Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Heart wants to say Oilers in 7, but brain says Panthers in 6.

And no Saturday game until 6/14?
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Oilers take Game 1 in overtime. I think Draisaitl and McDavid have just decided they're not going to let another win slip away.
And I think we all left Evander Kane for dead but he's been a beast.

A healthy Draisaitl may end up being the difference here. We'll see.
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Feels different then last year for sure. I did not think they had a chance due to Skinner but they look real good at home.

Panthers take game 2 in 2OT. Marchand nets a softie between the wickets on Skinner from up the gut on a partial breakaway. 2nd goal of the game from inside up the middle for Marchy.
What a series!!!

Cant complain about this final,both teams flyin out there.
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
And just like that the Oilers look like they’re choking again. It’s the Bennett vs Perry show on the scoreboard.

Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
What a shit show lol
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
So Oil staying with Skinner in goal tonight.
Jeff Skinner replaces Arvi, Stecher replacing pylon Klingberg.
I still don't know how they rebound after that joke of a last game. Just as embarrassing as the Leafs losses.
What yall think does the Oil still have a legit shot?

Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Almost every time I've counted a team out based on the previous game, they've come out flying and won. Skinner is a coin toss in net every night, so he could have a shutout tonight. I can't see the Oilers rolling over down just 2-1, so I see them coming out flying tonight. I'm saying Oilers 4-2 with an empty netter.BLUE wrote: Thu Jun 12, 2025 1:35 pm So Oil staying with Skinner in goal tonight.

Welp seen this before 3-0 Cats after 1.
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Tied up. This series is nuts. Refs have been awful.

Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Agreed consistency would be nice
Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Well gotta give credit to the Oil, I thought they were done for after that joke of a 1rst period. Pickard looked better than Skinner, would think hes in the net from now on.

Re: Meet the new Cup Final. Same as the old Cup Final.
Outside of game 3 this has been a fairly even matchup. I too thought the Oil were done in the game and the series after the 1st period....but somehow they managed to get it done.
Hopefully we get some more hockey news with the draft and Free Agency in a few weeks.
