How many teams have been down 3-0 in the finals? Cant see it being a huge amount with only having the one finals per year. Bigger sample size in the other rounds

In a lot of cases I'd assume the team down 3-0 is the inferior team but I don't feel like that's the situation here

Regardless it's a highly unlikely scenario but at this point they only need to win 2 in a row

HF's number 1 vote was tonight in 6 for the Panthers.

It's a weird psychological journey for the reverse sweep.

Eg. down 3-0.. you don't give a shit, sticks are loose
Down 3-1 .. you are expected to lose, no pressure
Down 3-2 - you just won 2 in a row, You are at home. Now the pressure is squarely on you!

Curious how the Oilers deal with the circumstances. I'm nervous as hell and, a week ago, I'd totally given up on the series and thought it'd be over by now.

Go Oilers and thrilled I get a Friday night game in Edmonton!

I don't know how many times it has happened but I believe only the leafs have come back to win in 42 I think.

who was the idiot that asked McDavid if he was looking forward to the 7 hour plane trip?

Tkachuk?

WTF is up with these damn breaks between games? If there is a game 7.. We gotta wait 3 days? f*** this..

You don't like watching Food Network and hanging out with the wife and kids for an extra day?

 

[HabzSauce]

No we haven't, stop projecting.

You speak for every casual eh

Yes and there were only 2 rounds then.

 

[Ol' Jase]

Honestly Draisaitl must be hobbled by injury... his play is merely human at this point. OTOH all this time off might work to his advantage.

He absolutely is. It’s forgotten the he was injured in the Dallas series significantly enough that he had to pull himself from a shift immediately after coming back from the room in Game 3.

 

[Seattle Totems]

No NHL team has ever completed a reverse sweep in the 3rd or 4th round. Teams are tired and injured by that point. In the final there's always a few games that could have gone either way because of bounces. Elimination games are generally very tight. If the Oilers pull off a comeback they're going to need to be dominant and lucky.

Game 7, holy crap! Lol.

 

[BlueDream]

Well I have to root for Edmonton now on Monday. That would be unreal to watch.

 

[Pucklington]

Legendary series regardless of ending...

 

[Svencouver]

Ken Holland is a genius. I'm sorry I ever doubted the greatest hockey mind of all time.

 

[CanadianHockey]

Phenomenally entertaining series

Ken Holland is a genius. I'm sorry I ever doubted the greatest hockey mind of all time.

The one deal he made that make him a genius is the Ekholm trade. He has come in and been a god on the backside

 

[TheGuiminator]

Sticking with my prediction : Oilers in 5

 

[TMLegend]

Not the route that I thought they would take, but my Oilers in 7 prediction is still holding up well.

Game 7 is gonna be crazy.

 

[jigglysquishy]

The most entertaining series I can ever remember.

 

[Omni Owl]

Its joever for FLA, no f***ing way they recover from this. All the pressure is on em. This is potentially the worst collapse in NHL history in the making.

The knoblauch hire is one of the greatest hires of all time. Instantly turned their team into the best offensive and defensive team in the league, engineered the greatest PK we've ever seen, transformed their systems play overnight, and has totally and utterly outclassed every coach he's faced in the playoffs. One of the best coaching seasons in league history.

McDavid looked like a Panthers player tonight

 

[Luigi Habs]

McDavid will wake up for Game 7 and end his slump of 1 game without a point.

 

[Muffin]

The boringest series in recent history is turning into one of the most interesting one. Let's just say game 7 on the road in the finals hasn't been kind to Canadian teams though...

 

[Zalos]

It is time for McDavid to do something legendary. Game seven! Let's complete the miraculous comeback.
