Connor McDavid scores his first goal of the Stanley Cup Final as the Edmonton Oilers defeat the Florida Panthers 8-1 in Game 4.
Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers are not ready for their offseason to begin, and the Stanley Cup Final is heading back to Florida after they made that statement loud and clear. McDavid scored his first goal of the series as part of a four-point performance, Stuart Skinner was spectacular in making 32 saves and the Oilers routed the Florida Panthers 8-1 in Game 4 on Saturday night, chasing Sergei Bobrovsky and avoiding a sweep. Game 5 is Tuesday in Sunrise.
Florida cutting its deficit to one on Vladimir Tarasenko’s goal midway through the first period did not cause Edmonton to fold, with Dylan Holloway answering with the first of his two goals before intermission and fans cheering the home team leaving the ice. The offense just kept coming. McDavid, the reigning and three-time NHL MVP beat Bobrovsky early in the second and minutes later set up Darnell Nurse for the defenseman’s first goal of the playoffs.
