The Florida Panthers return home with a chance to end the series. After dropping the first two games, they bounced back with three straight wins. Their Game 5 victory in Toronto was dominant. Florida scored six goals, showing depth and energy on both ends of the ice. Toronto looked out of rhythm for most of the night.
Jesper Boqvist and Aaron Ekblad each had a goal and assist in Game 5. Sam Reinhart added two assists as the Panthers jumped ahead early and never trailed. Florida's three-goal second period gave them full control. A late goal by the Leafs was too little, too late.
