The Oilers swore things would be different in their Stanley Cup Final rematch with the Panthers. They proved it in Game 1 with an impressive comeback and a 4-3 overtime win.

Last year, the Panthers took a 3-0 series lead that started with a shutout win. Edmonton was in uncharted territory, while Florida was playing in its second straight Final. Having gone through the experience of last season -- and the heartbreak of losing in Game 7 -- the Oilers were confident and poised before star center Leon Draisaitl\'s power-play goal with 31 seconds left in overtime earned them a 1-0 series lead.
