This is the 23rd multiovertime game in Stanley Cup Final history and first since Game 5 of the 2020 Final when Perry scored in double-overtime for the Stars. Oilers defenseman John Klingberg had an assist on the goal to defeat the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Stanley Cup Final is the same as the 2024 Stanley Cup Final, but the early results are different. The defending champion Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers are tied 1-1 through two games.

Brad Marchand put the Florida Panthers on his back, and was able to lift them to a 5-4 win against the Edmonton Oilers in double overtime of Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final. Marchand scored two goals on the night and the series is now tied at one game apiece heading back to South Florida.
