Oilers vs. Panthers Stanley Cup Finals Game 5 Pick: Which Way Will The Series Swing in Edmonton? (Jun 14)

A pulsating Stanley Cup Finals continues on Saturday, as game five in the series is set for Rogers Place.

The Oilers will once again have home ice advantage, as they bid to retake the series lead against the Florida Panthers.

Not for the first time in the series, the Panthers spurned an excellent opportunity to seize control of the Stanley Cup on Thursday, but they suffered an overtime loss to hand the advantage back to the Oilers.

But, which way will the series swing when it moves back to Canada this weekend?

Panthers vs. Oilers Game 4 Recap

History was made in game four of the series between the Panthers and Oilers, as Edmonton produced the biggest road comeback in over 100 years. Things appeared to be heading for disaster for the Oilers following the opening frame, conceding three unanswered goals in a pulsating start for the home side.

However, the second period couldn’t have been more contrasting. Edmonton returned the favor, netting three goals of their own without reply. The Oilers looked on course for a stunning win inside regulation time, but the Panthers levelled the game in the final frame to force overtime.

But, it would be Edmonton that would write their names into the history books, with Leon Draisaitl netting the important winner in additional time. The victory has seen the tide of momentum swing back in favor of Edmonton, who will be aiming to go back into the series lead on Saturday.

Matthew Tkachuk had shone for the Panthers after scoring twice and adding one assist. But, the night will be ed for the Oilers comeback, marking the first time since 1919 that a team had come back from a three-goal deficit on the road to win a Stanley Cup Final game.

It is so hard to predict which way this series will go, but there would be no surprise to see a game seven required once again to separate the Oilers and Panthers.

The momentum achieved in Thursday’s win should give the Oilers confidence when they return to Rogers Place, but they will likely need to hold their nerve after three of the previous four Finals games have headed into overtime.
