@@pilotamurorei tbf, if markstrom didn't fall off a cliff then that team could've made a big run in 2022. Bennett was also not on the team at that point
Florida Panthers aren't that good. They needed so much help to get past Boston with all those Goals taken away from Boston but not Florida. Panthers also needed help to get past New York Rangers and that's terrible. Everyone says Florida Panthers are good but yet they don't see all the help from the referees/linesmen all postseason. I would love to actually see Florida Panthers actually win a game without the referees/linesmen helping them. Which I already know it won't happen. NHL Hall of Fame could actually banned the Florida Panthers for fixing games in postseason. We actually haven't seen a good Stanley Cup Finals in a couple of years which is pathetic.
Now people can clown on Perry all they want, but making 4 finals out of 5 years is insane. Lots of players don’t even get to play in a final and he already has his cup ring, so I think he is just fine
As a Panthers fan, I love how Okposo singlehandedly destroys people in the boards. His hits are like getting run over by a truck, or a bus, of a fucking train.
Edmonton fan and so disappointed. Not that theyre losing so much as i thought the series would be more entertaining. Ughh. Kudos to Florida… incredible team
I keep bringing up the fact that Vancouver had multiple catastrophic injuries and the Oilers still almost lost, and Edmonton fans cope by saying they were the better team. 💀
@@Wayf4rer You Canucks fans have been coping for like a month. Oilers vs Canucks was a physical series. Your Canucks had the more injury prone players while the Oilers have been a physically resilient team all season and playoffs. Boeser is an injury prone player and it was only a matter of time before he was out. Same with Pettersson(who was already fighting an injury)Canucks were winning every game in the playoffs by one goal. It was not sustainable. Seethe and enjoy the 54th year of your cup drought.
@@Wayf4rerJesus Christ talk about cope 😭 you had like a 100 comments about the Oilers and how bad they are in the past couple days. Give it a break keyboard warrior
To be honest I wouldn’t blame them to much, cause like you said Eck Panthers are just the ultimate playoff team. Honestly would love to see a series between this panthers team and last years Knights. Or panthers vs 2022 avs
That stat about 54 seconds of O-zone puck possession yielding three goals encapsulates how I saw game 3. The Oilers were trying so hard to make the perfect play to set up a scoring chance (lots of passes, lots of skating around the zone), then the Panthers would get the puck, make one pass and it would end up in the back of the net.
As McDavid said Oilers will need to play a little less structured and as the media and internet been saying shoot more often including McDavid himself.
Maybe speaks a lot about the difference in defense on both sides. Edm defense is way easier to play against compared to Florida. And not just the defensemen, also the forwards in the d-zone
Oilers fsns are trying to figure out how to talk about this series without using any of the stuff they claimed was "just excuses" from leafs fans last year.
If you are a leaf fan, I would be more worried about how the Panthers are playing then the Oilers... If the Panthers play like this for the next few seasons, the Leafs will not even sniff the conference finals with Matthews.
So you said it was over after game 2 and it was really over after game 3. What do you say now? Are you enjoying the Stanly Cup finals a little better now?
When Keefe said teams prepare for the leafs to beat themselves is exactly what the Oilers do. Dumb idiotic mistakes that lead to goals. Not taking anything away from Florida but when dumb things like Skinner playing that puck, nurse serving up a pizza/ not having his stick on the ice, McDavid lazy back check leaving him in no man’s land ect. Oilers beat themselves more than other teams beating them.
all goalies make mistakes. The one thing about this era of goaltending is that there arent 6 generational goaltenders playing at the same time. Comparing this era to say the late 90s, when you had Roy, Belfour, Hasek, Brodeur, etc all at the same time has made most older hockey fans blaming goalies when its the shit team in front of them. Like seriously, Darnell, the basketball american, has a -15 or -16? Skinner is a decent goaltender, not great, but decent. Kuemper wasnt all that great for the avs in 2022, he got hurt out got outplayed HARD in those playoffs by Frankie (Frankie was CLEARLY the better goaltender that year). The avs were able to overcome decent goaltending from kuemper and win a cup. The avs had monsters on defense, who PROTECTED their goalie. Look at the Cats this year. they protect Bob, and hes also able to stand on his head. Skinner hasnt developed that ability to steal games, so the defense needs to protect the hell out of him. They DONT.
