NHL 2023-2024

Florida have been impressively composed. They are content watching Edmonton skate in circles and cycle through their automatisms; Bobrovsky has been sharp the whole time. Florida hasn't even needed to hit them and Edmonton hasn't seem inclined to try anything physical either. I suspect rather that adjust strategy, they will continue take their chances in much the same way that they have.

EDM is cooked. As a Rangers fan, I too would have wanted to face EDM.

True, it has not been a very physical series. And yeah, Florida never panics, they seem to continue to play the same way,

Not sure Dallas could have done any better against the Panthers...

Top teams on both sides defeated

 

[technomancer]

I'm looking forward to listening to ABC's announcers talk about Edmonton while the Panthers skate the cup...

I didn't want to predict a sweep but I am really not surprised by how this is playing out.

I think they would have, more versatile team and less predictable.

Could it be? The legend of the Reverse Sweep™

(a man can dream.)

8-1 is fucking hilarious. Having said that, while both teams have 12+ goals against each other, FLA leads 3-1. Says a lot, imo. Not super optimistic honestly but still, the dream doesn't die - Oilers in 7.

 

[Moongrum]

That was kind of a fun game
3rd period was a bit boring, but it was funny seeing Oilers beat up on the Panthers after every time they took a shot

 

[JD27]

A blowout like that was probably the worst thing that could happen. I’m guessing the next game is Florida is going to be very tight defensively.

 

[phillybhatesme]

How nice of Edmonton to let Florida win on home ice.

 

[TheDandy]

Don’t care what happens after this, that game was pornographic. A game with a Brown-Janmark goal AND a Nurse goal may be one of the signs of the apocalypse. Even if we lose next game I’m glad it wasn’t a sweep and I’m proud of how far we’ve come!

 

[M3CHK1LLA]

Now that's Oilers Dallas remembers...

 

[Crash Dandicoot]

REVERSE SWEEP, COULD IT BE?!

Man, I am so stoked. No matter how it ends, incredibly proud of this team. Bouchard breaking records, McDavid breaking records, what a fantastic post-season.

To reiterate: the dream does not die, Oilers in 7

Wish I had watched it! Outside of the previous game, I totally thought the Oilers were cooked. Looking forward to the next game

I only caught some of the 1st and the last couple minutes of the game, hell of a save by Tkachuk.

 

[TheDandy]

Flabbergasted beyond words and erect to a degree most only dream of. That was a hell of a game, I have genuine hope in my heart.

Also Bill Zito throwing that water bottle made my week

 

[phillybhatesme]

Awesome game. Fuck FLA. Go Oil.

Definitely, nice to see those diving skills put to good use

I'll even concede that was a ridiculous save. Relieved that it was swiftly corrected

Dubois to Washington, in exchange for Kuemper to LA; makes good sense to me.

Markstrom to NJ.
