Veteran forward Brad Marchand said the Florida Panthers sensed the toll pressure took on the Toronto Maple Leafs while his team rode a relaxed mentality into Game 7 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series.

In nearly an identical performance from Game 5, the Panthers won’t get any rest as the Eastern Conference Final starts in Raleigh Tuesday.

Just 48 hours after beating Toronto in Game 7, Florida became the first team in these playoffs to win in Carolina.

The Florida Panthers visit the Toronto Maple Leafs for Game 7 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series Sunday.

The Toronto Maple Leafs bounced back from a blowout loss to shut out the Florida Panthers and force a Game 7. Highlights from Game 6:
