SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — The sellout crowd in Florida was absolutely raucous during the playing of the national anthem. Singing it loudly, yelling at times, the energy in the building was palpable. Boston goalie Jeremy Swayman looked around at those fans during the song, a most confident look upon his face. It was almost like he knew he was going to keep them quiet for the majority of the remainder of the evening. And that’s exactly what he did. Swayman’s brilliant postseason continued by stopping 38 shots, Brandon Carlo scored a goal just a few hours after his wife gave birth to their son and the Bruins topped the Panthers 5-1 in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series Monday night. “I was just so impressed by the way all of us didn’t take no for an answer,” Swayman said. “The physicality, the mental and everything was so good to see and I’m really excited for what’s to come.” |
