Florida Panthers can close the Stanley Cup final on Tuesday with a victory in match 6 Matthew Tkachuk said that the panthers have to approach it with the urgency of game 7 so that the Oilers do not force a winner game in Edmonton.

This time last year, the panthers jumped to the 3-0 lead against the Oilers before leaving three games in a row, which forced a game at the sunrise. Florida managed to make the fourth time the charm with a narrow 2-1 victory that won the first Stanley Cup in the history of the franchise.

Cats probably do not want to tempt the destination for the second year in a row, especially since this game 7 would be in Edmonton. As good as Florida has been home to this post -empowerment home, giving Connor McDavid the opportunity to put in a championship in front of the multitude of the hometown is a risky business.

Tkachuk knows that he and the Panthers treat the game 6 Tuesday night as if he were at home.

“We have to deal with this as a game 7,” said Tkachuk.

McDavid, the winner of the last year’s Conn Smythe Trophy, is the type of player who can burn you with a second chance. Tkachuk is aware of McDavid and Oilers will fight for their playoff life, but he says that the panthers will be ready for this push.

“It will be a hard test,” said Tkachuk. “He is desperate to win a cup. We are … for us to be in this position now, we have worked very hard. We are all ready for it.”

Florida had a lot of track last season. Could afford three direct losses before lifting the cup into the ice ice. This is not the case this year. Both teams should go out with a larger emergency level and this should mean the most intense game of a fantastic series.
