The Panthers clawed their way back from a 3-1 series deficit, forcing a game seven showdown against the Bruins. However, game six was not without its share of controversy.

A Disputed Decision

Trailing 2-1 at the start of the second period, the Bruins came out strong, leveling the score with a jaw-dropping between-the-legs goal by David Pastrnak. Shortly after, they appeared to have taken a 3-2 lead courtesy of a Brandon Carlo strike, but not so fast.
Panthers' head coach Paul Maurice threw down the gauntlet, challenging the play for a "missed stoppage" due to an alleged hand pass by Jake DeBrusk. Check it out here:
And here's another angle:
Upon closer inspection, the puck does make contact with DeBrusk's glove (unintentionally) before Patrice Bergeron scoops it up. While it's technically a hand pass, the incident took place well before the goal and didn't influence the play's outcome.
