Game Recaps

Florida Panthers v. Edmonton Oilers – Game 6 – 8p ET
- Back in Edmonton for the final time for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final, the Oilers look to send the series back to Florida for Game 7 while the Panthers would have other ideas, and in the first period Warren Foegele would strike to give the Oilers the 1-0 lead. In the second period Adam Henique would score to grow the Oilers lead to two, and while the Panthers thought they would get themselves back within one ten seconds late, the Oiler would be successful with the coach’s challenge to keep the Panthers off the board. Late in the second period Zach Hyman would score on a breakaway to give the Oilers the 3-0 lead going into the second intermission. Then in the third period Aleksander Barkov would strike for the Panthers to get them on the board, but Ryan McLeod and Darnell Nurse would score a pair of empty netters to give the Oilers the 5-1 victory over the Panthers to tie the series at three and force Game 7 for Monday night in Florida.
