Panthers Luostarinen, Lundell Expected for Stanley Cup Final Game 1 in Edmonton

Florida Panthers forwards Eetu Luostarinen and Anton Lundell are expected to be ready for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Edmonton Oilers, despite not practicing on Saturday. Both players were injured in the series-clinching Game 5 win against the Carolina Hurricanes, with Luostarinen leaving the game after crashing into the boards and Lundell playing a key role by scoring the go-ahead goal. Panthers coach Paul Maurice indicated that the only uncertainty is forward A.J. Greer, who remains day-to-day due to a lower-body injury and limited ice time in recent games. The Panthers, defending Stanley Cup champions, are preparing for their third consecutive Final appearance and feel energized despite a demanding regular season and playoff run. Goalies and injured players worked separately during practice sessions as the team focuses on recovery and readiness for the rematch with Edmonton. Game 1 is scheduled for Wednesday night in Edmonton.