The whole 'they beat themselves' thing is a meme. All teams make mistakes, it's just that one team has an actual goaltender and defenseman one doesn't. Dallas beat themselves, Edmonton is just getting destroyed by a far superior team.
Yeah and thats Florida exposing their weaknesses/faults… if both teams are playing phenomenal then they’ll take it to OT and consistently check each other. But here it’s clear that FL is holding themselves together a lot better than Edmonton and on top of that FL is taking full advantage of all mistakes they make AKA: they’re just a better team plain and simple
Garbage series. Florida outclasses EDM. Agree it would be nice to have an exciting and close series of two powerhouses. This was not that. EDM doesn’t look like it even belongs in the finals at all. - an embarrassed oilers fan
Oilers have outplayed Florida by a wide margin in games 1 and 3 but just haven't capitalized on their chances. All the stats prove this. The mental errors and breakdowns that gift the opponent goals doesn't erase this fact.
The replies are why I actually love this series as the others mentioned on paper the oilers (hot garbage they maybe) are statically better however Florida is 1 team 4 lines 3 def pairs and a goalie that work as 1. Plus I love the Florida shouldn't exist and Florida is gonna move rants.
It's almost unfair how good Florida goalie is. It's incredible what he's done but honestly he's a big part of why this series is so disappointing in a sense. There's this obvious sense that the Oilers have to take some big risks to even get a tiny chance of getting something past him. The Panthers hunker down, pressure, and then counter-attack. They can play like this cuz they have the rock solid assurance that their goalie is a miracle worker who has their back. Skinner.. just ain't on the same level.

@@Michael-hq1iq The oilers are paying DEI Nurse as much as McDavid almost so what do you expect from the oilers? The curse is they don't know how to build or manage a team since 1991
Still greatful for Dallas whipping Colorado and Vegas this season, although to be fair Dallas did them a huge favor as McDavid and Co looked a different beast in 2024.
Panthers fan here. After getting smashed in game 4 by a score of 8-1 the Panthers looked exhausted and Edmonton looked faster and really energized. Oilers played well. Hats off to them. Hopefully Panthers can rest and play better in Game 5 and win the Cup Tuesday night.
Man… watching this after the 8-1 win and then the 5-3 win for the oilers is awesome! The comments on here are hilarious! Now, I don’t know if the Oilers can actually pull this off, but dang! It gives me some hope and hilarity!
its not really skinners fault entirely, couple goals were soft or misplayed but I thought he was okay, does not help the fact the dmen are usually leaving him to fend for himself, where as bob has solid Dmen, not to mention bob is genuinely a wall, holy fuck
He is not a bad goalie, but he doesnt do extra saves which would change tides of the game. Something what Bobrovsky did and keep Florida over the water. I feel like that is real reason why it is 3-0. Cause Edmonton played good in game 1 and 3. But Florida capitalized on every mistake Edmonton made.
It’s not like edm D hasn’t let Skinner out to dry in the vast majority of goals. I don’t think even Bob would have saved most of those. If you need a scapegoat, look at the edm offense not scoring.
@@paulg6274 Literally all meaningless. They got goalied in game 1, outplayed in games 2 and 3. Being clinical on your chances is a metric of domination, and in that category Florida is completely crushing Edmonton.
Original Florida fan here (still have my original jersey). Very happy for the franchise, for Maurice, and for this great team. Florida plays very disciplined hockey and takes advantage of play created off of this style. As far as it being a boring series - it is what it is, the best of the West vs. the best of the East. As Maximus from the movie Gladiator said, "are you not entertained?" Much respect for what Edmonton has accomplished considering last year and the early start of this year. I am a long time Red Wing fan (since childhood) and am a big fan of those early NHL teams. I would love to see a Canadian team once again win the Cup.
When Perry signed with Edmonton, first thing I said was I wish The Oilers luck with losing the Stanley cup final. It's hilarious to me that it's actually happening.
Perry has got to feel cursed. I mean for a player to make the finals 4 out of 5 years and lose all of them. Man some players don’t even make it once to the finals.
McDavid is too selfish, taking 12.5m all to himself, leaving no room to get decent talent. McKinnon understood that, get lower deal, win a cup THEN ask for your money. Also Darnell Nurse fucking blows, buy him out.
