Panthers Defeat Oilers 2-1 In Game 7, Capture First Stanley Cup

The Florida Panthers have won their first Stanley Cup in franchise history, defeating the Edmonton Oilers 2-1 in Game 7 on Monday night.

Florida goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky was named the Conn Smythe Trophy winner as the MVP of the playoffs. He finished the night with 32 saves on 33 shots.

The Panthers took the lead in the first period on a goal by Carter Verhaeghe. The Oilers tied it up in the second period on a goal by Connor McDavid, but the Panthers regained the lead in the third period on a goal by Aleksander Barkov.

The Oilers pulled their goalie with about two minutes remaining in the game, but they were unable to score the equalizer.

The Panthers' victory is their first Stanley Cup championship in their 28-year history. They are the first team to win the Stanley Cup since the Colorado Avalanche won it in 2022.
