Game Story:
The one thing that the OEG Inc. (hashtag#LetsGoOilers) can’t afford to do is repeat self-inflicted mistakes against a team like the Florida Panthers (hashtag#TimeToHunt) and yet they did so over and over again in Game 3. See the coverage here.

I have to say it now, stay with Alec Nava, Cooper Hopkins (who should be locked in for the rest of the series) and myself for Saturday, Game 4 coverage in our first-ever trio call of the Stanley Cup Finals! Alec has the Twitch side for us. I’ll carry Twitter/X Spaces and YouTube per usual just before the 8:15 p.m. EST puck drop as we all split a period of coverage (or more)!

Series Recap:
Game 1: FLA W 3-0: Sergei Bobrovsky activates his inner Hasek/Brodeur and records a 32-save shutout. Hyman, R-N-H, and Adam Henrique get flat out denied on breaks and in-close chances. Florida is outshot badly, and maybe played its worst game and still won convincingly. Verhaeghe backhand and Rodrigues off a unreal Bennett pass that goes through the legs of Nurse and beats the defense. Draisaitl misses a chance across the goal mouth. Eetu Luostarinen (EN). What do you say if you are Kris Knoblauch? Edmonton played a solid game. Can they repeat the performance and win handily? Stuart Skinner (L, 15 Saves). Tell the story of his blades from NHL Network recap, tendency to get low, what the Bruins tried to do.
Game 2:FLA W 4-1: Draisaitl and Nurse, stupid plays by EDM, after surviving the first. This was an effort that can be seen through the rearview mirror and I’m not sure that the picture can be depicted as anything else than reality. Mikkola GP 97 Playoff Games 2G 4A vs. 3G in EDM. EDM: Ekholm. Niko Mikkola, Rodrigues (2) and Ekblad. Very nasty game, Barkov and Nurse didn’t return. Luostarinen and Ekblad did. Does Draisaitl get suspended? Sergei Bobrovsky (W, 18 Saves) Skinner (L, 24 Saves) not his fault. Foegele knee on knee. Stenlund, speared, then hit by Desharnais. Of note no suspensions, Florida plane delayed by flooding heading into tonight. I want to see what Barkov does. It’s a win now or nothing for EDM.
