Edmonton Oilers defenseman Mattias Ekholm is not pleased with how the Florida Panthers play in front of Stuart Skinner.

The Oilers are leaning on their experience from losing in the Cup Final last year to try and turn the page from an emotional overtime loss in Game 2.

Acquired by Edmonton from San Jose for a conditional first-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft and forward prospect Carl Berglund on March 6, 2025, the 29-year-old has eight points (one goal, seven assists) in 18 playoff games and is averaging 20:19 of ice time per game.
