Florida Panthers official Douglas Cifu blasted a Maple Leafs fan, taking shots at Canada, making incendiary comments on the Israel-Palestine war.

And when the Panthers routed the Maple Leafs 6-1 in Game 5 on Wednesday at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena — a game in which Florida was 66 seconds from a second consecutive shutout and a game that had the home crowd booing its team by the second intermission? Status quo.

Scripps Sports has four teams within its NHL broadcast inventory as the Tampa Bay Lightning join the Florida Panthers, Utah Mammoth and Vegas Golden Knights.

The NHL has suspended Florida Panthers vice chairman and alternate governor Doug Cifu from any involvement with the team or the league.

The Florida Panthers made it a 3-2 series with a thrashing of the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Edmonton Oilers closed out the series against the Las Vegas Golden Knights with an overtime win. After Wednesday's results, here's a look at the upcoming schedule for the NHL Playoffs.

Sixteen teams in total make the NBA playoffs, eight teams from both the Eastern and Western Conferences. The top six seeds in each conference advance based on the regular season record. The final two seeds in each conference are wild-card spots based on the best remaining records in each conference.

Eight teams remain in the Calder Cup Playoffs, which decide the championship of the American Hockey League. Hershey (Washington Capitals), one of those eight, has won back-to-back Calder Cup crowns and is bidding to become the first to win three straight Calder Cup titles since Springfield in 1960-62.

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.
