Florida Panthers at Edmonton Oilers Preview & Picks

Florida and Edmonton are tipped to go over the total again in Game 5.

These two teams have been serving up high-scoring games all season long, and only once in this series has one of them failed to score at least three goals.

  • The Over has cashed in all 6 meetings this season
  • The Over has hit in 10 of the last 11 meetings between Florida & Edmonton
  • The 2025 Stanley Cup Finals is averaging 7.75 goals per game
  • Florida Panthers are 5-2 in the previous 7 meetings with Edmonton

Head To Head

  • Edmonton Oilers lead the all-time series 28-24-3
  • Edmonton Oilers won 5-4 in overtime when the two teams last met on June 9

Florida Panthers Form

Florida head back out on the road having surrendered their one-game lead in the series with a Game 4 defeat at home.

The Panthers began this series with a 4-3 overtime defeat in Edmonton, but they issued an immediate response with a big 5-4 overtime victory on the road.

They then took the series lead for the first time with a 6-1 blowout of the Oilers at home, only to give it up on Thursday as they were beaten 5-4 in overtime at home.

Florida came into the 2025 Stanley Cup Finals having won 12 of their 17 postseason games to eliminate Tampa Bay, Toronto and Carolina.

The Panthers made a fast start to the playoffs as they won 6-2 and 2-0 at Tampa Bay, before bouncing back from a 5-1 loss with series-sealing 4-2 and 6-3 wins over the Lightning.

They failed to repeat that fast start in the second round as they travelled to Toronto and lost 5-4 and 4-3 to the Maple Leafs.

Florida rebounded at home though, winning 5-4 in overtime and 2-0 in regulation, before going ahead in the series for the first time with a 6-1 victory on the road.

The Panthers failed to wrap up the series at home, losing 2-0 to the Maple Leafs, but they held their nerve in Game 7 as they went back out on the road to win 6-1 in Toronto.

They backed up that win as they raced out to a three-game lead in the Eastern Conference Finals, reeling off 5-2 and 5-0 wins in Carolina, before heading home to beat the Hurricanes 6-2.

Florida missed out on a series sweep as they were beaten 3-0 in Game 4, but they put that behind them when they returned to Carolina to wrap up the series with a 5-3 victory.

Edmonton Oilers Form

Edmonton return home having knotted up the series at two wins apiece with a big road win on Thursday night.

The Oilers enjoyed a winning start to the series as they recorded a 4-3 overtime victory at home, but they failed to back that up as they lost 5-4 in overtime at home and 6-1 in regulation on the road.

They rallied before returning home however, winning 5-4 in overtime in Florida to level the series at 2-2.

Edmonton went into this rematch of the 2024 Finals having gone 12-4 while eliminating Los Angeles, Vegas and Dallas.

The Oilers made a slow start as they lost back-to-back games in Los Angeles, 6-5 and 6-2, but they responded by winning the next four games to advance, 7-4, 4-3 (OT), 3-1 and 6-4.

They kept that run going as they made a better start to the second round, beating Vegas 4-2 in regulation and 5-4 in overtime on the road.

Edmonton then rebounded from a 4-3 home loss with a 3-0 victory, before heading back to Vegas to wrap up the series with a 1-0 overtime win.

The Oilers lost their first game of the Western Conference Finals series with Dallas, 6-3, but once again bounced back strongly from a postseason loss.

They levelled the series with a 3-0 victory in Texas, before returning home to take control with 6-1 and 4-1 successes at Rogers Place.

That gave Edmonton the chance to clinch on the road in Game 5, and they did just that as they beat the Stars 6-3 to seal their place in the Stanley Cup Finals.

Verdict

We are now four games deep into the Stanley Cup Finals and the goals continue to flow.

These two teams have repeatedly gone over the total in this series, continuing a trend that has gone on for a couple of seasons now, so we have to suggest backing the Over once again in Game 5.
