“All nine games, Carter was our most consistent progression,” Maurice said of Werhoge. “Playoff hockey is hockey he understands. It resonates with him. It plays at a very high pace. It’s very physical. That’s his best. Everything is lined up for him.”
According to NHL statistics, Verhaeghe joined Corey Perry, Alex Ovechkin and Patrick Kane to achieve his fifth-game winning goal out of 11 active players.

Max Domi will be in the Maple Leafs lineup in Game 5.
He also has a little less money in his bank account.
The Player Safety Bureau announced Monday that Panthers captain Alexander Barkov had been fined $5,000 for boarding Panthers’ Alexander Barkov, who was only a few seconds left at the end of Game 4, Domi was fined $5,000 for boarding Panthers’ Alexander Barkov.
“I have no thoughts today,” Maurice said when asked to comment on the decision. “That’s not my job. Others do it.”
Luckily to escape unharmed, Barkov was sent to the head of the board with a surprise hit from behind Domi, a play that receives more severe punishment from the NHL.
“Obviously he’s about to run at Berkey at the end of there,” Bennett said. “The boys jumped into the verse and pasted it and did a good job. It was a physical series, so I’m looking forward to it more.”
All fanbases like to insist that other teams are receiving priority treatment, but the numbers show that they don’t fit into the Stanley Cup defensive champion.
In Round 2, Maple Leaf currently has a 15-14 edge in the power play.
Overall, the Panthers also lost two guys’ games due to pause in the playoffs between rounds 1 and 2 this year, but they’re just one opponent totaling.
Going forward, the Panthers are focused on winning Game 5.
Big Game Bob
Just another day it was Bobrovsky.
Entering Brickwall mode in Game 4, the two-time Vezina Trophy winner was outstanding for the Panthers when he needed him most.
The amount of shots wasn’t that high, but the quality was pretty accurate.
Of his 23 saves, seven were considered high risk by inversurestattrick.com.
Looking back at the game, points blank gloves save in the first season except for Orton Matthews, while Matthewney’s robbery in the third season is just two of his saves.
In addition to acquiring the fifth playoff shutout of his career, Bobrovsky is the first goalkeeper to post multiple shutouts in consecutive playoffs since Cam Talbot (2020-21 & 2019-20).
“It’s a series,” Bobrovsky said. “We’re excited about them because there’s a bigger game ahead. The series comes down to the best three, so it’s the next game.”
The fourth is filthy
It was another big game in the fourth line of Florida’s new look.
After scoring a Go-Ard goal in Game 3, the trio of Thomas Nose, Jonagajivich and AJ Grier were once again the forces to be considered against the Maple Leafs in Game 4.
Despite seeing limited minutes due to the extraordinary team abundance, the fourth line finished with a crazy share of 96.47% of the expected target in about three minutes of ice time.
Meanwhile, the Maple Leafs had no shots in goal and only two shot attempts.
The regular brand’s physicality and strength throughout the game were brought to Forecheck, with Nosek, Gadjovich and Greer also scoring goals with six hits and three shots.
“It’s probably the same as what you want from all your lines, but when they go on the ice, you’re looking for predictability,” Maris said. “They tie the style of the game together and they’re in a position where they’re running the route. I’ll say it again. They didn’t come here. They had an incredible month at the end of the season with all their injuries.”
