Carter Verhaeghe scored the tiebreaking goal in the third period and the defending champion Florida Panthers beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-5 in the rematch of the Stanley Cup Final.

Sam Reinhart and Niko Mikkola also had a goal and an assist for the Panthers, who had been shut out in their past two games.

Jesper Boqvist scored on a short-handed breakaway to go ahead 1-0 at 2:42 of the first period, beating Skinner stickside after stealing the puck from Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard, who fell down as the Oilers won an offensive zone face-off.
