Linus Ullmark shocked Bruins fans when he attempted to drop the gloves with Matthew Tkachuk near the end of game four. Now, the goalie has shared his side of the scuffle.
''Just Another Day at the Office''
After Tuesday's practice at Warrior Ice Arena, Ullmark met with media in the Bruins locker room to discuss the incident with Florida's pest. He noted that it was just more of a reactionary thing, more than anything.
''Things happen so fast and so quickly. You have everybody trying to stick up for each other. I tried to do the same there at the end. It's not something that I'm actively seeking out.''
Not only that, but the Swede shared that his family reached out soon after, with his mother being the first. Of course, she had to ensure her son was okay, especially since she hadn't seen that side of him before.
The Bruins will host the Panthers for game five on Wednesday night at Td Garden in Boston, as they'll try to close out the series on home ice. Ullmark is 3-1 with a 2.55 GAA and a .926 SV% in the playoffs so far.