1000% Bob is the difference. That and the Oilers defense are making more stupid mistakes. They had 3 in a row in the 2nd period last night. Just horrendous. Oilers have had far more quality chances in 2/3 games.
How did you watch the first three have and conclude Florida was dominating? They got outplayed in game one and game three. Dominating? They have a good goalie.
As a Panthers fan, I honestly do kinda feel bad for the Oilers stuck with Nurse. People called Bobrovsky "the worst contract in the NHL", but it paid off a lot and we are seeing it live, happening right before our eyes. Nurse, man... I honestly don't even have a clue on HOW the Oilers even managed to find something redeeming in that guy, something worth of a long-term contract. Keep in mind, Gustav Forsling, probably the best waivers pick in recent history, signed an 8x5.75M contract with the Panthers in March. Forsling is at an whopping +15 in this series and an insane +56 overall in the playoffs. Absolute stud on both attack and defense. 8 years, signed for much less and performs way better on the ice. I'd say that the only NHL contract that somehow matches that of Nurse in the "worst" department might be Jonathan Huberdeau, as he fell off from an 115-point season player to being benched by the Flames, and if he doesn't turn around, I might honestly say he's washed.
@@choppergunner8650nurse came off a crazy season during covid and swindled that contract. I guess they thought it would've been a break out year? The fact he's getting paid more the draisaitl stings, and it kills me seeing Quinn Hughes' contract. The buyout is looking pretty nice
Bobrovsky’s a BEAST, Edmonton is taking beautiful shots and he blocks almost all of em. The panthers where built for the playoffs, from they’re offense to defense they’re a machine.
Thanks to Barkov, because everyone in Panthers is playing by his example. Domination at the both ends. He is the first to help the DM and the first to attack. Because he skates the whole shift with incredible stamina
As a hockey fan, it is sad. I was hoping for a tight and competitive series. I thought going in this would be one of the best series we've had in awhile. What a let down. I guess we can hope Edmonton goes on a miracle 3 game winning streak but I think we know that isn't happening.
Panther fan channels are so enjoyable to watch now. The arrogance dissipates like a loud, angry fart, and dudes need to rethink their TH-cam ideas and alarming lack of hockey knowledge.
To be fair, it looked like it would be a sweep from analyzing games 1-3. I really doubt anyone actually predicted an Edmonton comeback without hindsight bias
@@QuesoBuesoif one had truly analyzed games 1 - 3 they would see that the Oilers dominated games 1&3 and really only had one bad performance on their part in game 2. Bobrovsky stood tall in games 1&2 but in game 3 the gate opened, the Oilers have solved Bobrovsky in particular and the Panthers in general. I’m realistic in thinking the Panthers still might win the series. Definitely not in Game 6. The Oilers will win that game. It’s game 7 I’m worried about as the Panthers will be playing at total desperation. But if I had to bet I would bet that a different kind of history is in the works that will upend the books.
@@vajrasiddhi They may have outplayed them, but the series has been relatively even in total. Florida obviously really relies on Bob, so Edmonton being able to break him down wasn’t as predictable as you might’ve thought. Oilers could dominate all they wanted, but they didn’t break Bob in games 1-3.
@@QuesoBuesoright, well as I wrote, the gate opened in game 3: and that’s when they began to solve Bobrovsky, in the latter stages of the game, but it can be argued that Skinner and the Oilers weren’t giving the Oilers a chance to win that game.
If both teams had league average goaltending, who wins? Bobrovsky owns the Oilers right now, but the team in front of him looks pretty evenly matched tbh.
Well, you probably saw how Panthers started playing when they were on the deficit. It’s still Florida, although not to the same margin. Bob’s been on the case the whole playoffs.
@@Wayf4rer It's a management thing, they paid a moron 9+ million per season to get on all fours, spread his legs and take pucks up the bum while deflecting them into his own net
This is embarrassing for the Oilers organization. This is what happens when edmontonian put two guys on a pedestal all I ever hear is how great Connor McDavid is and people think that he is a second coming of Wayne Gretzky then when you have a radio host Bob Stauffer every time they don't go their way and the team doesn't win he literally tears the team down what a Debbie Downer that guy is. When you get two guys like that and put them on a high pedestal and expect them to deliver it's too much pressure. Both Connor McDavid and Leon dry Seidel contracts are up soon I hope they go to another team. Have a happy Saturday to you all.
