Florida Panthers Shut Out Oilers in Game 1 of Stanley Cup Final

Bobrovsky Stands Tall

Sergei Bobrovsky was the star of the night for the Florida Panthers, making 28 saves to earn his fourth shutout of the playoffs. He was especially sharp in the third period, when the Oilers had a number of chances to get on the board.

Panthers' Offense Clicks

The Panthers' offense was also clicking on all cylinders, as they outshot the Oilers 32-28 and scored three goals. Ryan Lomberg opened the scoring in the first period, and Aleksander Barkov and Sam Reinhart added goals in the second and third periods, respectively.

Conclusion

The Panthers now have a 1-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final, and they will look to take a commanding 2-0 lead when they host the Oilers in Game 2 on Monday night. The Oilers, meanwhile, will need to find a way to generate more offense and get pucks past Bobrovsky if they want to get back into the series.
