I'm getting tickets for Edmonton's home opener next season. I want to be there for the "deserved to win" banner raising ceremony.

 

[Mobiandi]

Several breakaways included.

And There is stuff on you tube

Henrique and Nugent Hopkins? Who cares they are 3rd liners, Bob needs to stop those

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Maybe I’m missing something but the word dominating may not apply to the team that loses unless there is some emotional gratification and in that case I’m sorry but it means absolutely nothing in terms of tommorow.
I can say that Bob was dominating it’s all relative.

Apparently just saying "I thought Edmonton played real well despite the result" without turning the hyperbole up to 11 is a bridge too far. I've lived through the entire internet age, I should know better...

I think I’ll wear all black out there today.... I like wearing all black, it looks so cool.


looks very “cool”

Hurry up....I need the a/c and a ice cold beer!

The No1 C in the game Connor McDavid:

0p 25.19min -2 and a superb 33.3% FO

"I only play for points. Back-checking is for others"

You are right he was garbo by all regular and advanced stats. European media called him out too for 'running around recklessly' and usually being too gassed to back check at all.

I think that getting the win in game 1 was more important for Edmonton than it was for Florida. Because the Panthers always gets better as series goes on. It’s been the case since last year playoffs.

Edmonton might feel confident after the game since they dominated. But they’re about to face a different beast in game 2.

On the other hand, can the Oilers be better than they were in game 1?

Not gonna lie though, Edmonton impressed me. Panthers never got so badly dominated in a playoffs game since playing Tampa in 2022

Excuse me Bob dominated Edmonton that was sheer domination.

 

[iCanada]

Obligatory "we all hate the Capitals" and RIP Capfriendly post. </3

 

[Ratsreign]

While Edmonton was dominating much of the play, Bob was dominant.

Thankfully he didn’t have to do it for three periods straight. 2 was already pretty amazing

1 zip Florida. Thought Bob was very good. Nice to start with a shutout at home. Onto game 2! Hoping for a split.

 

[T REX]

Elite teams find a way to win...jmho

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Were you lackadaisical when the Habs made the final a few years ago or did you wanted them to win?

quite lackadaisical our roster was garbage on paper no suprise we got stomped by Tampa that was a powerhouse

I think most Hab fans were pretty ecstatic they got so far, it was pretty unexpected and they knew Tampa was a superior team

A day later and I don't like some of the portrayals of what occurred.

Yes Bobrovsky was dominant, but Edmonton failed to get quality shots above a foot off of the ice. The Panthers played solidly with strong performances from a few of their secondary guys (Bennett, Verhague). The Panthers also did well at stifling clear shots on net in the third getting sticks and bodies on almost everything.

Edmonton looked stifled and slightly frustrated as much they dazzled with their passing and speed.

It was a tough exciting playoff game, but it feels like Florida's fine effort has been reduced by many to a Bobrovsky win instead of good win by the team overall (notwithstanding spectacular play by the netminder).

Who’s #1

 

[Ratsreign]

Who’s #1

I give you one guess

 

[Three On Zero]

I give you one guess

Can I have two big guesses?

 

[CanePanther]

All this talk about Bobrovsky while there’s been zero highlights of his saves circulating. He got a shutout, but he was good not great. Made the saves he needed to make

Well hers the thing if the Oilers were dominating then Bob did a masterful job…..

 

[Arthur Morgan]

damn, Fla came out flat and still won the game. only 1 games so means very little but have to assume they are better in game 2. oilers gotta win game 2

 

[Breakers]

Either the Edmonton video coach is complete idiot or Edmonton dropped the ball.

They pointed out before the game
Shoot high
Everyone knew that.

3 separate break-aways, and a Constant HD scoring chances shot directly at the five-hole or low

Yet Bob hasn’t surrendered a single goal in the five-hole all playoffs
