Edmonton Looks to Capitalize on Playoff Momentum, Florida Aims to Protect Home Ice
The moment every hockey fan has been waiting for is here: the Stanley Cup Final is set to begin on Saturday night as the Edmonton Oilers take on the Florida Panthers in Game 1 at Amerant Bank Arena.
Edmonton Oilers: On a Roll
The Oilers have been on a tear throughout the playoffs, dispatching the Los Angeles Kings, Calgary Flames, and Dallas Stars in dominant fashion. Led by Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, Edmonton's high-powered offense has been unstoppable, averaging over four goals per game.
Florida Panthers: Home-Ice Advantage
The Panthers, meanwhile, have also been impressive in the playoffs, knocking out the Washington Capitals, New York Islanders, and Carolina Hurricanes. They will be looking to use their home-ice advantage to their advantage, as they have yet to lose a game at Amerant Bank Arena this postseason.
