Edmonton is inching closer and closer to pulling off an ice-hockey miracle and bouncing back from a three-game losing streak in the Stanley Cup Final. The Oilers were not at their best going into the decisive match of the season, losing both games in Sunrise 3:0 and 4:1. The first home game was a little better for them, who battled for a result until the final seconds but came up short 3:4. After coming within a whisker of defeat in the series, Chris Nobloch's men turned things around, and Connor McDavid was amazing. The star forward broke many Cup records and led Edmonton to two consecutive wins - 8:1 and 5:3.

Florida already had the best season in the club's history. The Panthers have never won more than 13 games in the playoffs, a record set only last year. Now, with some severe Cup experience under their belts, they're on their way to their first Stanley Cup. Paul Maurice's wards got off to a flying start against Edmonton. They won both games at home - 3:0 and 4:1 - and then added a 4:3 win in Canada. Their trophy fate seemed sealed, but the Southerners suddenly began to lose. They lost the fourth game of the series convincingly - 8:1 - and then, although they played a better fifth game, they still failed to win it - 5:3. So far, they lead 3:2, but things are unclear now.

An astonishing statistic shows that Edmonton, under the leadership of Chris Knobloch, has had three consecutive three-game losing streaks this season. The first time, the Oilers responded with a five-game winning streak, the second with a 16-game winning streak, and the third with an eight-game winning streak. Now Florida has dropped three straight to the Oilers in the opening game of the final series, and the Canadiens have a well-earned answer. They've already won two in a row, 8:1 and 5:3, but they won't stop there. 

The confrontation between Edmonton and Florida began in the last series with close and pragmatic matches. The Panthers won the first two meetings - 3:0 and 4:1 - but their opponents opened up, and the battles' effectiveness increased. In the next three meetings, the opponents scored 24 pucks (8.00 average per game), a very high indicator for cup battles.
