After 2 Overtime Games, Panthers and Oilers Relish Days Off as Stanley Cup Final Shifts to Florida

The Florida Panthers defeated the Edmonton Oilers 5-4 in double overtime in Game 2 of the 2025 Stanley Cup Final on June 7 in Edmonton.
Following their narrow defeat in the opening overtime match, the Panthers bounced back with Brad Marchand scoring twice, including the decisive goal 8:04 into the second overtime, securing the victory.
The first period saw fast-paced scoring with five combined goals, marking the Stanley Cup Final's highest-scoring opening period since 2016, and both opening games went to overtime for the first time since 2014.
Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 42 of 46 shots, including 14 in overtime, while Seth Jones led Florida with 34:35 of ice time and said, "We came here for a split and got it."
After splitting the first two games, the teams will head to Sunrise, Florida for Game 3 on June 9, benefiting from an additional day to rest following two hard-fought overtime matches.
