The Boston hockey players lost to Florida 3:4 in overtime on their own ice and did not use the first advancing match point. In the 67th minute, Matthew Tkachuk decided the win for the Panthers.

In the fifth game of the series, Boston could have advanced to the conference semifinals, but it never led during the duel.
The Bruins were able to equalize at 1:1, 2:2, and 3:3, but in extra time, after a mistake by goalkeeper Linus Ullmark in the break, Tkachuk decided the win for the Panthers.
Four Czechs appeared in the Bruins lineup, but none of them scored. David Pastrňák came out empty-handed for the second time in a row and remains on two points in the playoffs.
Thus, Pavel Zacha remains the most productive Czech hockey player in the elimination games, who collected four assists in five games. Radko Gudas contributed to the Panthers’ second win in a seven-hit streak.
The reigning champion of the NHL regular season will have a second chance to end the series on Saturday night on the ice of Florida.
Colorado went 2-3 in Game 5 of the series with Settle, losing by the same margin in the series and on the brink of elimination.
Not even two points from Nathan MacKinnon were enough for the defending champions to win. Yanni Gourde scored the difference goal at the beginning of the third period.
Even in the fifth game of the series, goalkeeper Pavel Francouz remained only on the substitutes’ bench.
