Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie, 38, is retiring after a 16-year NHL career in which he won a Stanley Cup and became a U.S. Olympic hero. He had missed this past season with a back injury. He made the tear-filled announcement at the outdoor Washington Harbour venue where he and teammates jumped into the fountains as they celebrated winning the 2018 Stanley Cup.

The 2025 Stanley Cup Final is about as tight as it can get through the first two games. Both of the opening two games have gone to overtime for the first time since the 2014 Stanley Cup Final. The teams have been within a goal of each other for all but 77 seconds. There have been four lead changes for just the second time in the past 42 seasons. There also have been six tying goals, just the second time that has happened.

The Stanley Cup Final is shifting to the Florida Panthers' home arena in Sunrise, Florida, for Games 3 and 4. And that means the return of the barrage of plastic rats being thrown onto the ice after a Panthers victory at Amerant Bank Arena. An octopus (representing the eight wins once needed to win the Stanley Cup) occasionally lands on the ice during Detroit Red Wings games. Nashville Predators fans sometimes sneak in a catfish and toss it on the ice.

The 2025 Stanley Cup Final is changing venues this week with a 1-1 tie in the best-of-seven series. That's a big difference from last year's series between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers when the Panthers won the first three games and the Oilers won the next three before Florida clinched the championship with a Game 7 victory. Last year had no overtime games but this year, both games have gone past regulation. The Oilers won Game 1 at home on a Leon Draisaitl overtime goal.

The Edmonton Oilers have two things they didn't have in last year's Stanley Cup Final: home-ice advantage and a lead in the series. The Oilers' 4-3 overtime win in Game 1 means the Florida Panthers will need to come back if they're going to repeat as Stanley Cup champions. Game 2 is Friday night. "We learn more from adversity than we do from winning," Panthers forward Carter Verhaeghe told reporters on Thursday.
