Game 4 Maple Leafs at Panthers: How to Watch, Lines, Goalies, Odds

FORT LAUDERDALE — The Florida Panthers have a great opportunity to start their second round playoff series with the Toronto Maple Leafs off fresh.

Of course, they need a win tonight in Game 4 to do that.

The Panthers come into Game 4 trailing the Leafs 2-1 in the best-of-7 series.

A win on home ice suddenly makes this a best-of-3 series — with two games in Toronto.

The Panthers, who beat the Leafs 5-4 in overtime on Friday night, feel pretty good about the way things have gone lately.

“Each series presents itself with different challenges and different stuff throughout,” Matthew Tkachuk said when asked about being down 2-1 to the Rangers in last year’s Eastern Conference final.

“I think being down 2-0 and getting that much-needed Game 3 win, using our home crowd to our advantage was huge for us — like it was for Toronto in Games 1 and 2. So, hopefully we keep that momentum going.’’
