Cats in 6 (realistically)

Cats in 4 would be the dream scenario though.

 

[Giggli G]

Vancouver was better than Dallas

 

[Cats2TheCup]

Rags fans were warned of Florida’s forecheck and said the same thing “oh they said the same about Carolina”. Lol.

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Go Oilers.

 

[Quinning]

Vancouver was better than Dallas

They know.

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Going into the playoffs, I kept hearing about the West being a bloodbath. Now that the Oilers have made it through, it was somehow a cakewalk.

They were the best in NHL after the early season coaching change. Every perceived weakness of this team has stepped up in the playoffs.

The Panthers are a great team, but the way the Oilers are already being written off...again...is very HF.

 

[CupofOil]

Are you ok tonight? Has anyone checked in?

He's in shambles. Let him enjoy his fill of copium, it's all he has left.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Cats have been to the big dance before…they know now what to do. A la Pens in 2009

Edmonton will played scared and be in over their heads I think….

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

I’ll be honest, I don’t love the matchup for the oilers….


But I’m sticking with them to win the cup… as they were my original pick, do it for Mcdavid

10 shots on goal tonight.

I mean, that works both ways.

They beat old Stamkos and old Point.

They beat Zacha and old Marchand.

They beat Zibijenad and Trochek.

BIG step up coming.

Points old but zin and trochek are not?

 

[1909]

Will Corey Perry lose his fourth attempt to get a Cup with four different teams ?

 

[Canovin]

They beat the Kings. Kings have two ex-Flames: Cam Talbot, David Rittich.

Then they beat the Canucks. Canucks have two ex-Flames: Lindholm and Zadorov.

Then they beat the Stars. Stars have one ex-Flame: Chris Tanev.

Florida has two ex-Flames: Tkachuk and Bennett. . .

Holy shit we post the same thing but on different boards lol

I gotta love how this turned out. Not just because I am an Oilers fan, but so many good redemption stories in play here. Players that many people (including myself) wrote off at various points. Think about some of the players which were castaways from other teams but found a place in the Oilers.
Knoblauch taking over a team that was what, 3-9-1? What a job he has done in turning things around.

And I am most happy for Skinner. He was in goal through thick and thin this season and while it was a bit of a roller coaster at times, I am happy to see him in the SC.

It is going to be a great series. I personally think the Oilers are a "team of destiny" at this point and has battled through so much adversity, and been counted out at various junctures, that it is truly their year. And I couldn't be happier.

It's funny watching you guys hop from one bandwagon to the next every round.

Excuse me, once NYI was out I've been pulling for both of these teams. Avs were a close second in the West.

 

[Connor McConnor]

10 shots on goal tonight.

Ask Matt what it’s like to lose in 5

Wasn’t Lomberg a Flame?

 

[Cyclones Rock]

Bobrovsky going to return to his more traditional "playoff Bob". Oilers will get into his head and he'll fold like a cheap suit.

 

[Cats2TheCup]

Ask Matt what it’s like to lose in 5

He didn’t have a Barkov on his team. Prepare to reevaluate who the true goat is.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

No way McDavid and Draisaitl get this close and don’t seal the deal, both guys playing like absolute animals

 

[Nemesis Prime]

I voted Oilers in 6 in every series and I'm doing it again.

Edmitten's year, boys.

 

[BelovedIsles]

Crazy. You just described the Oilers too.

Not really. The Oil have better top-end talent, the Cats better depth. Cats also have more reliable goaltending and D. The Cats are the best team in hockey, the Oil aren't too far behind.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Florida in 1!


Lots of over confidence in here.

 

[kingsholygrail]

It's up to you, Florida!

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

I can only imagine how upset you are right now, love it

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