having a rough time meeting his tormentor…..but he can serve it up. Cry me a river.

Swayman was great. But looking forward to seeing the cats play the rangers. They need to bring the third period intensity every period.

You think that’s painful… Avs lost in 2OT to their former superstar

What a year for a rebuilding Bruins team. I can't wait to see what they do this off-season with a ton of cap space!!!

anyone blaming Swayman is a total idiot. He’s the main reason this series was competitive.

Bruins and losing in heartbreaking fashion to the Florida panthers at home, name a more iconic duo

I’m happy with the bruins. They had they’re chance. They weren’t supposed to be here. The future looks never ending for Boston. Sad loss. But plenty of upside unlike a lot of other teams who lost post season

AS much as it pains me to say it , the future is looking pretty good in Boston . Stud goalie , decent forwards and decent defense . Finding the right players to fit the playstyle of Boston will be the hardest part . IF nothing else , if they continue to make the playoffs and face The Leafs in the first round , they'll have a good laugh at least .

Pentaly calls: 34-Bruins 4-Panthers

One of the most entertaining series I've seen in a while.

I’d love a Bruins offseason analysis. Only sweet part about losing in the playoffs is the planning of next season and the directions it can go

The sad thing is that the Boston should have even up the series in this game. They really did the best game in the playoffs 2024. It is three person that really have under produced- Montgomery, Pasta and McAvoy

I cant blame swayman. Guy did all he could. The bruins couldn't generate shit after game 1. Can't win games generating 12 shots on goal a game

Wow i saw my friend in the highlights lol!

Crazy the bruins made it this far this year with this roster… grab lindholm and a solid wing, def trade ullmark and go deep next year!

How do bruin fans feel about Charlie mcavoy? I remember him being a lot better. He looked pretty terrible all playoffs. Was he injured or something

Bruins didn’t just lose Bergeron and Kreijci. They lost Hall and Foligno as well.

R.I.P. 💀2024🪦

Blaming Swayman is the most casual take anybody can have coming out of this series. Having said that, we ended up with the most exciting series possible. As a HOCKEY fan Rangers/Panthers is the series you want. As a RANGERS fan? I definitely wanted Boston 😂.

hahaha i never saw the glare swayman gave him last night but watching that back now after u point it out he's 100% giving him the death stare after that goal

Boston lost all three home games. That’s on GM Don Sweeney not obtaining enough fire power.

Good Video!

Looking forward to your video on the Bruins' off-season. Thanks!

They over performed this year and I’ll take that as a step in the right direction. Definitely need a lot of work, but for a team initially projected to miss the playoffs, I can’t be mad at getting a couple extra weeks of watching them play.

so many game winning goals in the last 2 minutes of the game this year

Just subscribed. Still really upset about this and it was heartbreaking. Hockey is such a grueling, tough sport to play and I just mutually feel for every team in every league. Swayman did all he could and that's often the case when a team loses- one player trying to carry the load. However, time to move on and this Rangers/Panthers series is gonna be epic! I just played the song "When The War Is Over" by Little Rive Band before this and you could listen to it and see this whole series as a different kind of war- but in hockey the war is never over..

I could see the Bruins trading Ullmark. The Bruins aren't afraid to make changes, which I'd say is a large reason why they are consistently good.

I feel pretty good actually. We've seen what Swayman can do, just put a complete team in front of him in the next couple years

Pasta was a ghost in playoffs apart from that one goal.

You're Awesome.

Original 6 guy all the way, so this one hurt. Boston's the team I love to hate in the regular season (being a buds fan and all) but they're my eastern conference playoff team, so this was a major upset. But gotta hand it to Officer Bobrovski once again; there's a reason he's the number 1 cop on the force. Rangers better get it done.

Panthers/Rangers is a series with so many villains it's going to be fun to watch as a neutral.

Swayman played great. That said, we see a ton of goals like this in today's game,due to the style of on the knees goaltending that permiates hockey. In the days of more upright goalies these type of goals (not to mention wraparounds) were a rarity.As in all eras of the game though,we still have great goaltenders.

Swayman pushed the team to a potential game 7. You can't blame him for the rest of the team not scoring the goals when it mattered. I'm neither a Bruins fan nor a Panthers fan but I still would have liked to see a game 7. Congrats to Florida for the win

Please dive into bruins’ offseason!

Love to see it

I’m excited we have 20 mil cap space also I know a lot of bruins fans are hurt but I think this is a great sign a team I thought might not make it to the playoffs battled the cup favourite in the second with players 3rd and 4th liners playing good on the 1st line competing with players like Matthew tkachuk and barkov and beating players like matthews and nylander

I definitely saw that glare from Swayman lol.

