Panthers build and then squander a 3-goal lead against Oilers in Game 4 of Stanley Cup Final
Briefly

In an intense Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final, the Florida Panthers held a 3-0 lead but ultimately fell to the Edmonton Oilers 5-4 in overtime. Following a strong first period, the Panthers watched as the Oilers rallied with four consecutive goals to take a lead. Despite a late goal to force overtime, Leon Draisaitl secured the win for Edmonton. The series is now tied 2-2, showcasing the evenly matched skills and resilience of both teams, with three of the four games going into overtime.
After two (periods) it's even, and it probably should have been. So, it doesn't matter how you how you start, you've got to treat it as zeros at the start of a period.
I think we focus on sometimes the mistakes that get made by good players at times, and you miss some of the heart and soul and the intensity of it.
It's so fast. Every board battle, everything can turn into something. Everything is dangerous all the time.
It has been that kind of series so far an evenly matched, back and forth heavyweight fight between two extremely experienced, resilient teams.
