Cats go for sweep of two-game roadie tonight
The Florida Panthers (15-13-4) will look to build on a well-played road win over New Jersey when they take on the Boston Bruins (24-4-2) tonight at TD Garden in chilly Massachusetts. Sam Reinhart scored twice and Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 30 to lead the Cats to a 4-2 victory over the Devils on Saturday. The Bruins, who lead the NHL with 50 points, are coming off a 4-2 win over Columbus and have to yet lose in regulation (16-0-2) on home ice this season. The teams have split their previous two meetings, with the Bruins winning 5-3 in Boston on October 15, and the Panthers posting a 5-2 decision in Sunrise on November 23.
