Edmonton is back home among its rowdy fans for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night. Florida leads the series 2-0.
Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers need a win on Thursday night to try to get back into the series.It’s pretty much do-or-die for the Edmonton Oilers as they return home to Rogers Place for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night.Florida, the Eastern Conference champs, has played pretty much a flawless series so far, winning Game 1 by a 3-0 score and then following that up with a 4-1 win in Game 2.
He has yielded two goals or fewer for the 12th time in his last 13 games for a Panthers team that has won 14 of 19 postseason games and reversed a trend where it had never held a series lead in the Stanley Cup Final. Edmonton goaltender Stuart Skinner has played well, stopping 40 of the 45 shots he has faced, and the goals he has allowed have largely come off turnovers and mistakes made by defenders in front of him.
Before those two, the most recent instance of a team rallying back from a 2-0 deficit to win the Stanley Cup was the Canadiens in 1971.
