The only team to complete the comeback was the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1942 – and the Oilers will hope to become the second to do so.
Edmonton is coming off three straight games of dominating Florida on the scoresheet, including their 5-1 win in game six this past Friday.
Connor McDavid will have his eyes set on getting back on the scoresheet as the forward is having a postseason for the ages.
McDavid has 42 points in the playoffs, the fourth most ever in a single postseason run, behind only Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux.
Puck drop is at 5 pm PDT.
