Edmonton is benching Stuart Skinner in favor of Calvin Pickard for Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final as the series shifts back to Canada. None of this is all too surprising. Skinner has been good, not great this postseason (2.99 goals against average, 89.1 save percentage) and was downright awful in Game 4.

The Edmonton Oilers got off the mat. Down, 2-1, in the best-of-seven series and trailing by three goals in Friday night’s Game 4, the Oilers staged a stunning comeback to get the Final back on level terms ahead of Sunday’s Game 5 in Alberta.

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.

One of the greatest Stanley Cup Final games in recent memory ended with the Edmonton Oilers defeating the Florida Panthers 5-4 in overtime on Thursday.
