Low Effort GDT 2024 Stanley Cup - Final

[Silencio]

I would be so annoyed at them singing Bon Jovi. There the kind of thing that turns the tide and makes you show up for game 7 to shut them up.

If you need that for motivation to show up for game 7 of the Stanley Cup final then you probably don't deserve to win it.

So do you overthink it and play Stolarz for game 7?

And they win 1-0 despite EDM 68 shots and Stolarz win the Conn Smythe lol

Seriously though its over and f..ing Cody Ceci is winning a Cup on Monday

I’ve never been a big Maurice fan but I know he’s the media darling for his Dad jokes that would crack up a Priest convention, this quotes is Paul Maurice in a nutshell and why his team will collapse.

Winning takes courage and Florida’s coach doesn’t show it, Edmontons coach does. As Bev Priestman said “you ask your players to show courage, you have to do the same as a coach:

"There was no way I thought you could conclusively say that was offside," Maurice said.

"I just know that when I would have had to have challenged that based on what I saw, I would not have challenged.

"I'm not saying it's not offside. We'll get still frames. We bring in the CIA, we'll figure it out. But in the 30 seconds that I would have made that call I would not have challenged."

It's not that I don't want them to get it correct, it's waiting 7 minutes to watch a replay from 10 different angles on a zone entry that had no material effect on the play before knowing if I can even celebrate a goal or not.

yah yah I know I thought it was mildly humorous

Florida looked unstoppable, relentless, the “wagon” that would be rolling up the Stanley Cup. What Edmonton has done the past three games has been remarkable, they have made them look look like they don’t even belong in the STF alongside them. This after Edmonton going down 3-0 early.

It’s been incredible to watch. And Edmonton of all teams looking like a defensive masterclass.

I put money on Florida to win it all after round 1, and our conditional pick improves if they win, so cool if they do.

On the other hand, seeing my childhood team win the cup in Cinderella fashion will be cool too.

I just hate all of the delays in actually playing these games!

So the last time a Canadian based team won the cup was 1993 ; Thirty one years;

Will the drought end Monday?

Of course. McDavid isn’t letting anyone else be better then him on Monday. Cup, Conn Smyth and a place amongst the top legends for this comeback

Pretty incredible that they do it with their PK too
EDM = PP usually
But their PK has been miraculous

I sure f***ing hope so!

I was definitely cheering for the Los Angeles Oilers that 1993 year though. I also would never cheer for the Canadiens no matter what lol. 33 years for me.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Given what's at stake, I'm surprised a Paul Maurice led team hasn't had a 4th line player just come out and clobber McDavid.

I don't like the Oilers, but I'd really like to see this guy win this and leave no excuses for entering legendary status.

I have my doubts. Although Edmonton has momentum, Florida has home ice and there's curse hanging over Edmonton that isn't over the state of Florida. I think the game 7 plays out the same way Oilers vs Canes did in 2006.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Impressed with Oilers coaching for adapting to the situation. Anyone who isn't a believer in how coaching can change the tide in a game/series is getting first hand examples, clear as day.

agreed. It's like the toe in the crease reviews from 1998/1999. It was dumb then and its dumb now.

The hat move at the blue line that ended up causing the offside absolutely had an impact on the play, it opened up options

Apologies if that’s not what you meant

My point is if you need to break out the csi microscope and coordinate multiple angles to determine if it was offside or not, it didn't impact the play. If there was a leg in the way that made it so they couldnt definitively say one way or the other and the goal stood, no one outside Edmonton fans would even raise a stink because you wouldnt even know

 

[bicboi64]

This is the most exciting SCF i've ever seen. Most important game in Florida's history because a loss is the biggest chokejob in NHL history, but a win can salvage their choking + give them their first ever cup which would silence the choking memes.

McDavid deserves the Conn Smythe even if EDM loses. A sweep would've sucked, but a loss now after McDavid has carried a couple of games, but also after EDM's depth has shown up, would be a heart breaker.

I love the crow i've had to eat for thinking the sweep would happen. C'mon Florida, don't choke tonight

LOL. You have unique “insight" into the way people think.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Jobs not done. One more to go. I have faith in the Oilers.

 

[Ouroboros]

Not long until we find out whether we're getting another 4th rounder this year or a 3rd in 2026. Exciting.

Major betrayal! She was only supposed to sing anthems for the Senators!

Crowd not letting her sing the anthem slowly