"Oilers aren't kicking themselves for making a few mistakes, for giving away games" Yeah actually they are. If you watched the 2nd period you would absolutely see that's what happened. The Oilers have controlled play massively in games 1 and 3, outshooting their opponent, getting the better expected goals for, but Bob is standing on his head and the Oilers have lapses where their brains fall out of their skulls and the Panthers capitalize.
Oilers shouldn’t even be in the Final. Not only were they on the luckiest bracket in history, they needed a handful of very questionable calls and diving to get past VAN, and met a gassed out Dallas who had just beaten two tough teams
I had a feeling this would happen....I hate the long layoff between the end of the conf to the stanley cup final. From watching the Oilers they seem to have a tough time getting going after a break....This is not an excuse...Fla deserves all the credit especially Bob...
We are almost ready for game four ... Shouldn't they have acclimated by now?? Geez ... It was only until late in the 3rd period of game 3 that they looked remotely like the Edmonton Oilers.
2019 St.Louis vs Boston was in my opinion the last good finals we had. Seems like every final since had just been one sided atleast 2019 was back and forth kept you guessing
Yeah I'm a cats fan so I'm obviously over the moon because I've been waiting for this my whole life, but if there is a bit of a damper it's that this series has been pretty one-sided and not particularly exciting for the average NHL fan. Would be cooler to have seen more of a battle, but I'm also not counting my eggs before they hatch. There's still a game four here in Edmonton and anything can happen. I'd be down for a sweep, but I also wouldn't mind seeing the boys lift the cup in front of a home crowd.
The Oilers did made a lot of mistakes after a tie. If the Cats did sweep the Oilers, they'll win their first Stanley Cup for sure, but I don't know who were the first NHL team to win their first Stanley Cup in a sweep. Also, the last Stanley Cup Finals sweep was back in 1998 when the Red Wings swept the Caps.

why is he even in the league ? when a crap team like the blackhawks dumps you that should have told the oilers to pass on him !
Exactly @@Michael-hq1iq
@@Michael-hq1iq The oilers are paying DEI Nurse as much as McDavid almost so what do you expect from the oilers? The curse is they don't know how to build or manage a team since 1991
Perry got sandwiched in the crease, even piled on then he gets penalized and puts on a display, poor sport................
Huh? You. Watching. Game. 4?
Bring the brooms game 4
8-1 lmao
This will be the third consecutive year that the Oilers have been eliminated by the eventual Cup champion. Bobrovsky should win the Conn Smythe.
It’s as close as they will get
Still greatful for Dallas whipping Colorado and Vegas this season, although to be fair Dallas did them a huge favor as McDavid and Co looked a different beast in 2024.
And now the oilers are at match point 😂😂😂
Panthers fan here. After getting smashed in game 4 by a score of 8-1 the Panthers looked exhausted and Edmonton looked faster and really energized. Oilers played well. Hats off to them. Hopefully Panthers can rest and play better in Game 5 and win the Cup Tuesday night.
Most likely, but beyond a game 5 things may get dicey. Worst case , and I mean worst I see for now is Panthers in 7.
Looking forward to your next video
Man… watching this after the 8-1 win and then the 5-3 win for the oilers is awesome! The comments on here are hilarious! Now, I don’t know if the Oilers can actually pull this off, but dang! It gives me some hope and hilarity!
If they do, without a doubt best comeback a team has done.
Ranked 32nd in early season, then winning the Stanley Cup?
I’d love to witness it.
As a Canucks fan I am super happy.
As an oilers fan, your salt from two rounds ago makes this current series sting a little less. Glad to know we're still living rent free.
@@JonSnuh ur salt the entire year makes it worth while knowing ur losing to florida 4-0
Im a wpg jets fan i agree
@@JonSnuhOilers are NOT Canada's Team. Trash
@defiant_gamer lol didn't say they are. Why you salting at me bro?
its not really skinners fault entirely, couple goals were soft or misplayed but I thought he was okay, does not help the fact the dmen are usually leaving him to fend for himself, where as bob has solid Dmen, not to mention bob is genuinely a wall, holy fuck
Are you serious ? Skinner is atrocious. He is an AHL level goalie at best.
@@Pizzalover22-um1vw 2nd year as goalie and in the finals, you’d expect him to be better?
