SCF | VI | "They Said 'I'll Bet They'll Never Make It', But Just Look At Us Holding On" | Oilers vs. Panthers | 5.21.24 | 6:00PM | SN

[lextune]

Oilers are suffocating the Panthers. Complete reversal since game 4

This is really it. The noticeably better forechecking team flip-flopped.

 

[Stickpucker]

Ride the lightning lads.

 

[Dirty Dan]

Bobrovsky going back to one of the worst contracts in the NHL?

No, he got them to within 1 game, maybe they can score some goals

 

[Angry Little Elf]

If the Canucks did this in the SCF, I would never watch another game for the rest of my life.

This is way worse than 2011 imho

 

[Czechboy]

I'm rooting for Edmonton but I saw nothing conclusive.

I didn't either.. I figure it was 1mm

1mm of puck

or

1mm of blade steel

 

[HockeyVirus]

If the Canucks did this in the SCF, I would never watch another game for the rest of my life.

Let's be honest... If the Canucks did it Vancouver would be burnt to the ground

 

[Jussi]

Power kill.

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

This is getting hard to watch.

 

[Turin]

Maurice is proven as a top tier NHL coach. If they fired him you'd see the answer to that by how quickly he'd be picked up.

I thought so too but what I am witnessing may be the worst collapse in pro sports history. Funny thing is all is forgiven if they win game 7, but I'm seeing Florida totally outplayed when they have every incentive to play with some heart.

 

[Axel Sandy Pelikan]

It's not ticky tack when the correct call was offsides. When his skate was no longer on the blue line the puck still was. Is that factually incorrect?

It can be the correct call and be ticky-tack. It's technically the right call, but it gave them no advantage.

You're telling me that they'd overturn that in OT? You can go sit on a railroad spike.

 

[Dessloch]

Looks like the Oilers have had more momentum the entire game. Do keep up.

Yes, because the refs gave them a 2 goal momentum swing, if you dont realize that has a lot to do with it then I cant help you.

 

[ProjectPanthers]

If the Canucks did this in the SCF, I would never watch another game for the rest of my life.

Ya most of us have agreed we are done when they collapse.

Like actually done. Starting to debate what I can sell my stuff for. Can't believe I've wasted 30 years of my life on this shit. I feel l like such a f***ing loser.

 

[ORRFForever]

57 goals in the regular season and completely invisible in the cup final.

He is who he is. He's not as good as his season stats but he's still one of the better Florida players.

 

[PaulD]

Reinhart had been ass all series

 

[Kingsfan1]

Stuart Skinner is the best goalie in the world

 

[trilobyte]

Panthers do love their turnovers

 

[MichaelFarrell]

Maurice is proven as a top tier NHL coach. If they fired him you'd see the answer to that by how quickly he'd be picked up.

I love Maurice. I think he’s a great coach. You blow a 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup finals, you’re fired.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Whoever runs Florida's power play should be fired.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

If the Canucks did this in the SCF, I would never watch another game for the rest of my life.

Also it's been back to back finals...

 

[Quinning]

Everything goes right into Skinner's logo

 

[Czechboy]

Game more than half over and Florida with 8 shots?

 

[SharksCyclops]

What kind of precautions does the league take to test for PED's when a game 7 of the Final happens?

I don't know much about how to take them and when they kick in, but what's to keep a team from juicing super hard the morning of a Game 7 or right before it, especially if it's the last game of the season?

 

[Rygu]

It can be the correct call and be ticky-tack. It's technically the right call, but it gave them no advantage.

You're telling me that they'd overturn that in OT? You can go sit on a railroad spike.

That part tells me everything

Good for you

 

[stealth1]

What happened to all the talk that Florida was going to come out like gangbusters due to how they finished last game.

 

[TimeZone]

This is really it. The noticeably better forechecking team flip-flopped.

There's a lot more to it than that, Florida can't even complete a simple tape to tape pass fight now.

Make no mistake, the pressure has 100% gotten to them.
