The Oilers forced the Panthers to a Game 6 in Edmonton after a 5-3 win in south Florida last night. The only time in NHL history that a team down 0-3 in the Stanley Cup Final came back to win the series was in 1942, when the Maple Leafs beat the Red Wings. The last time that a team came back from 0-3 at any point of the NHL playoffs was in 2014, when then Kings took out the Sharks in the first round.

A major reason why Edmonton still has a chance is the play of Connor McDavid, who has 42 points during the playoffs — five shy of Wayne Gretzky’s record for most all time set back in 1985. If the McDavid and the Oilers force a Game 7, he could have a shot at breaking that mark.
