Matthew Tkachuk Sends Clear Message About Oilers-Panthers Stanley Cup Final originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Stanley Cup Final is back, and so are the title contenders. For the first time since 2009, the NHL will see a championship rematch, as the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers prepare to square off for a second straight year.

Connor McDavid and the Oilers have a chance to get revenge in a rematch with the Panthers, but the odds are against them.

The Oilers are one of four teams in NHL history to lose in the Stanley Cup Final then win a rematch with the same opponent the following season. They join the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2009 against the Red Wings, the 1956 Canadiens against Detroit, and the 1933 New York Rangers against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
