Feeling pretty good about this.

They have three Hart trophy winners on their top line. Their second line is also pretty decent.

Nurse and Bouchard are a functional top defensive pair. They have not one but TWO niggers on the team.

Pickard is playing better than Skinner was. That was a good move.

They don't have a lot of depth and they run very top heavy but McJesus plays like a bat out of hell. He is possessed or something. They have a million come from behind wins. They kind of took the regular season off and didn't make anybody's radar.

I am not super confident but I could just see it happening. It feels like no matter how far down they are they can always come back. They also remind me of Florida last year how they had been an offensive team the year prior, almost made it all the way, then retooled and came back as a defensive team. Edmonton look visually like they were built for a Cup run.

It’s only a matter of time before Skinner falls apart. Amazes me that Edmonton management is going to piss away the best player of all times career because they won’t pay for a goalie.

Dude this guy is ten times better at hockey then anyone else around him. I actually feel for him. I'm also as good at what I do as he is at hockey ie I'm the best in the world at something. So I totally get it, I understand what it's like to be surrounded by incompetent morons. 95% of his job is trying to motivate crap hockey players to buy in and play the best hockey of their lives for like 10 more fucking games so he can justify being the best player on planet earth which everyone knows he is. Man. He actually seems pretty level headed. Imagine having to motivate Nuge every single day to not suck long enough for McJesus to lift the cup must be exhausting.

Florida is the kind of team that wins Cups…all sandpaper and grit but somehow having offensive talent. They even have Rat Boy Marchand, the patron saint of dirty agitator playoff hockey. Not saying it’s impossible but it’s not a good matchup for a top-heavy, shaky goaltending team like Edmonton.

yes this will be one of the most epic Stanley Cups in a long time. a rematch of a Cup that went to game 7, the best player vs the best team etc. Two teams people actually know nationally and follow, not some upstart whose goalie got hot at the right time and came out of nowhere. It's must-watch TV. I think it's going 6 or 7 for sure. It's going to be wild.

Of course Florida is built to win a Cup and has a strong chance to win. But you can't count out McDavid and Draisaitl. They have the will to win. I mean they came extremely close last year. You can never count them out. They beat some really good teams to get here. And I think with the experience of last year they may just have what it takes. Can't wait to watch this shit unfold.

It's going to be a tough series and Florida will drain their blood. But the Oilers have come too far since last season. They've learned a lesson in winning. The explosive goal scoring and conservative trap play in the neutral zone will win the day. They're going to limit what Florida can do offensively and then go off for 5 goals when they need to. They're a scoring machine. Best offensive team in a long time.

They're too dialed in right now. It won't happen. They've embarrassed three really good teams. They've gone 12-2 since dropping the first two games of the playoffs. No one has come close to beating them. Florida is a really good team but they have shown cracks. They got shut out in Game 6 at home vs Toronto. As long as Edmonton doesn't get in a deep hole early on like last year they're not going to lose. They're too talented.

Not a hockey fan? 8 seeds have won it all before. These two teams were in it last year, dogged the regular season, and won on the road in the playoffs. It's very common for elite teams who play 9 months out of the year to not take the regular season seriously.

Meanwhile it's very rare that the President's Trophy winner (best regular season record) wins the Stanley Cup. So much so that it's almost considered a curse to have the best record. The best teams turn it on when they need to.

I still think Florida needs to win Game 3.

It's kind of an indictment on the Panthers that they even needed Brand Marchand for 2 goals in that game. What would they have been without him? The returning core from last year seem worn down and depleted, especially Tkachuck who has been a no-show. Ekblad looks like a shell too (since he can't do steroids anymore).

Oilers didn't play their best game and still took it to double OT. They need to crack down on defense and be less sloppy with the puck and giving up breakaways. Their offensive deluge is still incoming. Florida needs to go up 3 goals in Game 3 early. This is the first real setback for Edmonton since Round 1. Panthers need to capitalize and go up 2-1 or they are toast. I do not see them coming back from down 2-1 when Edmonton has 2 more home games.

