Stanley Cup Finals: (WC2) Florida Panthers vs (P1) Vegas Golden Knights | VGK Lead 3-1

[ricky0034]

Florida cools down in the long break and Vegas wins fairly easily in 6

I have been picking Vegas since the playoffs started and with them getting Stone back, they were going to be an elite team.....Florida will be their hardest battle but I will go with Vegas in 6-7 games.

If Karlsson and Pietrangelo can contain Tkachuk, Florida stands no chance. I don’t see Barkov kicking it up into high gear, he’s been pretty underwhelming. Florida is here because of two players, Bob and Tkachuk.

 

[um]

I can see Bob slowing down a bit after a long break. That is exactly what happened to Vegas and MAF before the 2018 finals.

Vegas in 6, should be a good one.

Barkov obviously will need some respect put on his name, he is going to control the NZ and try to shut down Eichels line.

Whoever Shaq/Ernie/Kenny/Barkley cheering for

Wanted Vegas/Tampa series going in to the playoffs if Islanders did not make it all the way. Close enough.

 

[RebuildinVan]

Had almost no interest in the two conference finals but think this final can provide good entertainment value

 

[BB79]

Let's go cats! Panthers in 6

 

[Paradise Circus]

scoring depth on Florida wins this in 7

This is a tough one to predict...Vegas on paper should win but Florida in these playoffs has just been clinical. If Bobrovsky is going, Vegas will lose imo.

Will be a very low scoring series I suspect, possibly similar to the Carolina-Florida series. Lots of OT....Florida in 6.

Glad we will see a new Cup winner. So many good stories

The team Dale Tallon helped build vs the team Dale Tallon helped build.

Barkov obviously will need some respect put on his name, he is going to control the NZ and try to shut down Eichels line.

Eventually Barkov will have to step up offensively. Tkachuk is carrying the entire team offensively. And Vegas are going to be all over him. Vegas is a 4 line team, can’t say the same for Florida.

What, no inclusion of NYI in ESPN's montage. Par for the course.

There's only one way I watch a 6-0 game, even in the playoffs.

Wanted a game 7, for the love of hockey.

VGK wanted it more; fend off history. It sounds cliched, but it's true. They sagged a bit the past two, Dallas was 'better;' it was enough to win. Tonight Dallas sagged and VGk Carpe Dieme'd. Hence the score disparity.

 

[Snippit]

Vegas is one of the deepest teams I have ever seen at F and D. I think this will get them over the line.

Panthers were favourite on here against Carolina iirc

The fans of one team are going to get their feelings hurt very badly in the coming weeks.

With ABC/ESPN getting the NBA Finals and TNT getting the Stanley Cup Finals, I wish they'd replace the entire TNT NHL panel with the NBA's. With the Heat going to the Finals, I'm sure the guys are going to be in the area anyways.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Cinderella teams usually come up short. Vegas in six.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Vegas is one of the deepest teams I have ever seen at F and D. I think this will get them over the line.

On paper, Boston is a better team in all positions than Vegas and Florida handled them no problem.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Pretty even on paper, slight edge to Vegas
As always it will end up being a goaltending battle.

 

[ChanceVegas]

Florida Panthers are 0-4-1 all time in T-mobile Arena. BRB, Gotta get the rum ready for Jobu now.

Probably which ever of the Leafs or Oilers who don't get to say "at least we lost to the Stanley Cup Champions"

 

[Hockeysawks]

I have no idea how to find where you all vote.

Vegas in 5 it would be a sweep but Bob steals one. Panthers have been blahh all playoffs, what a lame finals this will be
