A thrilling week of Stanley Cup Playoff action ended with two unexpected teams reaching the Finals. It's not that they weren't great teams it was just that they were less traditional markets who probably played on a national broadcast once combined. But good they were, especially Sergei Bobrovsky of the Florida Panthers. With his team down 2-1 after three games, both losses in OT, Bobrovsky shut it down allowing only four goals in the last three games (two on desperation goalie pulls with a two goal lead). Three straight wins for the Panthers. With all the focus on Igor Shesterkin of the Rangers, it was his Russian countryman Bobrovsky that shut it down. The Panthers are balanced and not the least of which is their goaltending and the Edmonton Oilers will have their hands full as we go to the Stanley Cup Finals. Sergie Bobrovsky is the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
This is Sergei Bobrovsky's second Sportsman of the Week.
This is the third Sportsman of the Week for the Florida Panthers.
