Emotions were running high in Game 5 between the Panthers and Bruins.
Cameras caught both coaches with some animated reactions, a sign that the tension is rising.
First was Panthers head coach Paul Maurice, who spent an entire commercial break yelling instructions to his players. The message must have worked as the very next shift, Sam Reinhart scored to tie the game 1-1.
"I thought they needed some profanity in their life, and I brought some," Maurice said after the game.
Shortly after Maurice's moment, and after the Bruins had retaken the lead, Boston defenceman Mason Lohrei was called for hooking. Bruins bench boss Jim Montgomery was not a fan of the call and threw his head back, suggesting some embellishment was afoot.
The Bruins held on to win the game 2-1 to force a Game 6 on Friday.
We don't know who is going to win the series, but we do know both coaches are going to need a nice cold drink after this one.
