The Florida Panthers picked up a big 5-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. With this, the Panthers now have a 3-2 lead in the series, and they can thank former Philadelphia Flyers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky for that.
Bobrovsky had a strong night for the Panthers in Game 5, saving 19 out of 21 Oilers shots. With this, the former Flyers goaltender now sports a 15-7 record, a 2.26 goals-against average, and a .912 save percentage in 22 playoff games this campaign.
Bobrovsky has also tied an incredible NHL playoff record with his latest victory. According to NHL Public Relations, Bobrovsky has tied an NHL record by recording 10 wins in one post-season. The other goalies who have achieved this feat are Jordan Binnington (St. Louis Blues, 2019), Braden Holtby (Washington Capitals, 2018), Jonathan Quick (Los Angeles Kings, 2012), Miikka Kiprusoff (Calgary Flames, 2004), and Martin Brodeur (New Jersey Devils, 1995 & 2000).

Bobrovsky has been on an excellent playoff run with the Panthers this year, and tying this impressive NHL record only demonstrates that further. It will now be interesting to see if the former Flyer can stay hot and lead the Panthers to their second straight Stanley Cup championship from here.
In two seasons with the Flyers from 2010-11 to 2011-12, Bobrovsky recorded a 42-23-10 record, a .909 save percentage, and a 2.73 goals-against average in 83 games.
Notable Update On Flyers’ Free Agency Plans RevealedThe Philadelphia Flyers are entering this off-season with a good amount of cap space, as they have roughly $19 million to work with. Due to this, some have questioned if the Flyers will try to make a major splash in free agency this summer. However, based on a recent update, this appears to be unlikely.
