Evan Rodrigues' late brace helped the Florida Panthers turn things around to beat the Edmonton Oilers 4-1 in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday.
Ekholm initiated a counter attack just past the midway point of the first period, then put his shot through the legs of Panthers star goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky for the five-hole finish.Connor McDavid was credited for the assist, as the Oilers star also registered two shots on goal in the opening period. Aaron Ekblad and Brandon Montour also had two shots on goal each for Florida, but to no avail.
The momentum flipped toward Florida's way in the second period, with Matthew Tkachuk, in particular, getting more involved in front of Edmonton's net.But it wasn't Tkachuk who knotted it up at 1-1. Instead, defenseman Niko Mikkola, after avoiding a potentially catastrophic own goal, came up the ice the other way and tied it at the midway point.The third period was the Evan Rodrigues show. The 30-year-old centre/winger scored in Game 1, then continued his form late in Game 2.
Just over three minutes into the final period, Rodrigues struck a shot into the top left corner that gave Stuart Skinner little chance to react to.Then two minutes past the halfway point of the period, Florida showcased some superb build-up play from the back, which led to Anton Lundell sliding the puck over to Rodrigues to cap his brace.Ekblad then got on the score sheet with just 2:30 left.
