Bruins & Panthers game 4 heats up after Pastrnak sucker punches Lundel
The Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers series was expected to heat up after Sam Bennett's hit on Brad Marchand, a moment that had everyone talking.
Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery and several players hinted at retaliation, suggesting the next game would be one to watch. True to their word, the drama unfolded quickly in Game 4.
The action heated up when David Pastrnak delivered a solid punch to Panthers' Anton Lundell, knocking him to the ice, a moment that drew immediate attention.
The officials didn't let it slide, slapping Pastrnak with a roughing penalty and giving the Panthers a power play opportunity. However, Florida failed to capitalize on the advantage.
Adding to the tension, Pastrnak, fresh out of the penalty box, went on to score the game's first goal. As of right now the Panthers lead 3-2 half way through the third period.
