After a pair of overtime games to start this Stanley Cup Final, the Florida Panthers made sure we didn’t get three in a row. The Panthers blew out the Edmonton Oilers in Game 3 to the tune of a lopsided 6-1 score.
Florida jumped in front just 56 seconds into the game when Anton Lundell and Brad Marchand linked up to win a net front battle and beat Stuart Skinner. It was Marchand’s fourth goal of the series and his third straight goal for the Panthers.
Things didn’t get any prettier for the Oilers from there. Florida dominated every aspect of the game and got under Edmonton’s skin all night. By the end of the second period, the Panthers held a 4-1 lead thanks to a pair of brilliant goals from Sam Reinhart and Sam Bennett.
Defensively, the Panthers were absolutely dominant. They didn’t allow Leon Draisaitl to record a shot on goal, and Connor McDavid was completely neutralized. When that happens, it’s nearly impossible for Edmonton to win.
Perhaps the worst part of the game for the Oilers were the self-inflicted wounds. They took three offensive zone penalties and a bench minor in the first period alone. By the end of the game, Edmonton had completely lost its cool, and it piled up 85 penalty minutes as a team. It was hard to believe it was the same Oilers team that went toe-to-toe with the Panthers in Games 1 and 2.
We’ll see what kind of response the Oilers have in Game 4 on Thursday night because the Panthers will be looking to replicate this game exactly.

Patrick Mahomes begins rehab from torn ACL, with Chiefs hoping he’ll be ready for next season
Patrick Mahomes is done for the season and so are the Kansas City Chiefs. Now the question is how much the quarterback's torn ACL will affect the 2026 season.Rick Burkholder, the Chiefs' vice president of sports medicine and performance, addressed that question with reporters on Wednesday, two days after Mahomes went under the knife for both a torn ACL and LCL. He projected optimism that Mahomes would enjoy a successful rehab, with a very loose recovery timeline of nine months:"Every player is different. Every sport's different. Every position is different. With him, traditionally, he's going after it so hard and he's so in tune with what he does, he does it a little quicker. Ballpark on this is nine months. Could be a month or two less, a month or two more. You never know what goes on and everyone's […]

The Big Picture: Rams Ready for Seahawks, the Team Jared Verse ‘Dislikes the Most’
The rematch the Seattle Seahawks have been waiting for has arrived, but the Los Angeles Rams are just as ready as they are for Thursday's heavyweight NFC West tilt. Five weeks ago, the Rams edged out the Seahawks in a nail-biter at SoFi Stadium as Seattle kicker Jason Myers missed a 61-yard field goal at the buzzer. Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold had his worst performance since joining Seattle in that game, throwing four interceptions. But with the Seahawks still having an opportunity at the end, defensive players like Leonard Williams and Uchenna Nwosu said afterward they couldn’t wait to face the Rams at their place for the rematch.Well, the Rams can't wait, either. While the Rams-San Francisco 49ers rivalry might be the most competitive in the NFC West considering their recent success, second-year edge rusher Jared Verse pointed at the Seahawks […]
