Nick Cousins to Face Oilers in Game 6: Panthers' Star Strikes Balance Between Intensity and Discipline to Thwart Edmonton's Power Play

Friday, June 21st, 2024

Nick Cousins is set to rejoin the Florida Panthers lineup for the Stanley Cup Final against the Edmonton Oilers.

Determined to contribute intensity without incurring unnecessary penalties, Cousins is stepping in for Kyle Okposo. Despite his past tendency toward penalties, he has been penalty-free during the postseason.

With an understanding of the Oilers' formidable power play, Cousins focuses on maintaining discipline and steering clear of the penalty box.

After observing the Final from the sidelines, Cousins acknowledges McDavid's outstanding performance and stresses the importance of minimizing power play chances for the Oilers.

Panthers coach Paul Maurice considers Cousins and Okposo as a dynamic duo and anticipates Cousins will inject energy into the team following two straight defeats.

Teammates Ryan Lomberg and Brandon Montour praise Cousins for his speed, team spirit, and his knack for energizing the team both on and off the ice.
