Around the League Thread | Where elbows aren’t penalties and what’s the capital of Thailand again?

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Attaboy, Tarasenko!!!! Let’s go!

What a save

 

[Bonham]

That's a huge save.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Credit where it’s due, that’s a huge save - and a tricky one at that as it was a knuckler. Would have been easy to flail at it but he just made sure his forearm got in front.

At some point gotta count on Nurse/Ceci/Skinner to shit the bed here.

The only times I’ve seen Nurse so far were him taking an idiotic penalty, and just now where he had all day to make a decision and iced the puck.

Yeah not too worried, lots of guys in the Oilers can't handle the pressure the Panthers put onto the puck so even if they don't have much possession they can chain grade-A chances pretty quickly.

 

[Jyrki]

Damnit... Skinner make a good decision to play the puck while the Panthers went to change, easier to score when they aren't set ig

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Of course when I actually turn on the game Edmonton scores.

 

[Peen]

Ekblad legit looked like Panthers legend Erik Gudbranson on that play

 

[rypper]

Just saying... I heard some Florida sports radio earlier today and they were discussing the parade route. Bad bad karma.

If this game gets out of hand it could get out of hand……

[Ace of Hades]

Absolute dog shit start.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Oilers are converting on their chances at the moment. Skinner stole a goal, and the posts another for Florida - but the run of play has been fairly even. Score is 3-1, but lots of hockey to play.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Turned it off. You can tell when it isn't a teams night.

Florida better come out for Game 5.

if it’s close come the third, the oilers have proven over n over that they aren’t consistent enough holding leads

and that was against teams that weren’t matching them 1:1 at evens before that… like the panthers are

Nhl wants more games management by refs will run this one cant in Florida

I haven’t seen an Oilers game where they are winning 4-1 or losing 4-1 where I think “it’s over”. They’re capable of insane comebacks, but also ridiculous chokes.

Game is still in reach for Florida, they just need the next goal. Keep chipping away. First period was probably the most evenly played of the series, IMO - Bob just couldn’t take away a sure goal for Florida, and Skinner managed to do so for Edmonton.

Does a team have the chance to win the Cup tonight? Asking because watching CBC, I’m left with the impression only one team is playing.

Cats need one now and quit thinking about cup just play

 

[EpochLink]

Down by 2 goals, Panthers aren’t panicking

 

[Jack Burton]

Gotta hand it to Edmonton as they came to play. Now for the epic collapse

BBQ is up to temp and ready for the steaks!!!

Exactly. Reason why Edmonton is so fun to watch is because no matter the score the game is never over!

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

Of course when I actually turn on the game Edmonton scores.

turn it off, go to your fuse box, switch it off and throw your TV out.

E: then blindfold yourself and sit in a corner in your basement.
