NHL (Hockey)

That play in 4x o/t was beautiful
-
Oilers fan here being that I’m Canadian. It’s going to be another long tough series me thinks. Skinner is going to have to be at his best.
-
Tough L, double OT sure the boys were so dusted. Couple close ones oilers could’ve put it away, but sick they were able to tie with like 17 seconds left. Great game to watch, on to the next one. Really Annoying see Marchand in a panthers jersey, and getting that short handed, plus game winner. Bruins never should let him go especially to the team that snuffed their great 23 season. Oilers in 6!!

I hate seeing people like Bennett and teams like Florida get rewarded for playing a style of hockey that seeks to deliberately injure opponents, and do a lot of flops in front of the net to get cheap goals. Marchand deserved the Smythe over him IMO based on especially his Finals performance.
A shame Bennett took out the Leafs starting goalie because even without him they were taken to 7 games. Feels like that dirty play that put a man in the hospital is too big of a reason for their Cup win.

That was a huge bummer … the better team won (as much as I hate to admit it).
-
Was hoping the oilers would win it for Canada and kinda don’t like Florida but they are really good. Hats off for back to back chips. Def huge bummer Hyman got hurt in the last series vs stars. Some costly turn overs, bad bounces etc lead to panthers scoring. Also Bobrovsky is an insane goalie, skinner had lots crazy stops too. Was some really good games though that double OT lose was a heart breaker. Marshland with another game winner, still can’t believe the bruins let him go for for next to nothing. I don’t think Florida made it to finals or wins without him this year
-
@meatmarketdenim1 Marchand was definitely key to their success no doubt. I wonder where he’ll end up next year.
-
I know it is much more nuanced than this, but Connor McDavid signing a two year extension with an AAV of $12.5Million shows just how committed this dude is to winning. I get that he is making ten fold with endorsements, but damn, not even asking for a raise. My respect level for him just went way up. But now I need to wait two more years until he joins the Maple Leafs.
-
He certainly could’ve held out and definitely gotten more. I truly hope Edmonton can put the missing pieces of the puzzle together for another run at the cup.
-
@Tago-Mago the game was on a bit too late to me… caught up on the condensed… to blow a 3 goal lead
️ Hopefully is addressed in the next few games. Oilers have so much potential, realistically they need to trade Connor to the Pens haha. I’m excited for this season! -
The most dangerous lead in hockey. Devastating opener for the Oilers as it was an amazing one for their provincial rivals.
3-0 for the season opener. Maybe playoffs this year
