The Stanley Cup Finals 2025 arrived with a bang in game one, when the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Florida Panthers, 4 to 3. The close contest was no surprise given what the hockey-watching world witnessed during last year’s wildly unpredictable finals, when the Panthers won three games in a row, then lost three games in a row to the Oilers, before hanging on for a Game 7 victory that earned them the cup. No doubt, Edmonton wants revenge, and they’ve already gotten a taste in Game 1. Can they take home the title this year? Or will the Panthers smash their dreams for two consecutive seasons? To find out, here’s everything you need to know about where to watch the 2025 Stanley Cup Finals.

The Oilers seem to be on a path of destruction this offseason, intent on avoiding last year’s near-epic comeback in the finals. In the first round of the playoffs, they lost the first two games against the Los Angeles Kings before rebounding to secure four-straight victories. Then they had a comeback win against the Vegas Golden Knights in the second round, before yet another come-from-behind effort against the Dallas Stars in the conference finals. If there’s one thing Edmonton seems to know how to do in playoff hockey, perhaps better than any other NHL team, it’s clawing their way back into contention every time they appear to be down for the count — a hockey habit they’ve turned into an art form.
But the Panthers certainly won’t slink away quietly into the night. Their roster has more depth this season, with nearly 20 different players earning at least one goal apiece. Their defense has also locked down opponents more efficiently this year, giving up fewer shots and going toe-to-toe with the league’s best squads. After winning their first-ever Stanley Cup last season, Florida has an opportunity to grow their success into a dynasty, placing their name amongst the best of the best in hockey history. But can they overcome a fearsome Edmonton that plays hockey like their lives are on the line? To find out, watch every second of what’s likely to be a highly competitive, intense Stanley Cup series.
