Rangers fans can't make up their minds as to which team to support in the upcoming Stanley Cup Final Round – the defending champions Panthers or the challenging Oilers. My buddy Bernie Rohde tells me he's going for Edmonton "because of Connor McDavid." He's the top; like sarsaparilla – or root beer.

The Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers will start the best-of-7 Final with Game 1 at Rogers Place on Wednesday (8 p.m. ET; CBC, TVAS, SN, TNT, truTV, MAX). It's a rematch of last season's Final, which the Florida Panthers won in seven games.

Connor McDavid actually had a good reason for touching the OIlers' trophy for winning the Western Conference playoffs.

Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers will get the chance to earn redemption after last year's Stanley Cup Final loss to the Florida Panthers.

DALLAS – The Edmonton Oilers were getting caved in, with their three-goal lead down to one and on the verge of evaporating completely as the Dallas Stars made a frenetic push in the second period. Like a sweater with a loose thread, the Oilers seemed as though they could unravel at any moment.
