I want to see more water bottles flying tonight in the Florida box

Drai has a big game tonight

 

[Soli]

Haven't seen any of our beat point it out, but Holloway out, Kane possibly coming in?

 

[McShogun99]

Cousins is a plug. They'll skate circles around him.

That fourth line will cost them the game, especially with us having last change.

If Kane is healthy that's a good move. It's a big 2 games and the second line got caved last game.

 

[guymez]

We need RNH to show up as well. How many times this guy would have scored if he one time the puck instead of dusting it?

Yup...he needs to be better too. He only has 1 goal in this series so far.
The reality is though that this team really needs their 2nd best player to step up and score at least 1 goal against Florida.

 

[Canovin]

That's our equivalent to Mahura in for Ekblad. Most likely us doing our part in the mind games

 

[McDrai]

Haven't seen any of our beat point it out, but Holloway out, Kane possibly coming in?

That would be…interesting. I know Holloway did have that bad slip up last game but I feel like he’s an energizer bunny out there, at least giving it his all and forechecking as best as he can.

 

[Dynamic]

There is no way Holloway is out for Kane. That would be insanity. If the 2nd line is getting caved there is 0.0% chance Kane would change that. He isn’t exactly known for being good defensively and has been a liability along the boards to be honest.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Don't get cocky tonight boys.

 

[oXo Cube]

Board probably won't like it but Holloway was the worst player on the ice in the last game.

 

[Shanahanigans]

Holloway out for a hobbled Kane would be a brutal move , we need speed. If you want to add size, put him in for Ryan.

 

[McJadeddog]

However it ends, and whatever happens, tonight, this has been a hell of a ride and something I'll remember forever. Proud of the team no matter what.

 

[JordanGalhanth]

Honestly not sure that I like Kane coming in. Holloway might be a liability, but I feel like Kane is a higher risk for dumb penalties and the play dying on his stick.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I don't feel like Kane has been effective at all in the playoffs and while Holloway did have some struggles last game it shouldn't be enough to yank him.

 

[McJadeddog]

I really hope Draisaitl is feeling better, he can make a big difference !

The rumor for Drai is broken ribs, if that is true, that isn't something that heals with a couple extra days rest between games unfortunately.

 

[Canovin]

I agree.

Kane-McLeod-Perry

 

[orangewinter]

Hopefully Edmonton Shows up tonight and treats the game like a game 7.

 

[McJadeddog]

Haven't seen any of our beat point it out, but Holloway out, Kane possibly coming in?

That would be a terrible call by the coach if true.

 

[Ol' Jase]

Had a thought this morning...

For us oldtimers, especially those who witnessed the '80's runs, this is an exciting experience, but it's not new. Even those who were old enough in 2006 have experienced the excitement first hand.

However, for an entire new generation of fans, tonight is the biggest game they have ever witnessed. Those lucky enough to be in the building are in for an experience they will never forget for the rest of their lives.

This is what being a fan is all about. These moments are why we watch the hundreds upon hundreds of games leading up to this point.

Bingo. Just like in '06, fans get made on nights like this one. Hopefully a lot of happy fans in Edmonton!

Holloway has 2 goals in this series so far. So does McLeod.
They are the leading goal scorers on the team behind McDavid in this series.

I am not sure how much of an upgrade Kane is offensivley and his defence has been very leaky.

 

[foshizzle]

I just heard that he hasn't been on the ice for an even strength goal for in the finals??? He and Leon will break out tonight.

 

[Messrules11]

We’ve been kicking ass since the Shania high fives, let’s keep it going.

 

[Valhallis]

Is it hockey time yet?
