Oilers Break 35-Year Drought with Stanley Cup Final Game 1 Win originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The last time the Edmonton Oilers led a Stanley Cup Final, Mark Messier ended up lifting the Cup for the team's fifth championship in a seven-year span.

The Oilers are looking to become the first since the Penguins that same year to flip the script from the preceding campaign and lift the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1990.
