It was a heartbreaking Game 2 loss that saw Florida Panthers mega-pest Brad Marchand score the game-winner on a breakaway in double OT. That came after Corey Perry electrified Rogers Place with a game-tying goal in the last 20 seconds of regulation.

Leon Draisaitl scored on the power play in overtime, Stuart Skinner made 29 saves and the Edmonton Oilers erased a multigoal deficit to beat the defending champion Florida Panthers 4-3 in Game 1 of their Stanley Cup Final rematch.

McDavid won the Conn Smythe last season, even though the Oilers lost to the Florida Panthers in seven games in the Cup Final. He leads the playoffs with 28 points (six goals, 22 assists) in 17 games this season, but Draisaitl is right behind with 27 points (nine goals, 18 assists) in 17 games.
