Think we're going to see a hold McDavid fest tonight. Panthers don't have an answer for McDavid so they will hook and hold him all night and hope the refs put the whistles away for game 7. I don't think it will matter.
I worry about this too. I am a ball of worrying right now. I'm worried that Bobrovsky could play like he did in game 1. I worry about basically everything that could go wrong actually going wrong. I worry that the Panthers, with their backs up against the wall, might come out better than they have this series. I'm worry about so many things, you'd think I hadn't been through this same thing before. I think losing in 2006 damaged me for life.

Go Oilers!

I'd love to say that I have a lot of confidence, but I just don't. This is the first game where the Oilers can win the cup, which brings a whole other level of stress, emotions and pressure. Florida has dealt with all this stuff for 3 games already, and will be used to it. Experience matters. Combine that with the % chance of winning 4 in a row in the cup final, and I don't have good feelings about our chances at all.

Honestly, if you said you were confident I think I would have been worried! :)

These hours pregame are insanely difficult. Watching all these videos and reading so many personal stories about what this team means to people, and how anxious we are for this game, I'm alternating between tears of joy/pride and trying not to puke.

Big day for a big game. Been having the butterflies and jitters all day. Hoping for a big win tonight, but win or lose proud of these guys. I got to experience the 2006 run and this just feels different. I'm so much more invested with the individuals on this team than I was back then. Nothing would make me happier today than getting to see them rewarded for their never say die attitude.
