Brad Marchand continues to make a huge impact on the success of the Florida Panthers in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
After scoring a power-play goal in the Panthers’ 4-3 overtime loss to the Edmonton Oilers during Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday night, the veteran left wing scored on a shorthanded breakaway in Game 2 on Saturday night.
It was Marchand’s ninth career goal in the Stanley Cup Final, moving him ahead of Ondrej Palat, Evgeni Malkin and Corey Perry for the most among active players. The all-time leader in Cup Final goals scored is Montreal Canadiens legend Maurice Richard, who scored 34 times in 58 games.
UPDATE (Saturday, June 7 at 12:45 p.m. ET): Marchand scored his 10th career Stanley Cup Final goal in double overtime to give the Panthers a 5-4 win.

The Bruins traded Marchand to the Panthers on March 7.
The 37-year-old forward has scored in three different Cup Final series (2011, 2019, 2025).
