On Wednesday night, June 19th, the fifth game of the Stanley Cup Final between the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers will take place. Currently, the Panthers lead the series 3-1.
In the last game, the Canadian team won with a score of 8-1. Tonight, they have the opportunity to win again and narrow the series gap to just one victory. However, Florida has only lost two games in a row once in these playoffs, which was in the series against the New York Rangers. Since then, no opponent has managed to defeat the team from Sunrise consecutively.
By the way, in the previous game, the leader and captain of the Canadian team, Connor McDavid, made three assists, surpassing Wayne Gretzky in assists in a single Stanley Cup playoffs.
The Oilers' resounding victory has brought the series score to 3-1. The next game will take place in Sunrise on the night of Wednesday, June 19.
It's worth noting that only one team in the history of the finals has managed to come back from a 0-3 series deficit. In 1942, the Toronto Maple Leafs accomplished this feat against Detroit to win the trophy.
