The 2023 Stanley Cup Final is set, as the Panthers and the Golden Knights are the last two teams standing in the NHL playoffs.
Florida is in the finals for the first time since 1996 and only the second time in franchise history. The Panthers pulled off a major upset in the first round, knocking out the Bruins in seven games, before dismantling the Leafs in five games and the Hurricanes in four.
Vegas is also making its second Stanley Cup Final appearance in club history and first since 2018 — its inaugural season. The Golden Knights breezed by the Jets in Round 1, then defeated the Oilers and Stars in six games each.

This year’s final features two of the best American-born players in the league Matthew Tkachuk and Jack Eichel. Tkachuk is leading the Panthers in points this playoffs with 21 and came through in the conference finals with two overtime goals and the series-clinching goal in the dying seconds of Game 4.
Eichel cooled off during the Western Conference Final, but he is still leading the Golden Knights in points with 18.
