McDavid and Draisital are just cheatcodes

Two superstars getting it done when it matters most.

The loss of Hyman does hurt Edmonton but that will now result in more playing time for Perry and Skinner. I’d make the Panthers a slight favorite but now the Oilers have the experience and know what it’ll take to beat Florida and win it all. I wouldn’t bet money on this final either way. Gonna be tight and could go either way.

And McJesus just puts a dagger in their heart. Even before that goal I was thinking the Stars are having to expend SO much energy just to make up the two goal deficit. Against a team like the Oilers that makes you very susceptible to odd man rushes against. And here we are.

If Skinner and the Oilers come through this year that will make it a well established pattern that other GMs will find impossible to ignore anymore. Lol

Skinner playing in the finals IS something a lot of people predicated once we let him loose and he signed with the Oilers. He has to be pumped.

Skinner is now going to play hockey in June thanks to Hyman being done. lol true don’t know what I was thinking there

I believe DeBoer has never lost a game 7 before. Thought I’ve seen that stat. He’s about to.

Florida is just a stacked team top to bottom. Gonna be a great rematch of last years final between Oilers and Panthers.

Canes are cooked. Florida headed to the finals for the third straight year. Amazing turnaround for that franchise.

McCabe is generally trailing around cluelessly on most big Leafs goals against this series I’ve noticed. Not surprising

Happy for Scott Arniel. Finally getting his chance to show what he can do as a head coach.

I’m guessing a minimum of another 3-4 years

lol Sabres are just turnover machines in their own end consistently.

Everything this failed franchise does is predictable. Dozens playing good and becoming recharged for Ottawa, meanwhile Norris, with an oft-injured reputation can’t get on the ice for us due to, shocker, being again injured.
