Happy Kypday!
Someone’s gotta count the amount of times Garry says “you know 😂
I'm so impressed with how "Stuey" Skinner has shown accountability and his response to a loss then how he demanded the net back… I'd say Skinner, Binner (Jordan Binnington) and probably "Blackie" (Mackenzie Blackwood) are the 3 goalies for the Canada "four nations cup", proven they can make big saves at meaningful times. Good composure!! Don't forget the legendary Flower (Marc Andre-Fleury) if he's still playing .. don't count him out .. then you got upcoming guys like Devon Levi (Sabres), Montembault (Canadiens), Brossoit (Jets), and of course the tandem Adin Hill/Thompson (VGK)
Barkov is like a tank out there, you cannot knock him over… he goes for hits and protects himself, I think how Barky handles McJesus/King Leon is how this series will go. As well, if they get "Bob'd" (goalied) or if they can break through like Boston did when they were rusty in Game 1 of the Bruins @ Panthers. This playoffs is so close to call, any team can win… I think the most pivotal game will be Game 5, as it has been so often… finally, Kane can get a little wild out there… if they goad-him for PIM's it could hurt the Oilers. I loved how he played in San Jose with edge, but sometimes he'd go AWOL mission commander and smoke guys, or fight at inopportune times taking a penalty. Florida seems to be buttoned-up as far as taking penalties. I think this series is won by special teams, and attrition (injuries to key guys). Florida can play a punishing style, but most of their guys are healthy this time as you hockey beauties have pointed out!
So Floridian all the way, right? 😂😂😂 These Canadian clowns. Wow
Happy Birthday Kyper!
Gary had very well thought opinions. The probabilities can be counted by analysts, but lets hope that game suprises.
I'm starting to get the feeling that Florida is either going to sweep or win in 5 or Edmonton wins outright. This Florida hype train is getting wild. Either it's real and this is over quick or some of it's inflated (cough cough Dallas depth) and I think the Oil gets it done.
It reminds me of the last series when the hockey world shared their accolades about the 'depth' of the Stars. At the end of the day, the 'depth' is about not having star players. I guess this series will be a very tight one and will boil down to who is hungrier and passionate about winning the cup. On this notion, I take the Oilers in 6.
Kane and Perry neautrilze bennett and tkachuk
Lol game is played on the ice , not in front of a microphone. Lol all these mic heads would be hall of famers , gm's or coaches, opinions are like assholes everyonehas one.
Florida should win yes, but man Garry Galley is a terrible listen.
Anyone betting against McDavid and his childhood dream get ready to pick up your jaw
Can't believe how pro Cats these guys are. The same was said about Dallas. If the Oil plays their game…they win.
Double shift McDavid and Leon with the last change Florida will try to check them in the neutral zone. I would play McDavid as much as possible to get away from matchups.
They can put holoway on Bennett too.I can see them making thst match up.
Oilers in 6
Keep up the good work channeling Kyper
Oil in 6 💙🧡💙
The oil match up well against florida oil in 6. Florida is the only thing standing between mcdavid and his first cup, I almost feel sorry for florida. Almost.😊
Eastern time zone turnip hour. Stay up past midnight & watch some games
