    As evidenced by Game 2 of their Eastern Conference second-round series, there's no love lost between the Florida Panthers and Boston Bruins .

    With Florida's dominant 6-1 win on Wednesday, the series is even at one game apiece. The Panthers scored six straight goals after the Bruins took a 1-0 lead, the most unanswered goals scored in a playoff game in franchise history. A whopping 136 penalty minutes were handed out in the third period. It was the first playoff game in which both teams accumulated over 70 penalty minutes since 2015.

    The Bruins had 87 penalty minutes, their most in a playoff game since 1988 -- 79 came in the third period. Meanwhile, 67 of the Panthers' 71 penalty minutes came in the third period.

    Both teams combined for 17 penalties in the final frame, highlighted by a multiplayer brawl that included a fight between the Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk and Bruins' David Pastrnak . While the numbers certainly jump off the score sheet, these photos tell the tale of the intense third period.
