Game 2 between the Boston Bruins and the Florida Panthers was intense, to say the least. Despite the Bruins falling 6-1, as the cats evened the series. They made sure to leave their mark, quite literally. The game got heated, with 14 players being ejected in the final period alone.

A standout moment came when the cameras caught Bruins forward David Pastrnak and the Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk exchanging some heated words on the ice. Tkachuk seemed to be trying to rattle Pastrnak, but instead of backing down, Pastrnak agreed to drop the gloves.

Back on the bench, Pastrnak wasted no time informing his head coach, who seemed fully supportive of his star player's decision. Though Pastrnak lost the fight, his willingness to stand up to Tkachuk sent a powerful message to both the Panthers and his Bruins aren't about to be pushed around, even in defeat.

«I'm not afraid of him. I can take a punch and I'd do anything for these guys here.» - David Pastrnak on his bout with Matthew Tkachuk.

Despite the loss, Pastrnak's bold move sets the stage for a fantastic Game 3 on Friday night in Boston. Both players received penalties, but Pastrnak's gutsy move spoke volumes about the team's resolve.