He is not a bad goalie, but he doesnt do extra saves which would change tides of the game. Something what Bobrovsky did and keep Florida over the water. I feel like that is real reason why it is 3-0. Cause Edmonton played good in game 1 and 3. But Florida capitalized on every mistake Edmonton made.
@@everydaynormalguy883 panthers have been capitalizing on the mistakes all series
It’s not like edm D hasn’t let Skinner out to dry in the vast majority of goals. I don’t think even Bob would have saved most of those. If you need a scapegoat, look at the edm offense not scoring.
Series has been so one-sided
It actually hasnt really. Oilers have won alot of metrics
@@paulg6274 Yeah Edmonton is dominating crybaby/60 and suck/60
@@Wayf4rer well, actuallly shots, high danger scoring chances and posession time in 2/3 games

@@paulg6274 Literally all meaningless. They got goalied in game 1, outplayed in games 2 and 3. Being clinical on your chances is a metric of domination, and in that category Florida is completely crushing Edmonton.
If this video is accurate, how did oilers just win 8-1?
As a flames fan, this warms my heart.
I really miss the talbot/smith goalie fight from a few years back. THAT was the battle of alberta.
As a Flames fan, this is about the only news that's going to be warming your heart for a long while lmfao.
As a Sens fan , this warms my heart too , and we're by far the worse Canadian team!!
@pilotamurorei that was peak hockey for me. It was all downhill for the Flames after that season.
Original Florida fan here (still have my original jersey). Very happy for the franchise, for Maurice, and for this great team. Florida plays very disciplined hockey and takes advantage of play created off of this style. As far as it being a boring series - it is what it is, the best of the West vs. the best of the East. As Maximus from the movie Gladiator said, "are you not entertained?" Much respect for what Edmonton has accomplished considering last year and the early start of this year. I am a long time Red Wing fan (since childhood) and am a big fan of those early NHL teams. I would love to see a Canadian team once again win the Cup.
After game 4, idk if Florida is just better
The Oilers completing the reverse sweep will be the harbinger of WWIII
Where is your update after game 4?
What Bob is doing is absolutely filthy, like I'm mad but also so damn impressed.
When Perry signed with Edmonton, first thing I said was I wish The Oilers luck with losing the Stanley cup final. It's hilarious to me that it's actually happening.
This year was one of the most entertaining playoffs until this final happened…
OILERS could make more entertaining tomorrow if they win the floodgates will also 😆
Are you watching the games or just reading the HF Boards GDT?
Perry has got to feel cursed. I mean for a player to make the finals 4 out of 5 years and lose all of them. Man some players don’t even make it once to the finals.
His bank account isn't over 100 million career earnings for Perry 😆
Perry doesn't show much maybe that is why 4 0f the last 5 years have had shitty results....
Is it over ….
Well, I’m a Leafs fan and I’m enjoying it. 😂
Until you realize your team hasn’t won since there were 6 teams and will never even come close to sniffing another cup again in any lifetime 😂😭
ur pathetic. im a oilers fan
At least the oilers made it past the 1st round of which the leafs have not
No, if you were a true leafs fan, you'd be cheering on the Oilers while seething at the Panthers even existing
@primestopper132 you are seeing right now, how well the oilers would do in the atl.
This “goals saved above expected” state makes no freaking sense… the nhl seems to have new “stats” that no one understands and it’s stupid…
Welp the oilers just murdered Florida 8-1
Poor Bob. And this isn't even the Oiler's final form...
well, this aged poorly.
It's really hard to be disapointed when they havent given me any reason to get my hopes up all finals
McDavid is too selfish, taking 12.5m all to himself, leaving no room to get decent talent. McKinnon understood that, get lower deal, win a cup THEN ask for your money. Also Darnell Nurse fucking blows, buy him out.
I think the Oilers are playing better, Bobrovsky is just playing 10 times better than Skinner. He will 100 percent win Stanley Cup MVP.
1000% Bob is the difference. That and the Oilers defense are making more stupid mistakes. They had 3 in a row in the 2nd period last night. Just horrendous. Oilers have had far more quality chances in 2/3 games.
@@Sorensenator86Minus 3 stupid mistakes Oilers win at least 3 2 in regulation.
Hey bud. Never doubt us from Etown 😂 Oilers in 7
How did you watch the first three have and conclude Florida was dominating? They got outplayed in game one and game three. Dominating? They have a good goalie.