Game 3 will be really fun. Hopefully we see something new in this series (one team dominating the other).

They're not better but they are deeper. Getting goals against Edmonton's 4th line has to burn Leon and Connors asses badly.

They played so undisciplined. 3 PP goals allowed. They're beating themselves. They are so sloppy with the penalties and giving up counterattack rushes. They definitely can't win the way they have been playing.

But it's not over. I do consider Game 4 a must win. They have to come out and play a clean game. No penalties and better defense. The goals will come. This is far from over, a Game 4 win and they're right back in it. They just have to clean up their act and make adjustments.

if Florida hangs on 5 of the last 6 champions will have come from no income tax states.

Alberta is 48% all in vs 37% in Florida. That's a huge difference. You can buy a lot of depth with 11%.

I don’t buy it. Tax is paid based on where the games are played so they only have a small advantage. Also, I don’t remember hearing about this huge tax advantage when Florida and Tampa were sucking balls for 10+ year stretches.

Florida Tampa and Vegas all had extra stacked rosters. Tons of depth. The money spigot was wide open. The Oilers are not good after their top line. I don't think it's incompetence in roster construction.

Also the Leafs are actually a very well constructed team this year. But again no secondary scoring. The Canadian teams are always top heavy with no depth.

Edmonton let Gretzky leave in his prime. They repeatedly finished last in the league and were able to luck into a generational player. If they had even middling competent management they would have won a couple of cups with McDavid and Draisaitl. These guys are going to go their entire careers without a cup.

It's been a long journey. OP here this thread aged pretty well imo. Not some terrible Rudolph prediction. I think they shocked the Western Conference this year after slow playing the season. If they were any better they would be Stanley Cup champions.

Nobody will come out and say it but McDavid has been subpar this series. I think losing Hyman hurt a lot, but when the entire team runs through him/Leon you need them both clicking.

There is no doubt losing Hyman was devastating for a team with no depth.

I don't know why Conner is sucking it's unlike him.

It's incredibly kooky that Edmonton can dominate the entire second period and still come away down a goal.

Skinner is garbage. Extended d zone shift and he has a chance to freeze the puck and just blocks it back out in front of the net. It’s inexcusable Edmonton hasn’t spent money on a goalie. Hell, acquire a bunch of cheap options / backups during the regular season and see who plays well and ride them through the playoffs.

It's tough to find an elite goalie. The best ones get locked down fast and signed to big contracts. They don't grow on trees and if you're desperate enough you have to give up a top 6 forward to get one. And Edmonton really doesn't have that kind of depth. You'd have to trade a guy like Hyman to get a goalie like Bob.

Also underdiscussed here is that Nuge has been bad too. Normally a clear #3 he has been a no show.

Edmonton doesn't need an elite goalie. They could have gotten a number of mid-tier guys in the offseason. Hell, Ulmark was available for draft picks. They simply refuse to move on from Skinner.

Ullmark sucks hth. He was Not Good against Toronto. If you're going to go after a Stanley Cup champion caliber goalie then go after a guy like Bob.

You're either so loaded at every other position like Chicago in their championship years and it doesn't matter and you just toss a guy out there on the ice or you go after a guy who can stand on his head. But why you'd try for a marginal upgrade is beyond me.

You're not going to get a Bob/Connor/Igor.

They could have gotten Blackwood, Gustavsson, Bishop, Dostal, Daccord, etc.

Skinner ranked 20th in the league in save percentage. Guys in the 7-12 range are regularly available.

Oh go shove it up your ass. That's just silly. He had 11 more points than the Conn Smythe winner. He just had a shitty goalie and no depth.

Florida is a way better team but not because Barkov won a couple Selkes. It's because of the whole crew. They needed every player on the roster.

Edmonton is Connor, Leon, and a bunch of scrubs.
