Oilers end winless streak with a 6-3 victory over the Panthers in Cup rematch

SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Jack Roslovic scored twice, Evan Bouchard had three assists and the Edmonton Oilers topped the Florida Panthers 6-3 on Saturday night in a matchup of the teams that played for the Stanley Cup in each of the last two seasons.

Connor McDavid and Matt Savoie had empty-netters for Edmonton to seal the win. Mattias Ekholm and Vasily Podkolzin also scored for the Oilers, who were back in Sunrise for the first time since seeing Florida celebrate its second consecutive Cup title last June.
