The Florida Panthers have defeated the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final for the second straight year, becoming just the third team since 1998 to win back-to-back titles. Sam Reinhart scored four goals and Sergei Bobrovsky made 28 saves as the Panthers clinched the series with a 5-1 victory in Game 6.

The Florida Panthers are back-to-back Stanley Cup champions after a six-game victory against the Edmonton Oilers in a Stanley Cup Final considered an all-time classic. It harbored memories of a unique seven-game Final between the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs 80 years ago.

Less than 12 hours after losing to them in the 2025 Stanley Cup Final, oddsmakers at a majority of sportsbooks listed the Edmonton Oilers as favorites over the Florida Panthers in the 2026 NHL title series.
