And yet, after all this recency, the scoreboard is still 3-2 for Florida

No, it's 3-3. This one is over.

 

[Oilslick941611]

I love seeing Maurice, Bob and the cats puzzled like wait, yelling and looking around hoping goal reviews go their way.

HOW DOES IT FEEL

yeah, Maurices smirks in the first 5 games was annoying, and I love watching it get removed from his face. It's easy to be calm and funny and let the water fall down your back when you have a 3-0 lead. Now he's getting pissed almost like he has no answer. Smirk gone, love it.

 

[Lawzy]

Maurice better harness that energy he had after that overturned call on his players sometime soon. Incredible choke job going on right now.

 

[PaulD]

How can you be this close to the Cup and get out this way wtf

playing against McDavid
playing against a better team while running out of gas

 

[SillyRabbit]

Edmonton winning the Cup in Florida and skating around in front of their fans will be hilarious to watch.

Mind you, I'd expect most Florida fans to leave the stands by that point.

 

[LurkerMcgee]

Anything can happen in game 7 but I'd bet the house on the Oilers.

Prove it

 

[SI90]

Paul Maurice is a great coach and hockey lifer. So crazy he’s coached the most games without winning a cup and on the other bench you have a young Knoblach with not even a full season of NHL head coaching experience with a chance to win the cup.

Sports are amazing. Sometimes a bit cruel too. But hockey is the greatest!!

 

[T REX]

I mean Matthews had 70 too if you wanna do that in a ton less games

Thought you were a Toronto fan. Lots of harsh words for FL

Do you say the same about your team that crapped out yet again?

 

[BlueSeal]

Bob starts game 7. That much is a given

F-K no. They got his number, he's cooked. Run the backup and go right for the damn throat, like they should have been doing since Game 4.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Bedlam in Edmonton


Took such balls to challenge that. They were probably winning this game anyway but that f***ing broke Florida

Easy call given how bad the Panthers PP is.

Wild thing tho is, if that play happens towards the end of the period, where the line is more scuffed up and, to the naked eye, looks juuust a bit wider, it's probably called onside.

 

[SCP Guy]

What kind of sound does a panther make when chocking on a hair ball? Asking for a friend

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Florida is absolutely cooked

 

[KnightofBoston]

I need a concern-o-meter reading from panthers fans.

 

[archangel2]

Panthers are done, Oilers are bringing the cup home to Canada.

Jinx

 

[crowi]

I mean Matthews had 70 too if you wanna do that in a ton less games

Yeah, he had more effort in last game of regular season chasing that #70 than I've ever seen him come up with.

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

I envy them, for that 80s team alone. Completely stacked

As an oiler fan I was unlucky to be born too late to experience that. 06 was magical heart break

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Not much ad revenue when odd religious groups get Stanley Cup and Superbowl space.

He's been arrogant as f*** the entire run. All the bullshit got flipped and now there's some discomfort. I absolutely love it.

They shouldn’t even bother going period tbf

 

[Svencouver]

Stop. TGO will always and forever be TGO. Untouchable.

TGO>>>>>>mcdavid

TGO is the GOAT

Setting the assists record, winning the first Canadian cup in 30 years, coming back from 3-0 in the finals for the first time in ??? years, all with what is, by far, a way worse roster than Gretzky ever played on with one good D pairing and a horrendous goalie in net - if the Oilers win, I'm sorry, it's the most impressive cup win of all time. Not close.

 

[FinlandPanther]

I need a concern-o-meter reading from panthers fans.

A lot of us don’t even care anymore. Par the course.

 

[GrumpyKoala]

The oilers have taken control the longer the series goes these playoffs. This coaching staff gets love but not enough.

Highly confident in the oilers this series

Woodcroft was such a fraud.

 

[PaulD]

Maurice better harness that energy he had from the overturned call on his players sometime soon. Incredible choke job going on right now.

not a choke when the other team is superior....better question is how did Oil lose 3 straight

 

[thefutures]

Time for a couple trades zito

 

[kingsholygrail]

Losing the cup in 7 has never been done before by teams up 3-0 correct?

Red Wings lost it to the Maple Leafs after leading 3-0.
