The Florida Panthers repeated as Stanley Cup champions by beating the Edmonton Oilers 5-1 in Game 6 of the final on Tuesday night, becoming the NHL’s first back-to-back winners since Tampa Bay in 2020 and ’21 and the third team to do it this century.

In any other era, in almost any other year, this Edmonton Oilers team is good enough to win a Stanley Cup. Good enough, even, to be a two-time champion solidifying its place in NHL history.

Sam Reinhart scored four times as the Florida Panthers smothered the Edmonton Oilers 5-1 on Tuesday night to win the Stanley Cup for the second year in a row.