Rangers Panthers I can wait forever regarding this series…Go Bruins!

i mean bruins were basically rebuilding on the fly. no one even thought they would make the playoffs , let alone win a round. then took panthers to 6 games , with the refs help and marchand out 2 and half games. i’m pretty sure bruins and their fans are ok with it.

As a Bruins fan, it was rough. The 1st goal I think Swayman wasn't ready for. It looked like one that he would put his body in front of or shift a bit more toward the left, but he barely reacted. That 2nd goal though; just the most unfortunate combination of screened by own defensemen, puck on end, no looked between defenses legs. No way in hell is that one on Swayman, not this game and not the series. He was the main reason we got this far, no doubt. I get we like to take our time with shooting to let stuff develop, but there are some times (like our PP at the end of game 4 vs Panths) where we just needed to rip some at net. Swayman starts 12 of 13 games, we only have more SOG in 2 games total. A really heartbreaking end, but still hopeful going into the offseason.

reffing was so messed up all playoffs for all teams. Ref qualifications: 1. visual impairment 2. questionable judgment 3. need to control the game

Man that hurt. I don't know what they're gonna do to my Bruins team for '24-'25 but I'm sure there will be some moves made.

I'm not sure the panthers can bring the cup home with Bobrovski constantly fumbling his stick...

there was such little room, and it still went

Ah yes, Goalie Death Stares. That one likely more lethal than usual given it was a late series-winning goal in the playoffs.

EXCELLENT, Wooo-Hooo, so friggin please marchand is OUT!!!!!!! Great result. Just a shame marchand did not get the career ending injury he deserves, so we could watch it again and again and again!

I`m the Bruins, I`d take a look what it would cost to move Draisaitl out of EDM. They need a goalie, and Ullmark should have a huge value for them. Otherwise, Toronto has the same need. They have been a great regular season team, but this is the 2nd year in a row that sees them eliminated by the Panthers.

would love to see a bruins offseason vid!

Longtime bruins fan here in Canada! I’d rather see the B’s lose in OT rather than at the end of the 3rd period. The cats are definitely a force to be reckoned with. Fun series!

Bye bye marchy 😂

would love a deep dive video into the bruins offseason potential johnny

Can't blame Swayman for that series winning goal. It would have been miraculous if he would have seen it in time to react to it. That was just the perfect shot. I would have to say that was just abysmally bad luck for him.

Panthers fan here -> what shocked me the most so far in this playoffs is, how Kuch and Pasta totally disappeared. If your biggest star in the team can't make a difference, who can? Look how Barky, Rhino or Chucky steps up. Our second scoring (Anton!), defence and goalie are just great, with Matthew, Carter and Sam showing their guts and strong mentality. I dont want to be overoptimistic, but for me Panthers has got the most complete roster in the NHL right now. The only player in our roster who is a little disappointing for me, is Ekbald, both regualar season and PO. I know, injures, but damn, you take 7,5m for something, especialy compared to Gus or Monty. english is not my native so i hope its understandable.. :D

Boston working hard on their own choker title recently.

Not that the shakes need goaltending 😂, but I personally wouldn’t mind ullmark at all. Always loved the guy in Buffalo and can help a serious rebuilding sharks team in the right direction if not be apart of it going forward

*MacAvoy just sells the game for no reason* watch the last like 1 minute before the goal. Kid refuses to shoot on the best chance hes gotten all playoffs. Then he tries to take it off the halfwall to middle ice in the O zone with under a minute left, rather than just shoot or dump it. Then he goes cross ice out of position the whole time til the goal is scored.

What drugs are you on? First, after Bergeron and Krejci retired and Foligno went to the Blackhawks we were told not even to expect to make it to the Playoffs. Then the whole Lucic mess and Matty Poitras getting injured. And if you didn't notice, a good part of our Playoff team had been doing the I95 shuffle because they were with the Providence Bruins - Beecher, Brazeau, Lohrei, Brown, and Lauko aren't officially Boston Bruins. Yeah, I'm a Bruins fan, but seriously, all things considered they did awesome.

