Edmonton Oilers Avoid Sweep, Force Game 5 in Stanley Cup Final

Historical Victory for Oilers

Dominant Performance Leads to Record-Setting Win

In a game that will go down in Oilers' history, Edmonton crushed the Florida Panthers 8-1 in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday night. The victory not only prevented a sweep but also set several new franchise records.

The Oilers' eight goals were the most they have ever scored in a Stanley Cup Final game. It was also the first time they had scored eight goals in any playoff game in franchise history. In addition, Edmonton set a new record for the largest margin of victory in a Stanley Cup Final game.

The Oilers' victory was a complete team effort. Connor McDavid led the way with a goal and two assists, while Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman each had two goals. Evan Bouchard, Cody Ceci, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins also scored for Edmonton.

The Oilers will now head to Florida for Game 5 on Friday night. The Panthers will need to win to keep their hopes of winning the Stanley Cup alive, while the Oilers will be looking to take a commanding 3-2 lead in the series.

The Oilers' victory was a much-needed boost for a team that was on the verge of being swept. They will now have a chance to win the Stanley Cup on home ice in Game 6 on Sunday night.
