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

[archangel2]

Bro too

well they would be

5-1 Panthers

with oiler fans complaining about 100 missed called

Time to get one past Bob and open the floodgates. Oilers were the better team last game and are going to win the series if they play like that every game.

Go high and pad side... Bob is playing over his head. This is not the same GT we saw all season, he wasn't even the top GT at one point. Need to get bodies around the net.

The guy that I think could benefit from this style is Nugent-Hopkins, he lives around the crease. I think all his goals are from with 6 feet. Rebound and get it high. Just watch out for Maurice bitching to the refs over interference because a skate touched blue...

It’s nice to have Florida resident, local hero and sports gambling guru Dave Portnoy in the Oilers corner. Nobody has done more for the city of Miami than that guy. In Florida men want to be him, women want to be with him and children tell their fathers that they wish Dave Portnoy was they dad.

You won’t find a local Panthers fan in Edmonton, panthers are hated there, they are a nuisance animal and Albertans are encouraged to hunt them. But not shoot them because that’s too easy for those vermin. Albertans have been known to kill them with their bare hands. The Panthers like to complain that they use cheap shots but they just can’t handle the devastating violence of hand to hand combat, which is why they cower and hide in mountainous regions out of the reach of superior Albertans, it’s why they are known as mountain lions here and not panthers.

Bob isn’t playing over his head, he’s had that level of play for most of the season

What knew flops and dives has McDavid been working on the last two days?

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

I just hope Corey Perry doesn't play tonight. Sick of him scaring all the Panthers players with his veteran grit.

Just saying, I can totally imagine him running Bobrovsky tonight or Thursday.

 

[J bo Jeans]

T

They got 5 PPs on Saturday they just didn’t convert.

They had 3 PPs lol

 

[Coffey]

Good stuff

 

[archangel2]

seems like the oiler coaching is in desperation mode to try shake the team up

I've read too many posts (a small handful) wishing or talking about running and injuring Bob. What the f*** is up with that?

Of course he is over his head, he is 35. All we have heard about was Stolarz until December when FL when on a 7 game win streak, that ended Stolarz talk.
Bob's season came out of nowhere, they thought he was done after last season. Even this season, coming into the Playoffs no one was going into the FL game trying to solve Bob as the key to win.

He will win the Conn Smythe if he keeps it up. We have not seen this type of run since Hasek when he was this age. Before this run, no one was comparing Bob to Hall of Famers.

 

[archangel2]

If Kane is injured why play him? He is a liability if injured

 

[RunItBackAgain]

KITTY CATS ARE ABOUT TO PURR!

In case there's any doubt, I'm not hoping for anything like that. Bob's been really awesome to watch. I've just seen enough of Perry's career to know he's absolutely capable of doing it.

 

[RunItBackAgain]

They had 3 PPs lol

I count

A mcdavid sell job
A soft high stick call
A super soft cross check/embellishment on Drai

I enjoy sharing interesting facts about Alberta. It’s not all good though, for example Tkachuk didn’t actually want to leave Calgary but Alberta has a no rat policy, and while he was temporarily granted reprieve due to his status and high net worth, eventually he was cast out. He was the last rat in Alberta as the others had been sent to rodent sanctuary cities in other provinces that are more accepting of them than the rat bigots in Alberta. Definitely not a good look but Calgary’s loss is Florida’s gain.

Can Edmonton pull another Canes vs Florida?

Bob isn’t playing over his head, he’s had that level of play for most of the season

And some players find another level come post season

Billy Smith saying hiya!!

His adjustments in the playoffs to this point have worked and he’s been consistently right, which is the complete opposite of your opinions about the Oilers which have been consistently wrong throughout the playoffs.

If you suit up you're not hurt. A certain level of play is needed and expected. If he's hurt, scrape him up and get some other mediocre guy in

 

[HolyGhost]

I can already tell mods will have fun tonight and once the oiler get behind by a goal or two? Grab the popcorn

 

[Mez]

McDavid and Bennett turned into each other, wasn’t intentional. The ref was right there watching it. 97 didn’t even look upset about it when it happened.

lol ok, totally normal reaction to raise your hand into his face.

 

[josra33]

They had 3 PPs lol

Yeah I realized I included the two coincidental penalties.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Expecting a good clean hard fought close game.
With no complaining about the anthem singer, the ice, the size of the crowd or the refs on here.
Also expecting world peace soon too.

Which reality were you watching this season?
