Brian Boucher, who kept his club in the extra session with 14 saves -- many of them spectacular -- stopped 41-of-46 shots in all for Philadelphia, which will try to even the series at TD Garden on Monday.

Boston and Philly’s upset wins set up the first playoff meeting between these clubs since 1978. All four of the postseason encounters between these clubs came between 1974-78.

Each team has won twice in the all-time playoff series. The Flyers won the most notable matchup, beating Boston in six games to win the Stanley Cup in 1974. The Bruins have won the last two encounters, including a five-game series win over Philly the last time clubs met in the 1978 Stanley Cup semifinals.
