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

[TheUnusedCrayon]

I like that the refs are letting them play.

Just praying the standard doesn't change the first time Leon or Tkachuk step off the diving board.

So far neither have dove so far. Expecting a big 2nd or 3rd for both of them.

 

[Goose]

Felt pretty even, though Edmonton's inability to clear the zone could be very costly. Couple of glaring failure-to-clears.

 

[Tundra]

Florida comes in swarms at home and cycling below the dots. Edmonton will have to score on a counterrush.

 

[tabness]

It's like 2 decades of HF not being prepared for site traffic increases. It's impressive backend engineering if I've ever seen it.

this is the main reason Florida needs to put this away quickly in the second, most of the HF traffic gotta be Oilers fans lol

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Panthers were the better team in that period, but it's tied. Oilers will get their looks sooner or later.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Good road period for FLA.

Your best players have to be your best players, mcDrai better get the lead out and soon.

I love McDavid as much as the next guy but this is 4 periods now in the biggest of games and he hasn't been a difference maker. That's the thing with people anointing him as the best of all time, they forget about the other all timers and are just going with the guy who is an all timer but is playing now.

Think Mario and Wayne wouldn't be coming up big now?................you know they would. A guy like Mario ..................he' was a far more dangerous goal scorer then McD.


McD needs to grab the bull by the horns here, it's his moment, if he is as good as people say he is( which some are saying is better then wayne and mario).......................he will.


The balls in his court.

Florida can pressure all they want, but in the end I don't trust their defense to get the job done unless Bob is ready to carry them again.

Panthers haven't had execution since game 3. They went from being the most efficient team all playoffs to full on "how does this stick thing work?" level of skill.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Edmonton looks the worst of both teams. Almost like they just expected Florida to not come out strong.

If they don't get it going, this could get out of hand.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

I'm already onto my third whiskey of the hour

You gotta take a swig everytime they mention Mcdavids name. A couple posters said that the other game and I was like " nah I choose living ".

 

[robertocarlos]

Oilers are in trouble. They have to crush the Panthers or risk losing from some kind of dumb play.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Florida get the next goal then lock it down. No more D pinching.

 

[LeHab]

Number of people calling sick tomorrow in Canada, especially if this goes into OT.

And judging by the goal he's not.

Our defencemen and wingers are in complete failure mode that period. All of last game as well. They're playing cowardly. Not much McDavid can do when he isn't being passed the puck.

 

[William H Bonney]

Not that Subban is wrong but him being the messenger for sound defense will never stop being funny

 

[jetsforever]

Bobrovsky vs Skinner is like the stoppable force vs the movable object

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

I work with a bunch of Oilers fans. I hope they all get alcohol poisoning.

Could not agree more.

He needs to step up big time. Draisaitl too.

That was not a good period for them..

 

[Chinaski89]

I have no skin in this game financially or team, but I do have my pride of winning my friends bracket so do something McDavid. Carry the Oilers to victory.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Panthers were the better team in that period, but it's tied. Oilers will get their looks sooner or later.

Oilers had a few looks too but the Panthers are playing with more intensity.

 

[Auston Marlander]

Edmonton looks so lazy tonight. I've seen both Perry and Drain poke at the puck vs take an extra step. It's game 7...move your legs.

 

[Turin]

Imagine giving up 9 breakaways in the final.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Why couldn't FLA have come out this way in Game 4 or 5? If they did, we wouldn't be playing a Game 7.
