My playoff picks have been good. Picked all first round correct. Have florida over dallas in the finals. But I think Edmonton will be there now.
I don't jack with the "in be tweens," had Florida / Dallas in the final, with Dallas taking it. Starting to feel like it might be Florida taking it all and certainly hope so, if the Oilers knock out Dallas.

Yes, I've admittedly let my disdain for the Oilers cloud my always worthless predictions. :thumbu:

What happened to all the Oiler and Holland haters?
I've no problem with Holland, still despise the "draft blessed" Oilers.

I have always enjoyed the Oilers. They have done plentiful of stupid things but they always try to entertain there fans.

Big fan of Coyote legend John Scott; Seven daughters!! I can't imagine.

Neither the Leafs or NYR "big 4" showed up.


Trocheck scored nearly every game through the entire playoffs and Panarin consistently was putting up points.

But yes I'd agree that when it mattered these guys didn't play big enough. Conference finals appearance is still a great accomplishment though.

I think NYRs biggest issue was the fact that they relied so heavily on the PP to win games. Florida played very very disciplined all series

LA is hoping the final doesn't go 7 - the PLD 1/3 buyout can't happen if it does.
I would doubt Blake wants to admit he fooked up but ownership might have different ideas.

Yes, the Oilers have been "draft blessed," but that's not their fault. Most complain about Holland, in fact, most around Edmonton complain about Holland and how he has built this team. Just proves how little most fans know about building a very good hockey team.:laugh: Having said that, I'm cheering for Florida, mostly because of OEL.

Dallas is golfing!!!

Hell ya!! Oilers Panthers!!

Skinner stole the show lol
When Skinner is hot he is great, but when he's not, look out. Skinner will have to be hot if the Oilers have any chance to beat Florida.

Edmonton live and die with their PP. If Florida can stay disciplined they have a great shot at the SC.

Panthers in 6.

Every year a team takes on that championship look…that’s the Panthers (you could argue Edm, too)…but Florida is deep, strong in all 3 zones and so balanced.

OEL is hoisting the Cup.

Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Matthew Tkachuk, and Paul Maurice. Three people who I'd really like to see win the Cup.

Tkachuk may be my favourite player in the league these days.

Absolutely wild that both Matthew and Brady Tkachuk went one pick ahead of both Coyotes picks. A little different lottery outcomes and we could have had the pair.

It's heartbreaking we couldn't get either. I'm rooting for the Panthers too!

Oilers in 6 is my prediction.
The chance of Oilers winning 4 straight now seems highly unlikely. I expect Oilers will win game 3 or 4 or both though. Wonder how bad Barkov injury is? If he's out of the playoffs that will be not good for Panthers going forward.

I'm no hockey analyst, but Edmonton needs to average more than 0.5 goals per game. :thumbu:

Will the Cats choke...yea or nay?

I say nay, but game 7 is looking likely.
