Bob is the one and only reason they are 11-2 since he's been in net. That Canes-Panthers series really could've went the other way if not for Bobrovsky.
It will be interesting to see how the time off affects the Panthers, I keep thinking back to the Senators run, they had almost 1.5 weeks off to a couple days for the Ducks. Too much time off can negatively affect a hot team.

I think the Ducks/Senators series was more about that Ducks team being a playoffs monster than anything else.
