Leading 2-1 with under eight minutes remaining in the third period, Evan Rodrigues scored his second goal of the game during a Florida Panthers power play, giving Florida a crucial two-goal lead. In the play, Rodrigues passed the puck to Anton Lundell along the boards in the neutral zone. With Rodrigues driving towards the net, Lundell took the puck wide, got past the defenseman, and sent it out front, where Rodrigues redirected it into the net. Rodrigues' performance in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final earned him First Star of the Game honors.
