Florida forged ahead early with Verhaeghe scoring off a Barkov pass, and Bobrovsky's 32 saves secured a 3-0 victory. Rodrigues and Luostarinen added goals, with strong contributions from Bennett and Barkov.
Despite being outshot by the Oilers, Florida's ability to score early in periods kept Edmonton playing catch-up. The Panthers dominated in hits, blocked shots, takeaways, and faceoffs won.
Key Edmonton players like McDavid, Draisaitl, Hyman, and Bouchard had a combined 53% of the team's shots, yet were shut down by Bobrovsky, who achieved his second shutout of the playoffs.
