Man the panthers fans are going through it

what, the stages of denial? lol

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

it’s better for my heart that the Panthers are in this position

But man, could u imagine if the Rangers has blown a 3-0 series lead to the Oil

Would've had that if the Canes didn't have a paraplegic in net. And nah, the Rangers would be the team that does something like this and then wins game 7 on some of the flukiest shit ever lol

 

[njdevils1982]

This is what I imagine being a Mets fan is like. Only that is every year.

mets just f***ed up my cubs today..... shut yo mouth and let me enjoy this cats loss!

As a Mets fans that hates the Mets. f*** the Mets.

No one hates their sports teams more than NY Mets / Jets fans do. Condolences for the people who have both as their favorite sports teams. That's what alcohol was made for

 

[njdevils1982]

best of one series.

panthers are f***ed.

 

[MadDevil]

I don't know if I want the Oilers to pull it off or for it to all end in a wet popcorn fart when Florida beats them 4-1 in Game 7.

May well happen. The Panthers get back to basics, have some fun playing hockey, play defense first, let their chances come naturally out of their defense, get traffic in front of Skinner, shoot pucks into it and get a few bounces. I wouldn’t bet against it.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

I mean, Florida hasn't shown under Maurice that they can't actually start games off well. They have had 4 chances to get this done, blew 3 of them, they still have one last chance to do it but how do you feel confident in them not coming out slow? Also, this is ignoring the fact who's on the opposing side of you. McDavid is arguably the greatest player this sport has ever seen and you bet that he wants to have a legacy cementing game

 

[Emperoreddy]

I mean it's easy now. Let Rico get a cup, and let this Panthers fan base cry

 

[Bleedred]

I’d probably feel a little bad for the Panthers if they lost two cup finals in a row.

Because I don’t think they’re coming back next year. This may be their final chance at a cup for a bit.

For Edmonton I think this is just the first cup finals appearance of potentially several in the next few years.

The East is gonna regress next year for sure. I don't mean to sound cocky + probably wrong thread but if the Devils can their act together a bit, there's no reason why they can't make a run. But definitely need to see what they do at the draft + UFA before I make that bold claim into more substantial.

 

[Guttersniped]

I think Edmonton is the more talented team. Florida was better run, structured and more prepared coming in and now Edmonton has figured it out and is running them out of town.

In the last two seasons, when Edmonton has been on they’ve been absolute beasts, looking like world beaters. They just aren’t on all the time.

The other thing too is that it’s not like McDavid is facing off against a Kucherov or Mackinnon. The closest thing Florida has to those guys is Barkov but as great of a two way player as he is, he’s definitely a tier below Connor and not quite at the level of those other two. McDavid is the most skilled player to come along since Gretzky, a once in a lifetime talent. I just don’t see him losing to a team that doesn’t have a superstar that’s even close to him.

 

[SKNJD9]

How the hell does FLA come back from this ? They have to dig deep ? Do they have it in them ? We'll see.

 

[NjDevsRR]

OH MY

You never know, Florida could be the Buffalo Bills of the NHL. Although there is some irony in the fact that they started their playoff run last year by coming back from down 3-1 against Boston and they may end this one by blowing a 3-0 series lead.

Also, my ability to curse teams these playoffs may go 2-0 in favor of the Oilers. I said they were going to waste McDavid and Draisatl when they were down against Dallas, they came back to win. Down 3-0 this series I said they'd get to watch the Cup being raised in their building in Game 4, and they've forced a Game 7 lol

 

[Emperoreddy]

Where has Tkachuk disappeared to?

 

[Richer's Ghost]

Where has Tkachuk disappeared to?

Watch he tore his rib cartilage or something when he dove to save that empty netter

 

[Brooklyndevil]

With the extra day off the Oilers were able to breakdown Florida’s game. The Oiler’s speed is killing them. Florida has to hope for OT and get a lucky bounce. They looked shocked and bewildered.It’s going to be tough for them to pull it out.

 

[Oneiro]

What an epic story.

It is kind of incredible how humans find another level when you put the gun to their heads.

 

[JrFischer54]

florida mailing in game 4 cost them? i mean say they lost the game but it was a hard fought game and they lose it in overtime do they finish it off in game 5? was the blow out what started all this?

 

[The Wumpus]

I'm hopping bandwagons from FLA to EDM. I appreciate what Florida did for us all in the third round, but I must choose chaos.
