Paul Maurice's evolution as a coach over the past three decades in the NHL culminated with him finally becoming a Stanley Cup champion last year with the Florida Panthers.

Florida goes into Game 6 on its home ice with a chance to be the third team to go back to back since the NHL’s salary cap era began in 2005.

"To win the Stanley Cup is a miserable two months." Denis Potvin said. "The beard is a reminder of how much you have to put into it."

As such, the stoic captain was completely focused at his media availability on the eve of Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Florida Panthers at Amerant Bank Arena on Tuesday (8 p.m. ET; MAX, truTV, TNT, SN, TVAS, CBC), a must-win with Edmonton trailing 3-2 in the best-of-7 series.

There might be a “Blank Space” in the stands at Amerant Bank Arena for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final.

It's hard to place much blame on Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner for the three goals he allowed in Game 4. But his benching provided a spark.

Production and energy from their third and fourth lines have helped the Florida Panthers get on the verge of winning the Stanley Cup again.
