The Stanley Cup odds have seen a notable shift after Brad Marchand’s double-overtime winner gave the Florida Panthers a crucial road victory in Game 2. What started as an Oilers-favored series has now tilted back toward the defending champions.
Florida’s 4-3 victory Friday night not only evened the series at 1-1 but also wrestled away home-ice advantage from Edmonton. The Panthers accomplished their mission of getting a split in hostile territory and now return to Sunrise as -120 series favorites at DraftKings.
Here’s how the betting market has reacted to Florida’s gutsy performance.

Panthers Favored to Repeat…Again
The Panthers opened as slight favorites to win the Stanley Cup rematch once it was finalized. Then the money started pouring in on the Oilers, and Florida closed as notable +105 underdogs prior to Game 1 puck drop. Now, they’re back on top as Cup favorites.
Florida’s resilience shouldn’t surprise anyone who’s watched their playoff run. The Cats are an impressive 9-3 on the road this postseason. In their last five road victories, they’ve allowed just 1.8 goals per game. Their ability to silence hostile crowds has been their calling card.
The turning point in Game 2 came during a dominant second period where Florida posted a staggering 70.45% shot share and generated eight high-danger scoring chances. They completely suffocated Edmonton’s attack, limiting the Oilers to just nine shots and exposing their struggles during the long line change.
“We came here for a split and got it,” said defenseman Seth Jones. That simple statement encapsulates Florida’s businesslike approach to stealing home ice.
Are Oilers Worth a Bet at Underdog Price?
At +100, Edmonton offers even-money value for bettors believing they can rebound on the road. The Oilers showed fight in Game 2, with Corey Perry’s goal with 17.8 seconds left forcing overtime. Connor McDavid added three assists, showing he’s ready to carry the load again.
However, concerns are mounting for Edmonton. Stuart Skinner allowed four goals for the second straight game, while Sergei Bobrovsky settled down after a shaky first period to stop 42 of 46 shots. The goaltending edge clearly favors Florida.
More troubling for Edmonton is their penalty kill, which ranks third-worst in the playoffs at just 66%. Sam Bennett’s power-play goal – his league-leading 13th of the postseason – highlighted this glaring weakness. Against Florida’s deep attack and elite 86.8% penalty kill, special teams could decide the series.
Early Game 3 Odds
Monday’s Game 3 (5:10 p.m. ET) sees Florida installed as -135 home favorites with Edmonton at +114. The total sits at 6.5 goals with slight juice on the under (-118), suggesting a tighter-checking affair after two high-scoring games.
The puck line shows Edmonton +1.5 at -218, indicating oddsmakers expect another one-goal game. Both contests have been decided by a single tally, with overtime needed in each.

For series bettors, Florida’s road dominance tells the story. The Panthers are 9-3 away from home this postseason, averaging a Stanley Cup record 4.80 goals per road game. They’ve outscored opponents 48-21 on the road and dominated physically in Game 2 with a 60-39 hit advantage
The Oilers still have life, but they’ll need to solve Florida’s suffocating defensive structure and find an answer for their second-period struggles. Until then, the Panthers’ depth, road dominance, and championship experience make them the rightful favorites to repeat.
