The Panthers currently hold a 1-0 series lead, as they were able to win the series opener 3-0. This was a highly surprising scoreline because the Oilers are averaging more than three goals per game this postseason, making them one of the best offenses in the NHL. This shutout resulted from Florida’s goalkeeper Sergei Bobrovsky playing an incredible game, as he finished the night with 32 saves.

The Panthers had three different scorers in the series opener, including Carter Verhaeghe. He currently leads Florida with 10 goals this postseason, making him an offensive leader for the squad. Verhaeghe was helped offensively by Aleksander Barkov, who finished the game with two assists. This performance has given Barkov 13 assists in this year’s NHL playoff run, which is second-best on the team.

In order to steal game 2 in Florida tonight, the Oilers will need their leading scorers Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl to step up offensively. Edmonton’s 3-0 loss was the first time the team has been shutout this postseason. So, the Oilers have to figure out how to score against Bobrovsky tonight. Since they have a respectable amount of threats on offense, the Oilers will likely bounce back with some goals in game 2.

Edmonton’s goalkeeper Stuart Skinner will also have to perform better tonight, as he allowed two goals from only 17 shots. If he cannot improve his play during this series, then Edmonton will have difficulties winning a game.
