Star goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky in top form for the Florida Panthers
EDMONTON — Sergei Bobrovsky’s dressing-room stall is a shrine. A gold crucifix hangs from a chain. Next to it is a royal blue Orthodox prayer tassel.
And the Florida goaltender’s play has been nothing short of divine in the Stanley Cup final. The Russian has clearly been the star of this series, stopping 82 of 86 shots over the course of three straight wins.
Bobrovsky is the wall that has stopped the Oilers’ “Cup or bust” dream in its tracks.
On Thursday night, he made a number of spectacular saves in the Panthers’ 4-3 win at Rogers Place.
