Just as the Oilers have a chance to become the first team since the 1942 Maple Leafs to overturn a 0-3 deficit to win the Stanley Cup, the Panthers stand on the verge of infamy. In the 82 years since they made unwanted history as the first team to squander a 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Finals, the Red Wings' notoriety has only grown. Are they finally going to get someone to share the burden with?
The Oilers, who are aiming to become the first Canadian franchise to lift the Stanley Cup since 1993, have outscored their opponents by 18-5 over the last three games, drawing first blood on all three occasions.
It's incredible to think that the Panthers were flying their friends and family members out to Edmonton for victory celebrations more than a week ago, and in his desperation to stop the rot, Paul Maurice has turned to superstition, switching up Sergei Bobrovsky's practice schedule in one last bid to turn the tide.
Here's everything you need to know to watch Stanley Cup Finals 2024 online, plus the full schedule, TV channels and all the live stream information, with or without cable.