I LOVE that so many of these videos are obituaries for Boston. Dab those tears ladies

Swayman said as literally the SOLE reason why this series didn’t end in five games. He’s the last person to blame here :/

Refs stole a game form the Bruins with that non call in game 4

Not only was swayman basically the reason they got as far as they did but its hard for the bruins to expect to have won when they couldn't keep the puck. Just looking at the shots on goal is telling. Games 2-4 they couldn't get the puck. Then they kept giving away powerplays. Game 1 - Bruins - 29, Panthers - 39 | 5-1 to Bruins Game 2 - Bruins - 15, Panthers - 33 | 1-6 to Panthers Game 3 - Bruins - 17, Panthers - 33 | 2-6 to Panthers Game 4 - Bruins - 18, Panthers - 41 | 2-3 to Panthers Game 5 - Bruins - 28, Panthers - 29 | 2-1 to Bruins Game 6 - Bruins - 23, Panthers - 28 | 1-2 to Panthers

I think you meant forehand backhand. Liam got it wrong live as well😂

Ullmark has a no trade clause, hopefully can figure it out and we can be successful next year. Shocking year with how bad the roster was. Tough way to go out

Swayman was the reason the Bruins had a shot at winning that game. The guy stood on his head again.

not just controversial.. but wrong calls.. esp the Bennett fiasco of punching a concussion & obstructing goalie... both penalties & a suspension.... but flipped a W to a L. but FL works so hard.. & lots of finishers... VeryClose

They need a center that can win face offs.

This game had me stressed i thought it was gonna be ot haha, i dont even know how that gw goal even got in

First admittedly Swayman is excellent. He burned us badly in the first round. But as a Leafs fan I cannot help but take glee in Boston's loss. Suck on it!

TD Garden is the unofficial second home of the Florida Panthers fr 💀

And then the Avalanche said hold my beer

I don't like how far ahead the eastern conference is getting from the western conference... like.. they're a full 2 scheduled games ahead of the last schedule match up in EDM vs VAN... feels like they're trying to give the eastern boys a rest before they go up against the western teams in the final

FLA NYR is going to be one physical rocking boat

It was a ridiculous goal - I’d say 1 in 100 at least. Crazy it happened at that time….

I feel bad for Swayman on this one... Getting screened by your own guys is one of the most frustrating things that can possibly happen to a goalie.

Where are the fans that screamed for goalie rotation? Swayman is elite, Bruins need a #1 centerman and a big tough D man.

The East has the Conference Final ready. Who in the West is going to the Western Conference Final: Dallas, Edmonton, Colorado, or Vancouver? Which two? One from each division.

Swayman was awesome. He was always squared up to the shooter. It’s not his fault.

1:14 anyone blaming swayman is RIDICULOUS he did everything he could have on that play and he is one of the main reasons the bruins made it this far in the first place. Looking at that play he can’t see that puck so his entire decision has to be based on what he can see, which is that forsling is pointed away from then net taking a contested sharp angle shot, 9 times out of ten that’s going to be a 5-hole shot that doesn’t get off the ice due to how forsling has to shoot it behind his body like that, only the puck happened to be on end so it got the lift it needed to go high. Zero chance for swayman to have guessed that the puck was on end, the only way he makes that save is luck, nothing to do with his skill as a goalie. Swayman was unreal this season, he just didn’t have the team to back it up, the bruins are shit besides him and Pasternak

Pasta looked like absolute shit the entire playoff run and people blame Swayman. lmao. I definitely almost cried when they lost, they gave us so much hope with that game 5.

Both teams played very well, no reason to make wholesale changes over a series that could have easily went either way.

that boston fan on the thumbnail was just speechless its not even funny 💀

I have no idea who is gonna win the eastern conference. Both teams have been beasts. NYR may have an edge but you cant count the cats out by any means.

I am not mad at all and its not too painful. We just need to rebuild and im excited for the off season keep debrusk (If he wants too) and grzelcyk and maybe forbort and get rid of the rest resign swayman for say 6mil if he allows it debrusk for 4 or 5 forbort for 2 grzelcyk for 3 and find some depth scoring for the 2nd and 3rd line. I like ullmark I would keep him because it would be tough to ruin the tandem but if we need to trade him for a solid 2nd line star we should. theres no super stars right now outside swayman and pasta and mcavoy marchand kind of lost the juice hes a solid 2nd liner now we need a 6-8mil player that can put up 30+ goals on the season and hopefully put up points in playoffs. Swayman can show he can carry in playoffs and the work load isnt too much for him in playoffs but our offence didnt wake up.

You keep both of those goalies.....seriously....they are worth gold !!!!...they are so close in talent....Boston is still a good enough team to win one day....!!!

People aren’t blaming swayman, I think ppl just did like how he tried to blame the defenseman for that softball final goal
