SCF: Florida Panthers vs Edmonton Oilers, 8pm ET, ABC, ESPN+

[Sniper99]

Wouldve loved to see Gazdic show up 1st intermission. Roll the chair around and say. "IM BACK!"

 

[Pablo El Perro]

First 3 rounds I just felt like Hrudey and Bieksa were not on our side at all.lol

They played for other teams. Both better commentators than players, but that says more about their NHL careers.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

why do you hate Blake Coleman?

Overpaid and overrated middle sixer who got way more credit than he deserved for being part of a good team prior to signing his undeserved too rich contract. A better Troy Brouwer.

 

[JimmyH]

42 unduplicated visual/audible advertisements in the final 3 mins of P1.

 

[oilers4life5]

Start diving like the panthers boys. Only way to get the calls.

 

[kingsholygrail]

NBA style music before the game. Bring in former NBA player for intermission analysis. ESPN sure knows the NHL audience.

Basketball is their top sport. They're going to use all the other sports to market it.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

So this reverse of game 1?

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

Yeah, gosh forbid they bring in some hockey greats to promote the sport and provide analysis.

Yeah I can't wait for decades old milquetoast takes and the same shit we have had over and over. It's how we get stuck with Kevin Weekes, Mark Messier and Anson Carter as the NHL's contribution to the war against insomnia.

I'm fine with the 5, but is it really seriously injured when you're back 10 minutes later?

Does a player have to be seriously injured for a major to take affect or does reckless behavior play a role?

 

[robertocarlos]

"You never had a real job".

"That's not my fault".

 

[gn2007]

The Panthers have studied Kucherov for the past five years and now they're finally reaping the reward of this academic research.

Living rent free always.

 

[mkatcherin00]

The acting jobs on foegele knee and that last Tkachuk call were 10/10

Ekblad too

Don't put yourself in a position to let those floppers do that

 

[TheUnusedCrayon]

Is that not what Luostarinen did?

Yes, but the difference was the kneeing act. Had he gone for a hit then it isn't even a penalty.

 

[Daximus]

I really don't understand the penalty for a player jumping out of the way of contact and the other player following through getting the penalty. The player jumping out of the way should get 2 minutes for being a wuss. Goes for both teams.

 

[ZDH]

Bieksa is breath of rotting garbage. Guy is a muppet.

You a "throw my coworkers under the bus Ron" guy?

 

[Bounces R Way]

Sportsnet is so far up McDavid's ass they can't even find their way out anymore

 

[SJSharksfan39]

They couldn't afford an NFL type desk for the NHL Final? They are all squished in like sardines. Thankfully we are no longer at the height of Covid, but can get claustrophoic and that looked way too close just watching it.

Nice of ESPN for bringing on Barkley after he has been bashing the network a few times in the last week. That might be awkward for the executives.

 

[snag]

Nurse is standing and not sitting cause of his hernia. Sitting was a real bitch when I had mine....

 

[Scema12]

Start diving like the panthers boys. Only way to get the calls.

Apparently. I mean the league doesn't properly handle dives or embellishments so why wouldn't players keep doing it

 

[BB79]

Np offence to Shaq but I agree with hanging out with Bettman.

I'd rather hang with Shaq than that weasel Bettman myself

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

I miss draisaitl from the canucks series

 

[um]

I love Bieksa but the last 2 rounds he's had some awful takes.

Me to. I guess he's a dirty hits apologist. Fair enough.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Basketball is their top sport. They're going to use all the other sports to market it.

To be fair, Chuck is better than any of these personalities without personality.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

impeccable form

 

[oilers4life5]

Too bad Bouchard has some integrity or we would have had a 5 min Powerplay.

 

[robertocarlos]

Overpaid and overrated middle sixer who got way more credit than he deserved for being part of a good team prior to signing his undeserved too rich contract. A better Troy Brouwer.

I don't want to know his salary. I'd probably puke.