I swear Eck only watches the highlights
@@CanadianBongRipper he sees what he wants to see.
Nurse and Ceci value just went through the basement and into the earth🤣🤣
As a Panthers fan, I honestly do kinda feel bad for the Oilers stuck with Nurse. People called Bobrovsky "the worst contract in the NHL", but it paid off a lot and we are seeing it live, happening right before our eyes. Nurse, man... I honestly don't even have a clue on HOW the Oilers even managed to find something redeeming in that guy, something worth of a long-term contract. Keep in mind, Gustav Forsling, probably the best waivers pick in recent history, signed an 8x5.75M contract with the Panthers in March. Forsling is at an whopping +15 in this series and an insane +56 overall in the playoffs. Absolute stud on both attack and defense. 8 years, signed for much less and performs way better on the ice.
I'd say that the only NHL contract that somehow matches that of Nurse in the "worst" department might be Jonathan Huberdeau, as he fell off from an 115-point season player to being benched by the Flames, and if he doesn't turn around, I might honestly say he's washed.
@@choppergunner8650he was a DEI signing.
Toenail Nurse
@@choppergunner8650nurse came off a crazy season during covid and swindled that contract. I guess they thought it would've been a break out year? The fact he's getting paid more the draisaitl stings, and it kills me seeing Quinn Hughes' contract. The buyout is looking pretty nice
Bobrovsky’s a BEAST, Edmonton is taking beautiful shots and he blocks almost all of em. The panthers where built for the playoffs, from they’re offense to defense they’re a machine.
Thanks to Barkov, because everyone in Panthers is playing by his example. Domination at the both ends. He is the first to help the DM and the first to attack. Because he skates the whole shift with incredible stamina
Hell, I called 5 games, now I'm thinking sweep.... and I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!
As a hockey fan, it is sad. I was hoping for a tight and competitive series. I thought going in this would be one of the best series we've had in awhile. What a let down. I guess we can hope Edmonton goes on a miracle 3 game winning streak but I think we know that isn't happening.
Mhm. We sure can hope 🤭

@@Markymark-gg6qf No they weren't, the Canucks had major injuries in positions that would have seen the Oilers lose in 4/5 if they experienced them.
Bob is doing to Edmonton what he did to Toronto and Carolina last year. Florida's team D and physical play is too much for any team in the league.
Panther fan channels are so enjoyable to watch now. The arrogance dissipates like a loud, angry fart, and dudes need to rethink their TH-cam ideas and alarming lack of hockey knowledge.
To be fair, it looked like it would be a sweep from analyzing games 1-3. I really doubt anyone actually predicted an Edmonton comeback without hindsight bias
@@QuesoBuesoif one had truly analyzed games 1 - 3 they would see that the Oilers dominated games 1&3 and really only had one bad performance on their part in game 2. Bobrovsky stood tall in games 1&2 but in game 3 the gate opened, the Oilers have solved Bobrovsky in particular and the Panthers in general. I’m realistic in thinking the Panthers still might win the series. Definitely not in Game 6. The Oilers will win that game.
It’s game 7 I’m worried about as the Panthers will be playing at total desperation. But if I had to bet I would bet that a different kind of history is in the works that will upend the books.
@@vajrasiddhi They may have outplayed them, but the series has been relatively even in total. Florida obviously really relies on Bob, so Edmonton being able to break him down wasn’t as predictable as you might’ve thought. Oilers could dominate all they wanted, but they didn’t break Bob in games 1-3.
@@QuesoBuesoright, well as I wrote, the gate opened in game 3: and that’s when they began to solve Bobrovsky, in the latter stages of the game, but it can be argued that Skinner and the Oilers weren’t giving the Oilers a chance to win that game.
Feeling better about the Rangers now...
If both teams had league average goaltending, who wins?
Bobrovsky owns the Oilers right now, but the team in front of him looks pretty evenly matched tbh.
Fla because they out hit and wear Edmonton down. Edmonton just can't hang
If each team had 5 Connor McDavids, who wins?
@@justincowen441 Both teams will lose.
Well, you probably saw how Panthers started playing when they were on the deficit. It’s still Florida, although not to the same margin. Bob’s been on the case the whole playoffs.
Still feel this way eck?
