Don’t know how you can recover from back to back finals losses after 2 terrific years, would be absolutely devastating, more pressure on Florida.

 

[Chaos2k7]

Maybe on hfboards. Curious what the betting sites have it at.

Early favorites are the Panthers, because of home ice advantage mostly

 

[Ol' Jase]

You were literally one shot away from going to OT in game 7 to a team (missing its #1 goalie, #1 scoring forward and injured #1C) that didn't make the playoffs the year before. Sure, hang your hat on that.

It was an epic series.

 

[Spawn]

Tough series to call. I’ve felt reasonably confident in each series for the Oilers thus far in the sense that with everyone they’ve matched up against, when the Oilers are playing their best, they are the better team.

Not sure if that’s true with Florida or not. Always so hard to know how it’s going to shake down once the West meets the East.

I’ll go Oilers in 6.

And then we beat a team that was a favorite to come out of the west! I’ll hang my hat on that.

Better greasy than oily.

Doesn't greasy mean there is excessive oil?

Oh the conundrum

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

Hope the Bettman conspiracy theorists can admit they were wrong, got two small market teams going at it in the finals.

 

[TIGERCOOL]

Hope so I'd rather any other Canadian team end the Cup drought. I just think Edmonton is too dialed in to lose.

Florida went 12-5 against Vasi, Swayman, and Shesterkin. That's about as dialed in as you can get.

Panthers are -134 for series right now. So bet 134 to win 100

 

[SupremeTeam16]

Win or lose for Oilers fans this is an absolute win to watch Flames fans have to see either their most hated rival win the cup or the team that has two of their top picks win. Especially considering Chucky forced his way out and saddled them with the 10+ huberdeau anchor and Tjachuk became a late stage playoff performer.

Oilers fans have already won no matter how it goes.

Oh the conundrum

You already beat us once. Show some mercy.

Florida will win but it will be harder for them than many of you think. Florida will likely be better even strength but the Oilers PK and PP are both much better than any team Florida has faced.

 

[Idiot Stick]

McDavid vs Kulikov

Wonder if McDavid feels the pressure already

Traditional die hard market vs the most non-traditional market out there.

How does this prove them wrong? I mean if Florida wins this just pours gas on it lol

The Oilers’ powerplay is a thing of nightmares. I feel for Florida fans who have to sit through that for a full series.

 

[Coffey]

Florida went 12-5 against Vasi, Swayman, and Shesterkin. That's about as dialed in as you can get.

They beat the 1, 7 and 14th place teams in the reg season.
Oilers beat the 2, 6, 12th place teams.

Pretty even Steven.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

This final is going to be great for hockey. Both teams have a fabulous style.

Your profile picture is alarmingly close.

This will be a great series, hopefully it gets mean, I was let down by the Rangers, we play better when it's chippy.

I also couldn't believe the amount of hits passed up by both sides in the WCFs.

Get your hands dirty!

 

[Captain Controversy]

Oilers are going to decimate the Panthers.

McDavid will score double digit points.

Oilers in 5.

I said the same. Agreed.

McDavid vs Kulikov

Nah, he’s more than used to it.

Am I missing a joke? Edmonton is close to top 5 in league revenue.

 

[Norwegianoiler]

Edmonton is the favourite by far.

You really do think your words on this forum can affect the outcome of hockey games don't you?

Jesus, I can't do this thread anymore!
