The Panthers are back in the comfort of their home arena to try to win the 5th game of the final and lift the Stanley Cup in Florida.
Paul Maurice is trying to ignite a spark in his lineup and has decided to make a change to the East champions' 4th line.
Ryan Lomberg is back in the lineup and is an energy player ready to motivate his teammates at any moment with concrete action on the ice.
It's also official for the Florida Panthers. Offensive pests Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Bennett skated this morning and will obviously be on the 2nd line for this crucial match.
All information has been confirmed by RDS journalist François Gagnon:
"Optional morning skate for #Panthers today in Florida: Tkachuk, Bennett, and Ekblad, absent yesterday, are on the ice this morning as expected. Lomberg will be inserted into the 4th line."

The Panthers will attempt to win their first Stanley Cup in franchise history tonight in front of their fans.
If the Oilers manage to return to Edmonton for a 6th game, the tide could certainly turn. It promises to be exciting!
