PPS we just won a game where we got 10 shots we can get goaltending too.

Thats not sustainable

 

[snag]

If someone ever does its peak Barkov who just won his 2nd selke and might become best defensive forward of all time

He's gonna be 29 before next season. Better get his ass in gear.

 

[behemolari]

Either Oilers win the cup or they lose against the eventual Stanley Cup winner three years in a row. Has that ever happened before? And especially it being three different teams?

I think Minnesota lose against winning Chicago 15 times in a row at least it felt like that

 

[SavoieSeason]

All 41 million Canadians are starving for a McDavid cup win. It is our honor and an absolute privilege to unite the country behind our hockey team. From Vancouver to Prince Edward Island, let us chant… LETS GO OILERS!!!

He's gonna be 29 before next season. Better get his ass in gear.

Think he has the same amount of Selkes as Bergeron had at this point. So on his way.

 

[bobholly39]

So generous, no sweep this time?

No. I'd like to see McDavid break 40 points and maybe take a crack at Gretzky's record. I figure more games is better for that.

 

[snag]

Think he has the same amount of Selkes as Bergeron had at this point. So on his way.

Yes I suppose he is. And this is nothing against Barkov. One hell of a fine player. Just not sure about a trophy awarded by the PHWA as the benchmark. Only so much runway in what is ultimately a short career if that's the way to go about it. And there is also Bob Gainey that a great many consider ahead of Bergeron too despite fewer Selke's (edit: I guess it is only fair to add the Selke was added in Gainey's 4th season......and he won the first 4).

I guess I will keep my yap shut and just enjoy what the hockey world has to enjoy and judge the body of work at its completion

Im looking forward to the painful heartbreak for the Oilers that’s about to come. They are in for a rude awakening.

You're awake! Speaking of rude awakenings... I think you're in for yet another.

 

[CashMash]

This is the best finals I could have hoped for as a fan. Either redemption for Barkov and the Panthers, or McDavid doesn't have to worry about a cup anymore for his legacy.

Dallas wouldn't have been bad either due to Heiskanen and the others, but I really hope Barkov wins one.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Pretty solid finals. While Edmonton has won it, it's been a while, so basically a "new" team to win it.


Is that a record for Perry ? Making the finals with 5 different teams ?

 

[bert]

I want the cup to go to a place where people actually truly care. I want McDavid to hoist it but that being said. This is a really bad matchup for Edmonton. Don't think their D is going to be able to handle Florida's heavy forcheck. Barkov is a bad matchup for the Oilers stars.

Hope I'm wrong but Cats in 6. Florida also gets to shoot on a goalie that literally isn't in the conversation as best in the league and Edmonton finally has to.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

M David in 6. He will up his game and get 5 ppg if needed.

 

[Strangle]

From Toronto …. Bring the cup home, oilers!

 

[sadpanda]

Never felt so sure about Florida as now. I don’t think Oilers are ready for the checking.

But what the h*ll do I know. Panthers in 5

 

[Connor McConnor]

Majority of HF picked stars in 5 or 6 so the fact it’s happening again shows how useless these polls are and how we love being the underdog.

Oilers in 6.

 

[2ndGenIslander]

Have cats in 5. I don’t see Edmontons stars being able to penetrate the panthers relentless style.

 

[Brooklyndevil]

This is a tough one. Every generational player usually wins at least one championship, especially in hockey and basketball, unless your name is Tom Brady. But with Florida’s defense and relentless forechecking it will be a bit difficult for McDavid. I’d like to see him win a cup but picked Florida in 7. Good luck to best hockey player in the world.

 

[Fishy McScales]

The habs are a western Canadian team?

Checks out to me.

 

[PhysicalGraffiti]

From Toronto …. Bring the cup home, oilers!

People keep pretending that commercial is a joke, yet posts like this are all over HF Boards.

Let's go Panthers, bring the state of Florida another Cup and even better at the expense of a Canadian team.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Florida in 5. I can't take the Oilers seriously at this point.

Plus, I'm rooting because ex-Jet Kulikov and Paul Maurice are what they're up against. Think Perry losing in the finals will continue to be a laughing gag.

 

[Fishy McScales]

truth hurts??

asterisk in that regular season win streak and another for barely "beating" the much deeper Canucks team in the playoffs.

deep down you oil fans know you weren't getting past the Canucks if Demko was available, it would've ended in 6.

it took a Soucy suspension, Demko and Boeser injury to beat the Canucks by 1 goal in 7 games.

when both teams were heathy and faced off 4 times it was a 4-0 sweep.

enjoy fluking all the way to the SCF though, I got the Panthers in a gentlemen sweep.

Are you still on about this?

Haven’t thought about that series in weeks, busy with other hockey and all.

But thanks for bringing it up, fond memories!

 

[CanePanther]

Early odds out for the series Cats favored -125 Edmonton +105

 

[BruinLVGA]

I am jumping on the Oilers bandwagon. Go get yourself the Cup, boys!

 

[The Management]

Throwing my full support behind Edmonton, and putting the petty HF bickering aside. My nephew is an Oilers fan, and it'd be cool to see him experience something I haven't (and perhaps won't).
