The Florida Panthers are one win away from their second straight Stanley Cup after beating the Edmonton Oilers, 5-2, in Game 5. Brad Marchand and the Panthers took control of the game early, and they never gave the Oilers any life.
At the age of 37, Marchand is playing some of the best hockey of his career. He scored two goals in Game 5, and both of them were of the highlight reel variety. With his two goals, Marchand now has 10 in the postseason and six in the Stanley Cup Final. He also joins Mario Lemieux as the only players in the modern era to score five or more goals in two Stanley Cup Final series.
The other story of the night was the Panthers’ defense thwarting everything the Oilers tried to do offensively. Edmonton rarely got the puck to a dangerous area, and even when it did, Sergei Bobrovsky made a couple of big saves. Considering the atmosphere in Rogers Place, Game 5 might have been the Panthers’ best defensive showing yet.
The Oilers got a couple of goals in the third period, but they were never really a threat to come back. Leon Draisaitl had two shots on goal, and neither one of them stood out as quality chances. Connor McDavid buried one of his two shots, but Florida made both of those superstars non-factors in a critical Game 5.
Edmonton has already come up with one big answer — the Game 4 comeback — but it needs another one now. The Oilers have to go into enemy territory with their season on the line on Tuesday, and the Panthers will want to prevent a Game 7.
