Panthers head coach Paul Maurice said his players are “wired as probably every fan is” as Florida regroups following a 5-4 overtime loss to the Edmonton Oilers in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.

Florida has shown resilience over the course of three straight Stanley Cup Final runs, but is blowing a three-goal lead and a second overtime loss the toughest test?

Sam Bennett, Brad Marchand and Aaron Ekblad are producing big in the postseason and are all set to be free agents on July 1.

The two teams look to be upping the ante after they met in the Cup Final last year, which ended with Florida winning the Stanley Cup for the first time in its history. There were some moments, there were some close games (the Panthers won 4-3 in Game 4 and 2-1 in Game 7), but it didn’t measure up to this Final.

One NHL Insider thinks the Panthers could retain one of their top players in Sam Bennett, who can become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.

They’re all going through it at the same time. It’s been marvelous to watch, and I think it does build the connections that you have with your team.’

Samoskevich, who was on Florida’s top power-play unit, even fed Bennett for the Panthers’ first goal of the playoffs in a 6-2 win against the host Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round. Pretty good way to make your postseason debut. “I can’t wait to get started,” Samoskevich said before the playoffs began.

The Florida Panthers suffered a crushing defeat, blowing a 3-0 lead in the first period to lose the game 5-4 in overtime.
