The Florida Panthers completed their Stanley Cup repeat in style with a 5-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 6 as four goals from Sam Reinhart helped them clinch back-to-back championships in front of an ecstatic home crowd in Sunrise.

In a rematch of last year’s Finals, the Panthers became the first team to repeat as champions since the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2020-2021.

“The Stanley Cup is the most iconic trophy in sports and the most difficult to win,” said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman at the trophy presentation ceremony. “And while it may be difficult to win once, to do it twice in a row is almost impossible.”

Reinhart put the Panthers ahead five minutes into the game beating goaltender Stuart Skinner. Matthew Tkachuk doubled the lead in the final seconds of the first period. Reinhart scored his second of the night off his skate with 2:29 left in the second.

Reinhart killed off any hope of an Oilers comeback by scoring two empty-netters late in the third period, while Vasily Podkolzin grabbed a late consolation for Edmonton.

Sam Bennett, who scored 15 goals in the postseason, won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoffs MVP.
