From a Leafs fan, allow me to say: good luck Oilers. I'm rooting for you guys! McJesus is just an incredible player (and from my hometown). And Draisaitl is such a legend. Miss you Hyman. Go Canada 🍁🍁🍁
Yeah maybe Paul Coffey should lace up those old skates again, just for old time sake🤣😂Like I know he does skate with the team during practice, but I mean actual game play? Yeah I know the answers No...But it would be Funny and also Great to see...for the first time ever since the Hertiage Classic, that happend many years ago in 2004 against Montreal, and then I think they had another one against Winnipeg, a few years later or something.
This is the biggest story of the year, maybe of the decade, that the Oilers finally learned how to play defence! It was always the one piece missing from the team that would take them to the Cup finals.
I think the Oilers are poised to surprise people. We beat a Stars team not playing 100% out game. Yes, Florida is tougher. They are like a hybrid build of Vancouver and Dallas. However, I honestly think we are even depth wise. Yes Florida has the better goalie. But the Oilers have a better defensive structure allowing Skinner to see shots. Yes, Barkov is an unreal 2 way centre. But can his feet catch McDavid for 7 games? Yes, Bennet is a bully. But we have Sam Carrick who is also a bully and much bigger. Yes, they have Matthew, but he can hurt the Panthers as much as he helps them. I think this series is going to be closer than people think. And I believe the Oilers will pull away with this one. We’ve got to dig deep AND mentally be ready for any obstacle.
I remember my favorite player Wendel Clark say something like, you're not playing 60 mins of the game. Whatever ice time you get, just give it your all, if it's 20 min, 10 min or even just 5 min. Just give everything you got, especially now with this opportunity of a lifetime to win the cup is within your grasp. I hope McDavid and the rest just play best hockey they ever played in their life. And whatever happens happens.
Oilers are bigger get your facts straight. The Oilers have 6 D-man in the lineup that are 6' 3" to 6' 7". Panthers are 6-1 198 and the Oilers are 6-2 203. Oh and the canucks 6-1 197 lol.
Are the Panthers more physical than what Vancouver gave Edmonton? I thought Vancouver outplayed them physically, but they took it and worked around it.
Panthers r deep, it hasn’t just been Tkachuck scoring game winners like last year. Look at guys like Lundell, Forlsing, Tarasenko. The goals r spread out.
@agnarfranco3661 yeah, heard the same stuff from Dallas and Vancouver. When you're dragged into deep water and your top players aren't scoring (ours will be)......what are you gonng to do? Can your 3rd liners produce at the same pace as the Oilers top line? Can your defence out produce the highest scoring defence in the playoffs?
@@johanstinson we shut down the Rangers Bruins and Lightning top scorers 😂😂😂 while facing Vasi Swayman and Igor … arguably top 3 goalies in the league. Honestly I wouldn’t get ur hopes up.
The oil better count on getting more pucks on net than they did vs dallas or the panthers will eat them alive. The oil also better step up the shot blocks. Go oil.
Lol. Sure, becasue the last game means more than the previous 5 against Dallas lol. Oilers get plenty of shots and have a way higher shooting percentage than Florida
Id love to say oil in 4 but I think florida will win one so oil in 5. Florida takes to many penalties. Chucky n bennet know what playoff mcdavid can do. Go oilers go!

Why?
Thanks for Hyman, what a beauty of a player Toronto gave us.
@@cindyrussell1581 I know 😢
You forgot the hugest player Nuge 😏
@@AR-wm9lv whenever he gets a goal i yell "zachary on the attackery"
28 straight penalty kills. And Paul Coffey's wisdom. Defense is winning games for the Oilers.

Now they are! Coffey need some credit for turning the defence around.

Looks like you're in the same room
lol i wouldnt be surprised if they are...they are on the same podcast
Vancouver played a similar style. Fla is just a little bigger.
Their defense is much smaller and less physical than Vancouvers D.
Oilers are bigger get your facts straight. The Oilers have 6 D-man in the lineup that are 6' 3" to 6' 7". Panthers are 6-1 198 and the Oilers are 6-2 203. Oh and the canucks 6-1 197 lol.
@@plazmarevenge2098 Silly, i meant FLA is alittle bigger than VAN. Not oilers. Get your comprehension straight.
@@archangelgabriel5316Florida is Statistically the same size as the Canucks SMH
@@archangelgabriel5316 Speed kills power. Also, Tkachuk is rat and the Oilers will handle him just as they did in Calgary.
Every series TSN has said this will be Edmontons toughest series…So let the real fun begin..
Let’s go Oilers 💙🧡
Not to worry and try to scare the Oilers, were up for the task, were a team thats hard to beat as well. We got here for a reason. Go Oilers Go.
Gonna be a great series. GO OILERS GO!
Yeah, Skinner did well, but can he keep it up? I think that's the Question.
Don't doubt Skinner he will be fine.
Are the Panthers more physical than what Vancouver gave Edmonton? I thought Vancouver outplayed them physically, but they took it and worked around it.
Panthers prepare for toughest test of playoffs against the Oilers in the Stanley Cup final.
A question for Panthers is what's their answer if their top guys cant produce against the Oil?
Panthers r deep, it hasn’t just been Tkachuck scoring game winners like last year. Look at guys like Lundell, Forlsing, Tarasenko. The goals r spread out.

@@agnarfranco3661 Edmonton scores more goals though, AND they're more spread out (16 goal scorers vs 14 these playoffs)
@@agnarfranco3661 lol. Their top players aren't equal to Edmontons.
panthers are Vancouver East version.
Oilers got this..its going to be easier than what happened with Vancouver or Dallas..those two teams were really their tough matches..Not Florida!
You are high if you think it’s going to be easier lol.
honey, you're smoking really good crack if you think FLA is going to be easier than DAL or VAN. 😵💫
The oil better count on getting more pucks on net than they did vs dallas or the panthers will eat them alive. The oil also better step up the shot blocks. Go oil.
Lol.
Sure, becasue the last game means more than the previous 5 against Dallas lol. Oilers get plenty of shots and have a way higher shooting percentage than Florida
Still won
Florida is a better Vancouver team. Canucks took Oilers to seven without Demko, Boeser (game 7) and healthy Petey and Hronek. Panthers in 6
don't get me wrong, i really like cats. but the panthers are dead.
Id love to say oil in 4 but I think florida will win one so oil in 5. Florida takes to many penalties. Chucky n bennet know what playoff mcdavid can do. Go oilers go!
