SCF: GAME 5 - YOU KNOW WHAT WE ARE HERE FOR: TIME TO FINISH THE REDEMPTION ARC. TIME TO FINISH THE JOB, 8PM ET, ABC

[Dust]

I don't think we're going to see a bunch of goals with the ice being this terrible. It's probably robbed us of a goal each way already.

 

[Straight Fire]

Florida better find the will to live again soon

 

[syz]

Am I crazy or were both teams handling the puck in the 1st period like I handle my life? Florida ice issue?

Ice definitely seems bad. The natural consequence of the playoffs going to mid-late June.

either that or every player is crossing their eyes in solidarity with Evan Bouchard

Oilers PK merchants who can’t score 5 on 5

 

[Marioesque]

Sure Barkov can “shut down” McDavid and Drai. But Brown and Janmark are unstoppable and continue clowning him.

If the expectation is that Barkov has to stop breakaways that teammates pass to oilers, then I guess you're right.

 

[Sir Loin]

It's funny. Florida up 3-1 in the series and down 1-0 in game 4 and half the people here are like, "NO CHANCE FLORIDA WINS NOW".

 

[HockeyVirus]

Oilers are finally getting it up and as a result getting it in.

Phrasing?

Elliot with his Scott Oake moment

“Oilers are finally getting it up and getting it in”

 

[BelovedIsles]

it's crazy, the entire arena looks different

I meant blue screen.

first time I have heard this term seems like a badge of honour. that one swedish u18 wjc team fit the bill as well

 

[Banjo Cat]

Luck could play a big part in this game the way the puck is bobbling.

 

[JPeeper]

Friedman: "they're getting it up and they're getting it in".

 

[TimeZone]

Once the shorty went in the ice tilted the other direction. Florida was killing them up until that powerplay.

Edit: great period overall for Oilers though. I'm happy.

Yeah Florida came out of the gate looking good, they then proceeded to generate little to nothing the remaining 75% of the period

2021 Habs are the undisputed GOATs

Has the NHL promoted cialis or blue chew on their stupid boards yet?

Smart play would just be throwing it at the net and not for the fancy plays.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Panthers have performed the biggest choke job in history, this series is over. Oilers win.

 

[TheBeard]

Momentum is a very real thing. It has clearly shifted. I still don't think they actually drop four straight.

It is, but this game reminds me a little of game 2.

Why not? He gets credit for Maurice’s team D prowess. He should get criticized when the opposite happens.

 

[Banjo Cat]

Yeah, fancy plays are bound to result in turnovers.

He kinda did a weird little body language thing after that like "what the eff did I just say"

 

[TheBeard]

Did they just say Willie Mays gone "too soon" at the age of 93??

I don't wanna live to 93.

 

[BTP]

"The oilers are now getting it up, and as a result, they are now getting it in"
...

PAUSE

Man Hockey terminology.. I KNOW they do this on purpose.

"They have great young D with good sticks"

WTF is this
