On the next-to-last day of the NHL season, Florida goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky wasn’t on the ice for practice. The Panthers are sure that’s a good thing.
Florida Panthers ’ Gustav Forsling and goalie Sergei Bobrovsky follow the puck as Edmonton Oilers’ Zach Hyman tries to get to it during the third period of Game 6 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Final, Friday, June 21, 2024, in Edmonton, Alberta. The Oilers won 5-1 to tie the series. Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky removes his helmet during a third period break of Game 5 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Finals against the Edmonton Oilers, Tuesday, June 18, 2024, in Sunrise, Fla.
“We were kind to him; we didn’t give him a shorthanded breakaway to start the game,” Maurice said. “I thought that was good of us. We cut down on those for him and gave him a chance. We’ll try that again tomorrow.”Veteran winger Corey Perry, who turned 39 midway through Edmonton’s playoff run, does not expect Game 7 to be his final one in the NHL.
The 28th pick in 2003, Perry is one of just a handful of players left from that deep, talented draft, along with goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury and defensemen Brent Burns and Ryan Suter, plus winger Zach Parise, who may be calling it a career. What happens after that isn’t clear. The Cup could be returned to the winning team for the continuation of celebrations or could go to Montreal for engraving first before the winning team gets it back.If history is any guide, the game-winning goal on Monday night will come with 5:53 left in the second period and be scored by either a center or a left wing.
Centers have the most Game 7 Cup final game-winners with six, followed by left wings with five, right wings with three and defensemen with three.Road teams have won the last three Game 7s in the Stanley Cup Final .
