The Florida Panthers and Toronto Maple Leafs each won both of their home games through four games of their second round NHL playoffs.
Kulikov’s elbow to the head of Mitch Marner in Game 4 drew no supplemental discipline from the NHL's Department of Player Safety, unlike Domi’s hit. Despite the lack of action from the NHL, Marner, who was not seriously injured on the play, addressed the play for the first time ahead of Game 5 during his media availability on Tuesday.

The Panthers have won at least one playoff series in each of the past 4 seasons, made it to the Stanley Cup Final in the past two and making a run for another Stanley Cup.
Sergei Bobrovsky gave up five goals in Game 1 against Toronto. Gave up four more in Game 2. Gave up four again in Game 3. Those numbers aren’t great.
Domi is being fined $5,000 by the NHL—the maximum allowable under the league's collective bargaining agreement—for his hit on Panthers center Aleksander Barkov in the closing seconds of Florida's 2–0 second-round Game 4 win. Charged with boarding, Domi was given a five-minute major penalty that nominally expired when the game ended.
Sunday's Eastern Conference game pits the Toronto Maple Leafs against the Florida Panthers. Toronto needs a win to go up 3-1, while Florida can level the series with a win on home ice. Dallas benefited from a three-goal third period to take a 2-1 series lead over Winnipeg.
