I was assured that the Panthers wanted to win this at home and intentionally lost game four.

This has the potential to be either a legendary comeback OR an epic collapse…
McDavid absolutely has to win the Conn Smythe no matter who wins the Stanley Cup
I noticed guys were falling all over the ice in the 3rd period and the puck was skipping…Ice seemed horrible…I am sure Florida would not be too upset about that.
Am I the only one who thinks Barkov could’ve and should’ve caught or at least pressured Brown on the shorthanded goal? This from an Oilers fan
Draisaitl has been the biggest disappointment of this Final. 0 G, 2 A, 2 Pts, 0 +/-, 13 shots
Every team would like to clinch in front of their home fans, lets just be real, maybe Florida, up 3-0, took their foot off the gas a bit, and the Oilers, desperate to avoid the sweep and with nothing to lose, played that way,
Now coming home just down one, things are interesting.
To me Bobrovski has always been a feast or famine type of goalie, when he's on, he's the best when he's not…not so much.
As always, I'm hoping for a game seven.
Let’s hope the panthers are going to throw the next game away to Edmonton as they want to win game 7 at home
took two seconds to agree. super fun stanley cup fun story line. butt clenching for oilers and panthers fans.
Oilers first ever team in the Stanley Cup Final to win game 5 on the road after being down 3-0.
Especially after what the Oilers did going from 31st, on January 1st, to hear, would be one of the most insane hockey stories of all time if they pull off the reverse sweep.
Florida Panthers: Can we pretend that this is football and just refuse penalties for the rest of the series?
Connor brown WORKING for the contract next season, and DAMN he's deserving it. Maybe not 5 Mil but that work ethic, wow!
As an Oiler I can barely speak after this game. What a series and what a comeback by the Oilers. Lets gooo
Tonights game melted the minds of the Conspiracy Theory bottom feeders.
Loved that you pointed out Tkchuck being very vocal abt trying to get a penalty (throwing a temper tantrum) on us as if he wasnt the one embelishing and making a few questionable plays besides bennett, I think he forgot hes a player and not a refree, He was slapping his stick at the refs feet and then began yelling in the refs face for a call. Tkchuck has solidified his spot in the dirtiest players list and now I could see him playing some sort of victim in a holloywood movie. Its seems that when the refs call a fair game (penaltys for both sides on questionable calls) Oilers start to shine. Hate the theatrics from Tkchuck, just play damn hockey. Hes one of the dirtiest players besides Bennett and has regular temper tantrums when the refs arent on there knees for him. Talk shit get hit (we need Kassian back to ragdoll him again)
A Canadian who doesn't have a dog in this fight. Really?
So are we pushing the needle back again. Shannon you were wrong about both. Just admit the Oilers are winning the whole damn thing
Good news for FL Panthers fans. Coach Maurice finally realized he made a huge mistake changing the lines up. Evan Rodrigues on the top line was a failure during the regular season and an epic failure during the Cups Finals. Excuse to change what's not broken? He wants to get Verhaege going. As soon as the change was made, Panthers scored. 3-1 to finish this game with him on the 2nd line. First two games, Panthers 7-1. Game 3 they just survived. McDavid all of a sudden came alive. 2 assists. Then it was game 4 and it was the Conor McDavid show. So 4-3 Panthers, 8-1 Edmonton. This game 3-0 before the change back Oilers. Total with that line up 14-4 Edmonton. With those two lines corrected and previous game, Panthers 14-3. If I did the math right. That's the difference in the series right now. Now for step 2 Maurice. Stop it with Okposo! He is dunnnnnnnnnnnn. Enough with the allegiance to him or whatever it is. He can put on a suit and sit behind the bench. He can't get in position for defense because he's too slow. He can't play defense because he can't get into position because he is too slow. Every time that line ices the puck McDavid's line comes on and its please don't score a goal or take another penalty. Lorentz has goals. Okposo doesn't. Lomberg has speed. Okposo doesn't. He's on the "energy" line. Its more like suck the life out of you line. Its not a game changer, but taking penalties, is now a game destroyer. No more please.
Bobrosky looks ordinary because Edmonton figured out they might score if they don’t shoot directly into his chest. Except maybe for that Ekholm goal . Mcdavid snuck one in because everyone in the world thought he was going to pass and that’s why he tries those bad angle shots every once in a while..
I was so happy seeing all the panthers fans stand up in excitement when tkchuck made that empty net save just to sit back down a second later in disappointment😂😂
Now that I have hope and watched this video, the oilers are fucked.
When the oilers lose 3 straight games, they usually bounce back with a winning streak. They did it all season, and are doing it again in the playoffs.
I love internet conspiracy theories. They change every hour…lol
Barkov hasn't been the same since that elbow to his head. Too bad his team isn't rallying around him. That hit should have sent the Panthers into a rage but seems like they just lost all their will to play.
florida was nervous tonight, they could hear the footsteps.
As much as I’m pulling for Florida to win, getting reverse swept after such a dominant first three games would easily go down as the single biggest collapse in all of professional sports. We could be witnessing sports history in the making.
Will always give credit where it's due, and Skinner has been a serious pillar for this team to lean on in the past two games. He seems to be having fun with the moment, as he's caught doing a dance to stadium music during the game.
I think Skinner is in a good place mentally. He's relaxed, and he's playing better because of it. I'm thinking he was just either too uptight, or too anxious or something, in the earlier games. He always plays well, when he's loose, like most athletes too.
If there is any hope in forcing 7, Skinner is going to have to be a star of the game. I think FLA empties the tank to win this in 6, and it's going to be the fight of their lives for EDM.
If EDM wins G6, I think they take the cup from FLA. The pressure of coughing up a 3-0 series lead, will be too much for even them, a team that was here last year.
McDavid said it openly, "I'm looking forward to people doubting us again. We're good with our backs against the wall." He knows the team better than anyone. I think he may be on to something.
We'll see what happens come Friday night. 🍻👋
Panthers fan here. Have no idea where the sense of urgency was the last 5 periods of hockey, then they just decide they want to play well when the STANLEY CUP is in the building. I could rattle off names of players that look horrible rn but the list is too long. All that being said, I still don’t understand how Edmonton fans can be so smug when they’re still down by a game. I am nervous though, GO PANTHERS?! 😅
edm is for sure winning this series now . To much momentum on edms side and McDavid is activated. Really wanna see this for fla they are so close sigh .
If Panthers lose game 6 then man. I don’t see the Oilers losing. Sucks cuz I want to see Panthers win their first cup
