It won’t be long before the six-day layoff mercifully ends and the puck drops on Game 1 of the 2023-24 Stanley Cup Final. The Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers represent a doozie of a matchup. They’re both loaded with megawatt stars in the midst of tremendous postseason runs. They’re both starving for a championship, the Panthers never having won a Cup and the Oilers in a 34-year drought. And both clubs ooze personality, loaded with interesting characters..
The Oilers, in theory, are equipped with a shimmering piece of Kryptonite to wave at the otherwise invincible Florida Panthers. They happen to be the NHL’s least disciplined team, having finished first in penalty minutes this season, which was a symptom of also being the most physical team, leading the league in hits.
Yet none of those opponents is McDavid. That’s what makes this matchup so fun. Neither side has faced a challenge this big so far in the playoffs.The 10 greatest playoff runs by a goalie in NHL history
