A year on from the Oilers’ Game 7 defeat, they have a chance to avenge that loss with a Stanley Cup Final rematch against these same Panthers. After cruising through the Western Conference bracket, confidence in Edmonton’s ability to finally break through – and end Canada’s Cup drought in the process – is high. 

As history has shown, you have to be in it to win it -- and this time around, Canada will have five cracks at Lord Stanley’s Cup. 

The 4 Nations Face-Off kicks off Wednesday in Montreal, where Canada, the USA, Sweden, and Finland will compete in an eight-day tournament, with the championship game on February 20, 2025.
