Who does McDavid give the cup to first? Has to be Drai.

Skinner

Skinner

No shot IMO but what do I know.

I had no idea what Malort was until you posted it.
Thank you for the kind words. If you are ever in Tampa...HMU...i'll gladly meet up for a drink.

Same for you in Chicago! And if you find yourself in Chicago, no matter what, never try Malort!!!

 

[Quinning]

Mark Messier will run onto the ice, arms raised, and snatch the Cup away from McDavid.

I hope Game 7 is a close one. The only thing this series has been missing is a really back and forth high intensity classic. Have to think both teams will leave everything on the ice on Monday, do or die.

Game 3 was a good, close one

 

[DitchMarner]

That it was 3-0 doesn't matter now. The odds of a series comeback increase after each win.

FLA has home ice advantage, but EDM has momentum and McDavid. I have a feeling EDM will take Game Seven, but it's far from a certainty. I feel there's a good chance whoever scores first will win.

No shot IMO but what do I know.

He's a young goalie who's pulled it together at the right time in spite of the unprecedented amount of noise around him. He's a great story if they win.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

My only issue with any of this is that I don't think that the, 'if only Demko was healthy' thing is any kind of 'bad luck' that went against Vancouver.

Demko is injury-prone, he breaks down. Vancouver chose to build around him anyway and it didn't work out so (IMO... not that anyone asked) those are just breaks, not bad luck.

It'd be like an Oiler fan saying we'd have already beaten Florida if only Mattias Janmark was scoring more powerplay goals. Well, that was never gonna happen anyway.

Hate to bog down the thread with off topic stuff but this is a ridiculous post. He was overriden in 21-22 leading to playing thru injury & ultimately missing time in 22-23. Thats it.

This was a freak injury & they were over cautious with him prior to the playoffs. It was just bad luck.

(Sorry oil fans)

For sure, I just don't think he'd be the first one to get it.

Oilers still haven't won shit yet and the whole episode while magical has to be complete for the pundits to really lay it out. You know if they lose on Monday almost none of this matters.

But hypothetically if they actually manage to pull it out on Monday, my God there are not enough adjectives in the dictionary to describe how amazing that would be for the oil and how historically epic of a collapse that would be for Florida. You'd have to think the Oilers' roster is pretty safe no matter what happens, and well, the Panthers possibly, just maybe, would consider blowing it up if they choke this away. Or at the very least very serious roster changes.

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

Amazing comeback!!! Go Oilers - finish the job, win the Cup!!!

 

[Shibumi]

Skinner

Nuge.

 

[JFedol]

Edmonton has faced elimination 5 times in these playoffs and they find many f***ing ways to get the W.

Florida is C-O-O-K-E-D lmao, anybody expecting a close game on Monday especially with McDrai on the other side + Edmonton's momentum is expecting a major disappointment. It should be 6-1 Final on Monday barring any crazy shenanigans.

McDavid --> Nuge --> Leon for order of cup raises.

 

[End on a Hinote]

People are getting way too ahead of themselves. Still one more game to play amd Florida is getting three days rest and going home. They are not out of this.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Even though I don't think it would have changed the outcome at the end of the game but this shit needs to get removed from reviews.

(Sorry oil fans)

Sooooo your argument is he's not injury-prone because he's only missed significant time in the last three consecutive seasons?



Okay.

 

[Cup or Bust]

The Canucks were severely outplayed and this weird complex Canucks fans have needs to stop lmao. You lost in round 2, this is the SCF. Your team was inferior and lost for a reason, just move on buddy

Hey, if they want to crown themselves the 2024 Excuses Cup Champions, it's cool.

 

[Metroid]

Saw a punk band last week from Edmonton (called Choke) on tour with A Wilhelm Scream in Toronto.... Bassist sporting an Oilers jersey, I jokingly chipped him from the crowd, cheering on the Panthers (they made it 3-0 that night). Irony of the Panthers being the ones to Choke now. Monday night is gonna be epic one way or another.....

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Oilers nerves will match that of the Cats on Monday. This is worse case scenario for the cats obviously but going against McDavid in a winner take all game is probably scary to put it lightly.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Maurice: "There's no way I would have challenged that"
Knoblauch, 20 minutes later: "I wanted to challenge it right away"

Entirely different perspective. Oilers are one of the most dominant clubs on special teams in recent playoff history, Florida powerplays have only been a confidence booster for EDM.

I think you challenge that every time as Knoblauch given how important the swing was & how great your PK is.

 

[UpHere]

None of it means anything. They will never admit to getting breaks, and ultimately it doesn't matter because they're a game away from the Stanley Cup.

I've made peace with whatever happens. Connor was eventually going to figure out how to win.

one lesser adversary flies the white flag - Hogtown could learn a lesson

 

[Quinning]

People are getting way too ahead of themselves. Still one more game to play amd Florida is getting three days rest and going home. They are not out of this.

People thought Carolina was f***ed in 2006, and they lost two brutal games in a row. That shorted goal against in Game 5 by Pisani looked like it destroyed them.

 

[Dread Clawz]

How is there note more chatter about the offside review in this thread? Are we seriously all OK with this??
It is ruining the league. I honestly don't even care about game 7 after that call.

It makes no sense whatsoever. I've never bought into to conspiracy or corruption, but there is something fishy about that one.

It was way too close to declare an overturn. You don't call that BS in game 6 of the Final. Should have been 2-1 one minute into the 2nd with Florida getting some momentum.

 

[booyakasha]

The Edmonton Oilers are good hockey team.
holy f***
