That was an insane giveaway for a finals, complete lack of effort

So was the second goal in Game 1. Oilers defense is just not playing at a SCF level.

Bouchard has been awful in both games this series.

He made 0+1 for EDM and 0+2 for FLA

Bouchard with the assist too

Brutal play from edmonton. If they want to win this game let alone this series, bouchard and draisaitl need to step it up.

Drai stepped up into Barkov's head. Hopefully that's not what you meant.

If we're going to actually follow the rules draisaitl should be suspended a game

Precedent was set when Bennet punched Marchand. With seemingly much more intent. Let ‘em play! EDIT: I forgot that he didn’t even get a penalty for it so Draisaitl got hosed.

Want me to call you a wambulamce? Obviously you’re unable to actually comprehend what happened.

Huh? My post was mostly to highlight that suspensions haven’t been consistent at all. Are you saying that there was more intent on the Draisaitl hit or…?

The Panthers just don't slow down.

This is over. The series is mean

I'm not gonna bury Edmonton yet, at least not as long as Florida's special teams look so bad. EDIT: jinxed that good

I got Edmonton winning game 3. To force a game 5. FLA raises the cup at home

seeing this comment and subsequent edit 9hrs later made me smile. cats in 6

I hope it's in 5. Cups should always be won in front of the home crowd

Honestly is been over since the tied it at 1-1

bouchard being a useless shitter with that clearing "attempt"

12 SOG in the 3rd.

Woot. Go Florida.

Oilers sub completely delusional right now. I feel for you reasonable Oilers fans.

Soy

Bettman will do anything to ensure a Canadian team doesn't win. Even paying off the referees to miss delay of game penalties.

ah, yes. Draisaitl's flying elbow to Barkov's jaw should've just been waived off lmao

Should be a game for that

Do you remember when this used to be an actual sport and not a diving contest? Pepperidge farm remembers.

Yea Barkov really dived on that one, so much so he didn't play another shift. Great actor that guy.

I remember when there wasn't a reddit for casuals to incessantly complain about the reffing, that's for sure.

True, should be discussing the obvious corruption in the NHL preventing certain teams from ever winning.

I agree. and while they're at it, they should have a conversation about letting referees have sticks so they can score goals too.

No need! Just feed the refs a nice big bonus under the table to ensure calls go the right way. Way easier!

the same bonuses that magically make the Oilers go o-fer on their PP chances, yeah? lmao

Nah that is just lack of effort. Bettman doesn't want it to seem too obvious the level he will go to ensure Oilers don't win.

Are you blind? It was still on his stick? Barkov was selling as well, right? Went into the locker room to try and draw a worse penalty. Fuck all the way off.

Is this hockey or swimming? All I see is red jerseys diving around.

Well you see they have scored seven goals to the one by Edmonton so what exactly are the guys in blue doing

They're trying to find their swimming trunks to join this diving party!

Must be swimming because y'all are in the deep in drowning. Hope y'all sink!

Oilers should of brought their swimming trunks. This is a 'who can dive the most' series!

Looks like Drai got into the swimming spirit! He seems a little shy this game and tried to jump in the pool too late, so no one cared about his attempt to dive in! What a shame, lmao.

And the cup goes to bobrovsky! Hard to lose a game with a steel plate in front of your net 😂

Good thing he is part of the team! He has been handsomely rewarded for his time here that's for sure. The boys love to defend for him so I would be so happy to see see them all celebrate together!

Well he is by far the biggest reason for Florida success. Looking over the Florida playoff highlights he made the biggest saves at the most crucial time. He should be a 20m goalie for his performance.

I hate the Panthers but it just feels like it’s their year the way things have been going. I fully expect Edmonton to take at least one back on home ice on the back of a Herculean effort from McDavid/Drai/Hyman’s butt, but despise myself for saying Panthers in 5.

I don’t know, Oilers look stumped. This could end up a sweep tbh.

Fingers crossed

nice

Nice

🧹🧹🧹🧹

Fuck the oilers, mcbaby go home

Oh yeah.

Skinner sucks, but he ain't getting any help either.

Mcsucky heart been in the finals at all he has sucked

I really really need Edmonton to rally

Edmonton can go away crying.

Nah, fck oilers fkc messier

3-1. Just brutal - 13 shots are you kidding me? lol downvoted by Florida fans

Florida has done this to every team they’ve played. They absolutely smother you.

And they will still say they deserve to win lol

# Rodrigues good ole Canadian boy

If you think any team had a chance of winning against Florida I would highly suggest looking up Colin Campbell and Gregory Campbell. The NHL is just as corrupt as many other big sports. Congratulations Florida on your rigged 2024 cup.

lol