Florida has way more class than the Oilers. Not sad, but true.
It's a composure thing. Florida acted the same way vs Vegas last year. Deers in the headlights on the big stage.
@@Wayf4rer It's a management thing, they paid a moron 9+ million per season to get on all fours, spread his legs and take pucks up the bum while deflecting them into his own net
This is embarrassing for the Oilers organization. This is what happens when edmontonian put two guys on a pedestal all I ever hear is how great Connor McDavid is and people think that he is a second coming of Wayne Gretzky then when you have a radio host Bob Stauffer every time they don't go their way and the team doesn't win he literally tears the team down what a Debbie Downer that guy is. When you get two guys like that and put them on a high pedestal and expect them to deliver it's too much pressure. Both Connor McDavid and Leon dry Seidel contracts are up soon I hope they go to another team. Have a happy Saturday to you all.
im a flames fan and im over the moon. i hope Florida wins on sat and lifts the cup in edm haha
would be hilarious -also a flames fan
The rise of the Florida Panthers needs to be studied
"Oilers aren't kicking themselves for making a few mistakes, for giving away games" Yeah actually they are. If you watched the 2nd period you would absolutely see that's what happened. The Oilers have controlled play massively in games 1 and 3, outshooting their opponent, getting the better expected goals for, but Bob is standing on his head and the Oilers have lapses where their brains fall out of their skulls and the Panthers capitalize.
You just summarized what separates champions from pretenders. Nice work.
What was that you were saying eh bud? 😂 8-1 is the definition of getting dog walked 🇨🇦
3-1 deficit
Oilers shouldn’t even be in the Final. Not only were they on the luckiest bracket in history, they needed a handful of very questionable calls and diving to get past VAN, and met a gassed out Dallas who had just beaten two tough teams
salty kings, canucks, or stars fan alert
I had a feeling this would happen....I hate the long layoff between the end of the conf to the stanley cup final. From watching the Oilers they seem to have a tough time getting going after a break....This is not an excuse...Fla deserves all the credit especially Bob...
We are almost ready for game four ... Shouldn't they have acclimated by now?? Geez ... It was only until late in the 3rd period of game 3 that they looked remotely like the Edmonton Oilers.
As a WPG jets fan im enjoying the panthers winning
To be honest Jets are more disappointing getting almost swept every playoffs after regular season hardwork. At least Oilers are in the final .
Nothing makes me happier then watching Edmonton shit the bed and lose spectacularly. RIP Coilers
You are not reviewing plays properly. It was McDiver who was "too cute with the puck". Then he just skates down to look dumb in the d-zone.
McDavid is a god on this channel. Can never say a bad thing about him.
2019 St.Louis vs Boston was in my opinion the last good finals we had. Seems like every final since had just been one sided atleast 2019 was back and forth kept you guessing
The oilers and their fans are not tough enough.
Edmonton is a shithole
As a Calgarian I am definitely not sad lol 😂.
It’s not sad it’s beautiful 😂🥰😘
Yeah I'm a cats fan so I'm obviously over the moon because I've been waiting for this my whole life, but if there is a bit of a damper it's that this series has been pretty one-sided and not particularly exciting for the average NHL fan. Would be cooler to have seen more of a battle, but I'm also not counting my eggs before they hatch. There's still a game four here in Edmonton and anything can happen. I'd be down for a sweep, but I also wouldn't mind seeing the boys lift the cup in front of a home crowd.
lifting the cup is the deal ! none of the pens cup clinchers were home games and the fans were cool with that !
Gonna need that cup asap to bail out all that water down in Florida. Heave ho heave ho lol
Cant wait for your new video comes out… after oilers 8-1 win and pulling Bob.
This video aged horribly
As a panthers fan, it’s not over until that 4th win. We’ve never seen a Stanley Cup. One more win.
Exactly! We need to get that one tomorrow!
The Oilers did made a lot of mistakes after a tie. If the Cats did sweep the Oilers, they'll win their first Stanley Cup for sure, but I don't know who were the first NHL team to win their first Stanley Cup in a sweep. Also, the last Stanley Cup Finals sweep was back in 1998 when the Red Wings swept the Caps.
8-1
Been waiting on this breakdown of a disastrous game. As much as I like watching the oilers, it’s wraps for them. Gonna miss the hockey coverage eck ☹️
