Florida won both games at home to tie the best-of-7 series 2-2. Game 5 will be at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on Wednesday (7 p.m. ET; CBC, TVAS, SN, ESPN).
“It’s a series, and the bigger games are ahead,” Bobrovsky said. “We’re excited that the series becomes a best-of-3. So, it’s a big game, the next one.”
Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Bennett scored for the Panthers, who are the No. 3 seed from the Atlantic Division.
“We’re mindful that it is one game,” Florida coach Paul Maurice said. “I don’t believe in momentum when the puck drops on the next game. We’re going to need to fight hard to get back to what was a pretty well-played game by our team.”
Joseph Woll made 35 saves for the Maple Leafs, who are the No. 1 seed from the Atlantic.
“He was great, played an excellent game,” Toronto coach Craig Berube said of Woll. “He was a big reason that it was only 1-0 (going into the third). … In the end, I really liked our physicality, our compete. Guys are playing hard. This is a tough series. They’re a very good team.”
Verhaeghe gave Florida a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal at 15:45 of the first period. He scored with a one-timer from below the right circle off a quick cross-ice pass from Matthew Tkachuk, who was along the left boards.
