Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky leads the team onto the ice before Game 1 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Finals against the Edmonton Oilers Saturday, June 8, 2024, in Sunrise, Fla. They led after one period of a Stanley Cup Final game for the first time since 1996. They led after two periods for the first time in a title-round game. They led a Cup final game by more than one goal for the first time — ever.
And they can only hope that a recent trend continues: Game 1 winners of the Stanley Cup Final have won the title in 14 of the last 18 seasons. “It feels good. Always feels good to win,” Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk said. “But we’ve got a lot of things to clean up and to get better at. They played well. We played well enough to win, just really grinded it out.”
