Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final was a nightmare for the Edmonton Oilers. Coming off back-to-back overtime thrillers, the series shifted to Florida with the Oilers hoping to reclaim the series lead — but instead, they were steamrolled by the defending champions. The Panthers pounced early and never let up, cruising to a 6-1 victory and taking a 2-1 lead in the series. The night was full of penalties, blown coverages, and frustration, capped off by a chaotic third period that looked more like a wrestling match than playoff hockey.Stuart Skinner was pulled after allowing five goals, sparking questions about whether Calvin Pickard might get the start in Game 4. The Oilers' penalty kill struggled yet again, and their composure slipped as tensions flared late. Meanwhile, Florida took full advantage of their chances, showing off the discipline, depth, and structure that made them Cup champs a year ago.Today on Oilersnation Everyday, we'll dive deep into everything that went wrong for Edmonton — from the special teams breakdowns to the lack of pushback at key moments. We'll go through the full scoring summary, deliver our One Big Take, and ask the Giant Question: what needs to change heading into Game 4? Can the Oilers settle down and find their game, or are the Panthers firmly in control?We're also thrilled to be joined by NHL Network analyst and former Oiler Jason Demers, who will help us break down the turning points from Game 3, the goalie debate heading into Friday, and what it will take for Edmonton to bounce back and even the series.

Only a couple days remain before the NHL breaks for the Four Nations Faceoff and Roy, David and Ethan are here to get you ready. Before they do that, they run through their slapshots, winners and fails of the week including Ryan Hartman's nasty hit on Tim Stützle that got him a 10-game suspension, the Buffalo Sabres not standing up for Tage Thompson, and Sam Bennett throwing hands with Jake Neighbors. Then, Billy Lindsay of the Florida Panthers Radio Network and NHL Network joins the show to discuss the Four Nations, how jacked up guys are to play in the tournament, the crazy Wild Card race in the Eastern Conference, and his legendary call of the Panthers winning the Stanley Cup. In the final segment, the boys run through the week that was for the Florida Panthers and Roy shares his thoughts on the Panthers visit to The White House. Learn more about your ad choices.
