Oilers can't beat the Panthers within the rules, so they go head hunting….and still lose.
It's not over, though I saw the stat that 91% of teams that have gone up 2-0 have won the Stanley Cup. It is very likely do or die for Edmonton in game 3 since only the 1942 Maple Leafs have come back down 0-3 to win the Stanley cup so that 9% chance probably drops to <1% with a loss
Regarding Barkov, I wouldn't suspend Draisaital that still looked like a hockey hit albeit a high one. There didn't appear to be injuring intent on it so the penalty was fine, but no suspension.
Cats gave their eyes on the prize and not letting their emotions get away from them.

There’s always next year boys. 🎉🎉🎉
The additional views of that elbow shows how bad it really was. Drai is a good 4-6 inches off the ground to deliver one to the face.
Bouchard was awful. That pizza delivery give away for the winner was as brutal as it gets.
Lets Go Panthers🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀
Its over now.
No mention of Tkchuck’s shameless embellishment that drew a penalty in the last minutes of the 1st period, Bouchard’s glove/ stick didn’t even touch him.
Not to mention getting away with a metric ton of slashes/ holds at any given moment. Specifically on the mcdavid breakaway. The refs were ignorant on a large portion of the game, calling soft calls (both ways) and missing blatant transgressions as well.
Agreed the panthers objectively outplayed the oilers for the whole game, but it is ignorant to not see how getting away with nearly every opportunity to get the oilers a penalty while not getting called for some egregious actions skewed the outcome of this game. 45 minutes to 12 is not a balanced representation of what happened during that game.
NHL=BUFFOONERY AT IT'S FINEST
I always thought that if you leave your feet and lead with the elbow to the head, it was a major penalty. Guess I was wrong.
Oilers continue to prove they're the dirtiest team in the NHL with the constant cheapshots.
Draisaitl hit is a game and we all know it.
So Oilers no comeback to tie the series?
The fat lady hasn't sung yet, and this is coming from a guy who lives among some the most obnoxious Oiler fans alive.
Oilers should be able to win 4/5 or 4/4. Panthers, show no mercy!
Good luck to Draisaitl if he's not suspended for Game 3. We'll see how you feel when you are on your back when facing the bell for that cheap shot.
Don't miss this year's international ice hockey glove sniffers convention – it should be remarkable if not downright mythical!
After watching the two games for the oilers. I think the oilers are in their heads a lot, powerplay looks like shit now, mcdavid is going solo a lot of the time going 1 on 4. Think panthers will win unless the oilers start playing as a team again lol
The Oilers barely had any shots for the first 2 periods, it was so bad. WTF is happening! Where is McDavid and Draisiral.?
Glove sniffing contest. LOL!
Let’s Go Panthers! 14 down TWO to go!
If it was Dallas vs. Florida, this series would probably go at least 6 for sure. 19 of the last 20 series Dallas was in, went at least 6 games. The last time Dallas lost a series in less than 6 games was back in 2006
people said that about boston’s as well 2011 down 2-0
Glove sniffing….😂…that’s great
So with discipline not coming… now the question is… run up the score in game three and get even in game four… or clip Draisaitl and / or Connor asap?
If you're the Oilers coach, do you hide both of them once Florida is up three goals?
What bothered me was the guy attacked upwards towards the head with skates off the ice. He launched. That’s something the league has to punish for. It has to stop.
I honestly feel like this could still be a close series if Drai can injure 6 or 7 more Florida players
Oilers just need a few more 1st overall picks and theyll have a solid shot at the cup
I think Panthers in 6 is a reasonable prediction at this point but if Edmonton does not Win game 3 they will be totally out of this series. The Penguins and Bruins both came back from an 0-2 start in the Stanley Cup so I won't say the Oilers are totally out of it just yet. They are on life support though because no team wants to start that way. Game 1 was a weird game that could have gone either way but the Hockey Gods gave it to Florida. I mean I can't believe how many times the Oilers shot at the Net and that Bob was able to stop all of those pucks. If Edmonton does make a comeback and some how upsets Florida I'd imagine it probably will be in 7 games. I just can't see that happening but you never know because it has been done twice in the 2000s era.
Draisaitl must have called Trouba to get some pointers on how to do the flying elbow
To have so much written down for a series that's already determined
When was the last time you've seen the Stanley cup unveiled infront of the players?
For the possible penalty on delay game he actually double tap puck. it was all good imo
