Goalie Sergei Bobrovsky made 33 saves and the Florida Panthers notched a 3-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday night.
Bobrovsky is the biggest reason Florida has a lead of any kind in the final for the first time in franchise history.

Carter Verhaeghe and Evan Rodrigues supplied the offense by scoring on two of the Panthers’ first five shots and Eetu Luostarinen added an empty-netter.
Reigning MVP Connor McDavid and the Oilers dominated at times but could not crack Bobrovsky.
Game 2 is tomorrow (Tuesday) night.
