    The Florida Panthers remain one win away from winning their first-ever Stanley Cup championship after failing to close out the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday.

    Catch up fast: The Oilers, down 3–0 in the Stanley Cup Final, avoided elimination by blowing out the Panthers 8–1 in Game 4.


    • Panthers star goalie Sergei Bobrovsky allowed five goals before he was removed from the game.

    Stunning stat: Bobrovsky had stopped 95% of Edmonton's shots in the first three games, per the Associated Press.

    • In Game 4, he allowed more goals in 25 minutes than in the previous three games.

    What they're saying: "We gave up eight goals, and zero of them were the goalie's fault," Panthers winger Matthew Tkachuk said, per ESPN.

    • "Obviously, we need to bounce back. We need to recover now and think about the next one," team captain Aleksander Barkov said.

    🀞 What's next: The Cats can win the Stanley Cup tomorrow in front of their home crowd at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise. Tickets start at $794 .
