Following their 5-2 win Saturday in Game 5 of their Stanley Cup Final rematch against the Oilers, the Panthers have a 3-2 series lead over Edmonton. Florida can clinch its second consecutive title as early as Tuesday, when it plays Game 6 on home ice at Amerant Bank Arena (8 p.m., TNT, truTV, Max).
Samoskevich, who was on Florida’s top power-play unit, even fed Bennett for the Panthers’ first goal of the playoffs in a 6-2 win against the host Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round. Pretty good way to make your postseason debut. “I can’t wait to get started,” Samoskevich said before the playoffs began.
