Much of it was spent here debating whether the Tank worked or not.

And the other half, Adams has been lollygagging his way through an internal cap and a pleased-as-punch owner. 
 

EDM has been resilient and unkillable all…. Reinhart makes it 2 again.

Samson needed that after missing a wide open net in the first.

Ummm. So. Bennett. How much money do you want this offseason?

All.  Of.  It.

All the money.

Panthers putting on a clinic. However Edmonton is one of the few teams that can score in bunches. Not over yet. 

[DarthEbriate]

I think we can all agree to one thing though, the should have dressed Skinner. They don’t have enough Sabres.

But the Panthers are just the kind of team that can exploit a team that presses too hard.

Also dig the replay. Skates collide and McDavid going for a repair but Ekblad did one that no one does vs. McDavid. F(orget) the puck, take the body.

They also score in bunches like no one else.

They won when they put Skinner in the lineup. Ponder that one!

I really like the behind the goalie camera view. I wish broadcasts would do this more often during sustained pressure.

All about good team defense 😂

Reinhart feels the game.

Florida's PP is either meh or WOW!

[K012010]

Every time I watch the Panthers my anger at letting Sam go increases. 

[Wyldnwoody44]

Every time I watch the playoffs, a piece of me dies.

Tic tac toe on the Panther PP. Reinhart with the no-look backhand for the primary assist. Rodrigues winning PP o-zone draws. The Sabres had the basis of a team. 

[K012010]

Edmonton is unraveling like the Sabres after an opposing goalie is pulled.

Every time I watch the playoffs, an angel gets their wings.

[Pimlach]

That was close to an old fashion hockey fight.  

[Wyldnwoody44]

Can't wait to see what they try and call here.

A piece of you dies any way, no matter what you do.

The Oilers just learned they can't hang with the Cats with the fisticuffs. This could be an inflection point in the series.

[DarthEbriate]

It’s one of those things… the Oilers are trying to send a message. The Panthers received the message and escalated to a level the Oilers can’t handle. Panthers don’t care.

And the Sabres have maybe 3 guys capable of handling this type of game on their entire roster. 

[Indabuff]

Nice fisticuffs.  Love the tomfoolery.

Marchand is clearly feeling exceedingly confident.
