Stanley Cup live updates: Panthers at Oilers Game 2
Florida Panthers' Seth Jones (3) checks Edmonton Oilers' Corey Perry (90) as Connor McDavid (97) watches during the first period in Game 2 of the NHL Stanley Cup Final, in Edmonton, on Friday, June 6, 2025. It's Friday, downtown Edmonton is hopping and the hometown Oilers have a 1-0 series lead over the Florida Panthers in the Stanley Cup Final. The mood in the city is upbeat. Join us and follow along as we keep you updated from Rogers Place for Friday night's Game 2. 7:40 p.m. - Panthers tie it up Panthers defenceman Dmitry Kulikov's point shot sails through traffic in front, including regular Florida crease dweeler Matthew Tkachuk, and past Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner to tie the game 3-3 8:23 into the second period. 7:18 p.m. - 1st intermission thoughts OMG WTF did we just see in that action-packed first period? Everything. Including a all-time Top 5 Connor McDavid move. His assist on Leon Draisaitl's power-play goal was one for the ages. I compare it to his undressing last year of Dallas Stars defenceman Miro Heiskanen on a similar toe drag and lightning quick puck deposit behind goalie Jake Oetinger. Watch this absolute filth: 7:04 p.m. - Penalty to Bouchard Oilers defenceman Evan Bouchard is called for cross-checking Panthers centre Tomas Nosek. 6:59 p.m. - Are there tackling penalties in hockey? Panthers defenceman Seth Jones is called for holding Oilers forward Corey Perry 15:13 into the first period when he essentially tackles his opponent in the Panthers crease in a move sometimes seen in wrestling. 6:53 p.m. - Draisaitl scores after filthy McDavid toe drag for assist This Connor McDavid move is up there with his all-time best. The Oilers captain takes a pass from fellow start Leon Draisaitl, deftly dekes and toe drags his way through two Panthers and sets up Draisaitl for a power play goal after a Sam Bennett penalty 24 seconds earlier. 6:50 p.m. - Bennett falls onto Skinner Panthers forward Sam Bennett is called for interference 7:47 into the first period when he falls into Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner 6:48 p.m. - Jones goal ties it Panthers defenceman Seth Jones buries a feed across Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner's crease from winger Eetu Luostarinen to knot the score at 2-2 11:37 into the first period. 6:42 p.m. - Oilers go up on Bouch Bomb Evan Bouchard unloads a wrist shot from the point through traffic in front of Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky to put the Oilers up 2-1 9:19 into the first period. 6:35 p.m. - Kane scores for Oilers Oilers winger Evander Kane streaks into the Panthers zone untouched and scores on goalie Sergei Bobrovsky 7:38 into the first period to tie the game 1-1. 6:27 p.m. - Penalty to RNH negates Oilers power play Just seconds after Panthers defenceman Aaron Ekblad tooka holding-the-stick penalty, Oilers forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is sent to the box for tripping. 6:24 p.m. - Panthers score first Forward Sam Bennett scores on the power play to open the scoring 2:07 into the game following a high-sticking penalty to the Oilers' Evander Kane.

Tarik Skubal stars as the Tigers top the Cubs 3-1 in a matchup of division leaders
DETROIT (AP) — Tarik Skubal pitched one-run ball into the eighth inning, and Detroit Tigers beat the Chicago Cubs 3-1 on Friday night in the opener of a weekend series between two of the majors' best teams. Skubal (6-2) allowed eight hits, struck out six and walked none in 7 2/3 innings. In his past 11 starts, the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner is 6-0 with a 1.61 ERA, 95 strikeouts and three walks. Skubal left with runners on the corners, then had to wait out a dramatic moment. Seiya Suzuki lifted a deep flyball to right off Will Vest, but Kerry Carpenter reached above the wall to keep Detroit in front. Vest got four outs for his 10th save. Cubs right-hander Ben Brown (3-4) permitted two runs and seven hits in seven innings. Spencer Torkelson and Jahmai Jones homered for the AL Central-leading Tigers. The Tigers jumped in front in the fifth on an RBI single by Gleyber Torres, but the NL Central-leading Cubs responded with Kyle Tucker's run-scoring double in the sixth. That ended Skubal's scoreless streak at 20 innings, matching his career high. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Torkelson made it 2-1 when he connected for his 15th homer in the bottom half. Jones went deep in the eighth in his Tigers debut, belting a pinch-hit drive off Génesis Cabrera. The game, attended by a large contingent of Cubs fans, drew a crowd of 40,132 for the third sellout at Comerica Park this season.

Carlo Ancelotti's son Davide joins Brazil as an assistant coach
SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazil's soccer confederation announced on Friday that Davide Ancelotti had joined his father, Carlo Ancelotti, as an assistant coach for the five-time World Cup champions. Davide Ancelotti started his career as an assistant coach in 2015, following his father at Napoli, Everton, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Brazil's soccer body said in a statement that the 35-year-old Davide Ancelotti's arrival 'represents another step in our search for innovation and technical improvements.' 'His international experience and training methodologies will be fundamental for the players' development and for the construction of an even more competitive team,' it said. Carlo Ancelotti's debut with Brazil at Ecuador on Thursday ended in a 0-0 draw, which kept the team in the fourth place in the South American World Cup qualifying standings. Davide Ancelotti is expected to be on the bench on Tuesday, when Brazil hosts third-place Paraguay. Davide Ancelotti initially followed in his father's footsteps as a professional footballer at AC Milan's youth team and then at Borgomanero, but he retired at the age 20 to work in management. He holds a degree in sports science. Davide Ancelotti's coaching career started in 2012 as a fitness coach at Paris Saint-Germain. He had a similar role at Real Madrid from 2013 to 2015. His first assistant manager position came at Bayern Munich in 2016 and then at the other clubs his father managed.
