Brad Marchand emerged as the hero for the Florida Panthers in an exhilarating 5-4 win against the Edmonton Oilers, securing victory in double overtime during Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final. He netted two crucial goals, including the game-winner after a competitive matchup that saw both teams combine for five goals in the opening period—the highest scoring first period in the Final since 2016.

Marchand's performance was marked by determination, particularly after a missed opportunity in the first overtime where he hit the post. Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky rebounded from a shaky start, ultimately making 41 saves and limiting the Oilers to one goal in over three periods. With the series tied at one game each, the Panthers return home, ready to fight for their championship aspirations.
