Brad Marchand’s Late Heroics Propel Panthers to Crucial Game 5 Victory Over Oilers in Stanley Cup Final Showdown
Defensively, Florida smothered Edmonton for almost the entire 60 minutes. The only exception was when Connor McDavid got loose for his first in the series with 7:24 gone in the third. He put a nice move on Sergei Bobrovsky, but it was little solace for the Oilers or the fans in Edmonton.
Even Leon Draisaitl, who is never afraid to pull the trigger from anywhere on the ice, finished the game with just two shots on goal. Florida’s defense, particularly Gustav Forsling and Aaron Ekblad, made life exceedingly difficult on Draisaitl.
