Night one of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs is in the books, and it had a little bit of everything, including two comebacks that ended in overtime upsets. Check in with VSiN daily to get the latest updates on each series from a betting perspective.
Boston Bruins lead series 1-0
Florida held a sizeable edge in shots throughout the first two periods, but the Bruins created quality scoring chances throughout the game and controlled the play in the third period. Boston was able to beat Alex Lyon three times and they would’ve scored more if not for the fact that Lyon made several big saves. The Bruins seemed to be playing in low gear for long stretches, which must be discouraging for the Panthers given that they played a good game overall.
