COMMENTARY
SUNRISE, Fla. — The Florida Panthers did everything they could to make Jeremy Swayman uncomfortable between the pipes on Monday.
Beyond a punishing forecheck, the Panthers have a knack for making life miserable for opposing goalies by creating traffic near the crease. That culminated in a blue-paint pig pile in the third period — with both red and white jerseys sprawled out in front of a diving Swayman.
Amid that mass of humanity, Swayman emerged with the puck in his glove, and a smile on his face.
Swayman’s numbers this postseason speak for themselves.
