The 2025 Stanley Cup Final is now tied 1-1 after a dramatic Game in Edmonton, where Brad Marchand scored in double overtime to lift the Florida Panthers over the Edmonton Oilers, 5-4. Marchand’s second goal of the night came:05 into the second OT, capping a wild back-and-forth contest that featured late heroics and relentless offense from both teams.
The Oilers, who took Game in overtime thanks to Leon Draisaitl’s power-play goal, looked poised to seize a commanding series lead after rallying from deficits twice in Game. Corey Perry forced overtime with a game-tying goal for Edmonton with just.8 seconds left in regulation, the latest tying goal in Cup Final history.
Florida’s Sam Bennett opened the scoring with his playoff-leading 13th goal, while Marchand added a short-handed tally. Edmonton’s stars responded: Evan Bouchard notched a goal and two assists, Connor McDavid recorded three assists, and Draisaitl added a goal and assist. Goalie Sergei Bobrovsky was crucial for the Panthers, stopping 42 of 46 shots, including in overtime.
Game shifts to Florida’s Amerant Bank Arena on Monday as both teams look to break the deadlock in what’s shaping up to be one of the most thrilling Stanley Cup Finals in recent memory.
