On Tuesday, the Florida Panthers became back-to-back Stanley Cup champions, defeating the Edmonton Oilers in Game 6 at home, 5-1.

In their first playoff game as defending champions, the Panthers scored early and often. Matthew Tkachuk had three points in his first game since missing more than two months because of an injury and Nate Schmidt scored twice. Florida got three power-play goals and Sergei Bobrovsky made 20 saves for a 1-0 series lead.
