SCF - Game 7: The Game of Fates, 8pm ET, ABC, ESPN+

[Bruinswillwin77]

I predicted in my NHL Bracket challenge that Edmonton wins the cup and 47 goals are scored in the finals. There's been 38 so far - need 9 to make my prediction work.

I said 7-2, but I could be ok with 6-3 instead for Edmonton win

Either way you'll be really close.

I just really hope this is not a ref game.

I hope I'm wrong, but I can see the Panthers coming out hard and the refs just call penalties to try and gift wrap the cup for the NHL's biggest star.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I don’t even know how the players can play. The nerves must be overwhelming.

First time for everything, I guess.

I thought we'd be great in regular season and meh in playoffs unless another great trade like last year's Ek trade.

So we start the regular season spectacularly bad
Fire the coach that I loved
Hired a stranger
Hired an OBC guy as an assistant
I was pissed!
Then we go on a run for the ages.
Bouch emerges as a .ppg Dman

We hit playoffs... I think we should beat LA in 7. Worried about Nucks. Positive Dallas finishes us. Positive Florida finishes us.

And here we are... one crack at a cup! Never saw it coming.

Agree with the sentiment on the GDT

This could be 5-0 Florida
5-0 Edmonton
3-2 in a thriller
a legendary Game 7 OT coinflip

Can Florida lose 4 in a row
Can Edmonton win 4 in a row
McD with 4 points
Barkov shuts us all down and Bob with a shutout

My sleep last night sucked. May the luckier/best team win!

Go Oilers!

 

[Czechboy]

AND.lol

1985

Czechoslovakia wins the World's in Prague
Edmonton wins the Stanley Cup

2024
Czechs win the World's in Prague
Edmonton is in Game 7 of the finals

Destiny?

No ticky-tack calls from the refs hopefully.

 

[AussieBomberJet]

Okay Panthers. You've blown a 3-0 series lead when you should have swept the Oilers when you've had the chance. It's now game 4 and you only have one chance to put the Oilers down once and for all. So bloody well DO IT already!

 

[Phil Brooks]

Game 4-7 Skinner will be Game 4-7 Skinner again tonight. Oils take this one 4-0 and complete the reverse sweep. Oilers complete their storybook year and history will be made.

 

[BlueOil]

I'm going to throw up

 

[Sasha Orlov]

I think Edmonton scores a couple early goals and completely deflates the building and the Panthers and the game is not particularly close

 

[Mr Kot]

 

[Prominence Problem]

If Florida wins Barkov will be the first ever Finnish captain to win the cup.

 

[Just Rude]

3-2 in overtime. Just has to be OT.

The winner? No f***ing idea.

 

[BaconNater]

The only way I could see McDavid and the Oilers losing this game is if they have Kyle Dubas give McDavid the same pre game speech as he did to Marner for their Game 7 in the Amazon series when they lost to Montreal

Funny because last goal I saw, (not counting empty netters) Barkov made Skinner look like a JV high school goalie.

June 24 and there's still hockey. Glad this is over after today.

Speak for yourself. I want hockey in July. Canadian summers are boring AF.

If a team commits an infraction it needs to be called. Simple as that.

 

[lextune]

If the Oilers score first I could see the Panthers completely collapsing.

If the Panthers score first, I could still either team winning it, so for the sake of an exciting game I'm really hoping Florida gets on the board first, (and early).

 

[NewtJorden]

Mentally i think the Panthers are no longer there. If they somehow manage to remember how to play hockey early on, they might have a chance. If not, Oilers will have one more easy win to take the Cup.

Cope it out my man

Some people sounding like Canuck fans back in round 2. No need to whine about refs before the game has even started.

 

[Czechboy]

Funny because last goal I saw, (not counting empty netters) Barkov made Skinner look like a JV high school goalie.

It was an absolutely gorgeous goal. He didn't just make Skinner look like a JV goalie but also the 2 Oilers he danced around!

However, gorgeous goal or shitty goal of a shin and in.. they both count as 1. The score of that particular game was 5-1 regardless of how beautiful the Barkov goal was.

So, if any Panther wants to deke Skinner out of his socks for 1 beauty goal tonight... I am all for it. Hopefully we can muster 2 goals to counter that (pretty or not).
