The post game interview with McDavid is so cringe... he looks like he's about to cry.
How about bringing back the 1-8 seeding?Pretty sad for the "greatest sport on earth" to have such pathetic finals most years. Maybe instead of romanticising the game the league should try and make the product more entertaining? Love hockey but the NHL as a league is just complete ass and seems to get worse every year.

Best part of this is Roy at number 2 in '96 was against the Cats.
you can tell he’s a rookie
Here's the whole list of why the series is 3-0
1) Refs are favoring the Panthers
2) Panthers are diving all over the ice
3) Panthers are faking injuries to get sympathy from the league
4) Panthers suck, Bobrovsky is saving them from an onslaught
5) Oilers are playing injured
6) Panthers are slashing our players
7) Nurse, Skinner & Ceci
8) Panthers are wrestling our players after the whistle
9) etc
Very little about their coach's inability to adjust to the Panthers game plan, Knob is just using the same one dimensional plan he used in the regular season, also very little criticism of the lack of defense from McDrai, and Drai's invisibility in the finals along with Hyman.
Helps that Edmonton is throwing constant muffins at him
That`s very stupid play. Oilers actually help keeping BobCop warm and in the game. It`s easier for a goalie to play if they face longrange shots outside the perimeter, than facing fewer shots but from high-danger positions.Helps that Edmonton is throwing constant muffins at him
But, but... Barkov is at most a 10-15# forward in the league? He has nothing on McDavid, Draisaitl, MacKinnon, Pastrnak, Kucherov, Panarin, Rantanen, Matthews, Marner etc. Defensive play is SOOO overrated.I was mocked for even suggestin Barkov could slow down McDavid& Drai, not shut them down but to slow them down.
They were supposed to eat Barkov for lunch, what happened?

You need to get to high danger positions first. Not exactly easy against Panthers as they have proven in every series so far.That`s very stupid play.
