The Boston Bruins were historically good during the 2022-23 NHL regular season, setting league records for wins (65) and points (135) en route to winning the Presidents' Trophy. So wouldn't it be fitting for them to become the first team to advance past the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs?
On Wednesday night, the Bruins will have that opportunity, as they'll be looking to finish off a series win over the Florida Panthers in a Game 5 matchup. Boston leads the series 3-1. No teams have yet to advance because there were no sweeps in the opening round.
