Bobrovsky’s Brick Wall: Panthers’ Defense Shuts Down Opponents
The Florida Panthers are on fire, with several players stepping up in crucial roles. Matthew Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov are spearheading the offensive effort, each racking up 19 points in the postseason. However, Barkov is questionable for the upcoming game due to an injury sustained during the Game 2 victory.
Carter Verhaeghe has also been impressive, tallying 10 goals and 8 assists in the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs. Sam Reinhart and Sam Bennett have contributed significantly as well. Reinhart, who led Florida during the regular season with 57 goals—27 of which came on the power play—also notched 37 assists.
Defensively, the Panthers have been among the NHL’s best. Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky has been a cornerstone, allowing 2 or fewer goals in each of his last five starts. Throughout the regular season, the Panthers’ defense was formidable, conceding just 2.41 goals per game.

The Edmonton Oilers are determined to reignite their offense to keep their Stanley Cup hopes alive. Despite averaging 3.56 goals per game in the regular NHL player stats, they have managed just one goal in this series, scored by Mattias Ekholm in Game 2.
Nevertheless, Edmonton’s offensive prowess remains undeniable. Connor McDavid leads the postseason with 32 points, followed closely by Leon Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard, each with 28 points.
The Oilers also aim to provide more support for goaltender Stuart Skinner, who made 25 saves in Game 2 but only 15 in Game 1. Skinner has been in the net for every game since May 18 against the Canucks.
