The stage is officially set for the 2025 Stanley Cup Final, and it’s a familiar one. The Edmonton Oilers punched their ticket with a 6-3 triumph over the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Final, teeing up a blockbuster rematch against the Florida Panthers, the very team that broke their hearts last year.
In 2024, Florida claimed its maiden Stanley Cup in dramatic fashion, edging out the Oilers in a seven-game classic. The Panthers came flying out of the gates, dominating the first three games with an 11-4 scoring blitz. But Edmonton didn't go quietly, they clawed back with three straight wins to force a Game 7, only to fall just short in the final showdown.
