Stanley Cup Oilers vs Panthers

[Snagglefoot]

There are two games left in the Stanley Cup best of 7 race. As of yesterday morning, the Panthers were up 3 games to 0 against the Edmonton Oilers. How significant is that? In the history of the NHL, the lower team, only came back once after a 3-0 deficit to win the Stanley Cup.

So what happened yesterday? The Oilers came back and absolutely shellacked the Panthers 8-1, so now it’s 3 games to 1. If the Panthers win on Tuesday they win the Cup. If not, it goes to game 7. Even non-fans should tune in on Tuesday.

If not, it goes to Game 6.

If not, it goes to Game 6.

Whoops, yes. Thanks. Three games left, not two.

Panthers (Bobrovsky) had a bad game, and the Oilers battled hard as they didn't want to see the visiting team winning the cup on their home ice. This will probably end in Florida at game 5.

Yes, that would have resulted in the “ Edmonton Riot” much like the “ Vancouver Riot”.

Just never know what will happen. Messier did it in 94’ with the Rangers

Florida just wants to win at home. They were definitely off last night

It was like 2 different teams showed up last night. Interesting that the same thing happened in the NBA playoffs: Dallas came back and the Celtics were not even in game 4 after willing the first 3. I suspect both Florida and Boston will be celebrating eventually.

No joke. Celtics have been dominant even last round. The last game it's like they just let the alternates play. Maybe mind tricks are really a thing. They get so comfortable and just figure it's a sure thing and totally blow it.

Oilers making this a series now. Exciting game 5

The Canucks were a post away from taking game 7 to OT!
A few years later, Messier and Keenan came to the Canucks, forced Linden out of town, failed miserably, and disappeared.

Hoping the Oilers win tonight. The Calder Cup Finals are shaping up to be great t this year. Hershey Bears going for 3rd straight Calder Cup

3-0 Oilers end 2nd period.

Go Oilers! Beat those dirty Panthers!

Game 7 do or die Monday night. If I was Paul Maurice I’d be seriously concerned

Nothing better than an NHL Game 7!

Go Oilers, Go.
