Oilers are playing the hits early in the Stanley Cup Final, matching the Panthers' physicality

The Edmonton Oilers are bringing the physicality to their Stanley Cup Final rematch with the Florida Panthers

JUNE 5, 2025 • Associated Press

Garners helper Wednesday Podkolzin notched an assist and five hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Impact Podkolzin set up a Viktor Arvidsson tally in the second period. The 23-year-old Podkolzin snapped his eight-game point drought in the process. While the scoring slump hasn't cost him a spot in the lineup, he has found himself in a bottom-six role lately. The winger has seven points, 11 shots on net, 79 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 17 playoff outings.

Pair of points in Game 2 win Podkolzin scored a goal, dished an assist, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.

Impact Podkolzin factored on the Oilers' first two goals, giving them a lead at 15:18 of the second period after setting up a Jake Walman tally a few minutes earlier. The goal was Podkolzin's first of the playoffs, but he has added five assists over eight games in a bottom-six role. The winger also has 36 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-5 rating, bringing plenty of physicality to the lineup.

Garners helper Thursday Podkolzin notched an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Kings in Game 6.

Impact Podkolzin picked up an assist in four of six contests during the first round. The physical winger added just three shots on net, 29 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-3 rating against the Kings. Podkolzin will need to maintain that toughness against the Golden Knights' gritty and skilled bottom six as the Oilers advance to the second round of the playoffs.

Adds assist in win Podkolzin notched an assist and six hits in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings in Game 5.

Impact Podkolzin has picked up a helper in three of the last four contests. Despite his success on offense, he has seen less than 10 minutes of ice time in three of those games, including a playoff-low 7:20 in Tuesday's win. The winger has added two shots on net, 27 hits and a plus-2 rating over five postseason appearances.

Helpers in consecutive contests Podkolzin notched an assist and seven hits in Friday's 7-4 win over the Kings in Game 3.

Impact Podkolzin has a helper in each of the last two contests. The 23-year-old forward has added 14 hits, two shots on net and 10 PIM over three playoff contests. He hasn't consistently been in the top six during the postseason, and that will limit his ability to get on the scoresheet regularly. Podkolzin still offers some fantasy appeal for his toughness, but don't expect steady scoring.

Generates assist in loss Podkolzin notched an assist, three hits and 10 PIM in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Kings in Game 2.

Impact Podkolzin helped out on a Viktor Arvidsson tally in the third period. The 23-year-old Podkolzin then earned a misconduct penalty later in the frame, which ended his game early. He spent much of the season in a middle-six role, but the return of Evander Kane gives the Oilers a more experienced physical winger to deploy. Podkolzin had 24 points over 82 regular-season contests, but he'll be hard-pressed to match that scoring pace if he remains on the fourth line.

Buries goal Wednesday Podkolzin scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Blues.

Impact Podkolzin's tally gave the Oilers a 2-1 lead at 12:39 of the second period. This ended a nine-game goal drought for Podkolzin, who had one assist, 13 shots, 29 hits and a minus-6 rating in that span. The 23-year-old winger is up to eight goals, 24 points, 111 shots on net, 200 hits, 50 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 78 appearances as a middle-six fixture in Edmonton's lineup.

Nabs assist Tuesday Podkolzin recorded an assist and four hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Podkolzin's offense remains rather inconsistent. He had just one goal across 14 games in March, so even a top-six role at even strength isn't helping him get on the scoresheet regularly. The physical winger is up to 23 points, 105 shots on net, 189 hits, 45 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating across 74 contests this season. Fantasy managers who needs hits with the potential for points can consider Podkolzin as long as he plays alongside Leon Draisaitl at even strength.

Tickles twine in Tuesday's win Podkolzin scored a goal and added four hits in Tuesday's 7-1 win over Utah.

Impact Podkolzin picked up his first point over nine games in March and his first goal since Jan. 15 versus the Wild when he scored at 9:53 of the second period. During the 23-game goal drought, the winger had just four assists and a minus-8 rating while logging middle-six minutes a majority of the time. He's done alright in a limited role this season, earning seven goals, 22 points, 95 shots on net, 167 hits, 43 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating across 68 appearances. He needs four more points to match his career-best total from his rookie year in 2021-22 with the Canucks.
