The Edmonton Oilers punched their ticket to the 2025 Stanley Cup Final with a game 5 win over the Dallas Stars, and in doing so, they set up a re-match of last year’s Stanley Cup Final against the Florida Panthers. A rare occurrence indeed, as the same two teams vie for bragging rights, but this time the Oilers will be out for revenge. <\/p>
Last year, the Panthers jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the best-of-7 series, but Edmonton fought back to force a game 7, but ended up narrowly losing 2-1 in the final game as Florida brought home the first Stanley Cup<\/a> in franchise history. <\/p> This time around, though, the Oilers would have been terrific, especially in the playoffs, having won all but 4 games in their previous three rounds. So, will Edmonton get over the hump this year and claim its 6th Stanley Cup in franchise history, or will the Panthers go back-to-back for the first time since the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2020 and 2021?<\/p> The 2025 Stanley Cup Final will get underway on Wednesday, June 4. The series will continue with regular days off in between games, with game 2 scheduled for Friday, June 6, game 3 scheduled for Monday, June 9, and game 4 on Thursday, June 12. Games 4, 5, and 7, if required, will be played on Saturday, June 14, Tuesday, June 17, and Friday, June 20 respectively. <\/p>Key Dates for the 2025 Stanley Cup Final<\/h2>
