Sheldon Keefe Makes a Big Decision Concerning the Goalie in Game Three
There's no denying that one of the main reasons for the Panthers' success against the Leafs has been the incredible performances of their goaltender, Sergei Bobrovsky.
As opposed to the Leafs, Florida relied on their goalie to win, and their strategy paid off.
Ilya Samsonov hasn't been good enough to prove he could compete with a goalie like Bobrovsky.
Keefe made an important choice for the next game regarding this issue.
