Sam Reinhart delivered a historic performance in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals, scoring four goals to lead the Florida Panthers to their second consecutive championship with a dominant 5-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers. This remarkable feat made Reinhart the fourth player in NHL history to score four goals in a Stanley Cup Final game and the first Panther to achieve a playoff hat trick. His prowess on the ice earned significant praise from the NHL community, including a shoutout from the league itself.

In addition to Reinhart's heroics, goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky showcased his skills with 28 saves, allowing just a single goal. Bobrovsky's performance throughout the finals was stellar, stopping 192 of 209 shots across the series. Meanwhile, Sam Bennett's contributions were also recognized, as he was honored with the Conn Smythe Trophy for being the postseason's most valuable player, leading all players with 15 goals and 22 points. The Panthers' victory reestablished them as a force in the league, marking the first instance of back-to-back champions since the Tampa Bay Lightning.
