As a new oilers fan over the last 4 years, since moving to Alberta, never having been a hockey fan before - my god these guys have given us all such a gift!
Game 4 was so epic, and the turning point for us! Janmark/Brown/Henrique was a fantastic addition! Takes the pressure off Mcdavid and Drai. This is goona be awesome! Go Oilers!
I disagree I think the 3rd period of game 3 was the turning point. Even after going down in series 0-3 they figured something out during 2nd intermission of game 3 and almost came back down 4-1. They started to find themselves and gain momentum in 3rd period of game 3 which continued through rest of series.
It has been the craziest playoffs with the leafs choking that caused me so much stress and then Edmonton.s opponents against the kings Canucks and stars. All were very good teams.
Don’t really need Vinny. He’s a big body, but he doesn’t help with his untimely penalties. I think Derek Ryan is probably gone, Perry is probably gone, Kane might be on LTIR, which frees up a bit of cap space, however, Bouchard, Draisaitl, and McDavid are all probably earning a huge pay increase, as much as I’d like to see them take a pay cut to help with salary cap implications.. they’re worth whatever they’re asking
@@coryholte5305 I agree, imo I would try and trade Ceci for a cheaper D man, idk what the rumoured price for Vinny is but if it’s 2.5 or less I’d ship out Ceci to get some cap flexibility. Re sign Brown Janmark and Henrique hopefully will take a pay cut, get Drai’s deal done probably a 8x13.5-14 Mill, Re sign Bouchard to 8x 9.5. Buyout Jack Campbell. Idk what to do with Nurse’s contract as much as I like him it’s undoubtedly a problem.
I love the channel and I love the Oilers and just as much I love the fans of this city. Makes me so proud to be a part of this all. Ive lived in Vancouver for 15 years and I’ll NEVER cheer for another team. As much as I love the team, seeing our fans Friday night made me just as proud. Let’s go boys!!!!!!
One more thing im born in 78 and its been 78 yrs since this has happened in canada of all places its the sign of the time go Oilers go youve made all hockey fans in canada proud
Hey buddy ive watched everygame on the ship and holy shit this is our moment im so happy weve come this far. Love the channel and keep er up illbe tuning in as always. Never gave up hope true fan here.. peace homie❤
Dallas fan here. Don't, take your foot off the gas. Finish this out. Been rooting for you guys ever since last round ended. If it's not going to be us then I would like to see you guys represent the west and take it home.
Lots of little things turned this series around. But two of the bigger ones 1. Keeping the puck on the outside, limiting Panthers chances to low % areas 2. Stretching the ice using the same strategy Dallas used against them keeping Florida from being able to overload them in their own zone
@@danferguson2724very true, including me during the Canuck fan. I thought we would be done with the Oilers in 6, but the entire Edmonton defensive core and goaltending outplayed us. I hope they take out Florida on Monday...Florida is not as good a team.
Still weird how people say things like "McDavid needs another 4 point game for us to have a chance, Skinner/the oilers need to have their best game yet, etc." McDavid didn't get a shot and they won. Sometimes the other teams goalie just lays an egg. Yes its game 7, but let's not exaggerate.
watching the oilers this season ups and downs ... and seeing this channel grow too ... is something great I think every hockey fan will be watching game 7 ... 🥳
When we were down 0-3 I was hoping to win Game 4 for the fans. When they won 8-1 is when I began the belief again. Just how they clicked and played a solid defensive game with only 1 GA. The efforts in Game 5 and 6 were all identical to Game 4. Obviously I’ve been impressed with Connor but also kind of a different hero every night deal. Brown, Janmark, Holloway, McLeod, Broberg, Hyman, Stu! Been happy with so many guys it’s been awesome to watch! The challenge of the Florida Goal was sick! I was so nervous! They all come to play on Monday and we play our very best game of the year! Thanks for the content and d enjoy your day off! #LFGO
Yes yes we have to play the game, yes fla is a good team, yes yes. Legends will be born this series. Legends HAVE been born this series. Game 7 is ours. Only 4 SPORTS teams in history let alone Stanley cup has come back from 3-0. Baseball and all. Ceci, Brown, and all!
Not so fast. They have to seal the deal and Bob ain't gonna take this going down. There's a reason why he's a multiple Vezina 🏆 winner and wouldn't be surprised if he threw the games away to win this in style.
As a super-superstitious person (when it comes to the Oilers) I don’t count my chickens before they’ve hatched. I remember 2006 and how confident we all were, going into game 7. It’s an emotional scar that lingers to this day. If the Oilers do end up winning it all, fried chicken for everyone!
I’m 46 and a huge Oil fan and not the typical western Canada leafs hater. I want you guys to experience what we’ve been fortunate enough to go through these last two months. It’s nothing short of magical.
Purely magical.. words do not really exist in terms of were this Oilers team is at in all time history of any club, team, or whatever you can put a group of people not only achieve a lifelong dream but to do it in this fashion and completely dump the entire state of Florida up off there pedestal and elevate themselves out of a hole so deep that absolutely nobody was expecting them to come out of. With the odds being less then 4% and lets be real here because im a die-hard Oilers fan and ive waited half of my life for shit like this to go down and not in a million years did i think it was gonna happen anywhere near the way it has.. if they pull it off this is gonna change the life's of not just people directly involved with either franchise but , as a super fan im absolutely in euphoria goosebumps galore and i don't even know how I'm gonna sleep over the next few days.. now i can say this though Austin hockey in game 3 going into The third period after totally one sided hockey puck luck happening for the opposition and myself i was in an utter state of shock watching the chance of a lifetime slip away from this OILERS team that deserved to be in a way better position then they found themselves.. like it was absolutely heartwrenching to watch.. now i can see if Florida was actually the better team i would have accepted my team's fate and just put this year's progress of making The Cup final and behind me and chalked it up to expirence and went back to the same mindset i have for every failed attempt at a cup... But Edmonton was the better team and for about 6 of them first 8 periods.. so i was heartbroken for our team and ultimately anyone who has any thing to do with Oilers..... But they woke up and since then haven't even really looked back and they have been absolutely bin in full Beast mode and pulled off 75% of this unthinkable task off.. with just one more win to get yeah it will be the hardest goal this group of boys will ever have achieve but as Skinner said if anyone can do this its the OIL... JUST BELIEVE MY FRIENDS BELIEVE NOW BELIEVE FOREVER.. and regardless of the games outcome they have perminitly cemented there legacy in not just the modern day but the entire history of hockey.. i can easily say 2023-24 Stanley Cup finals have already been one for the ages.. BRING HOME YOUR SIXTH STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONSHIP AND Float above the world and be proud of yourselfs for the craziness you have already achieved.. please win this for all of Canada
Just to add, another thing that i dont think gets talked about a lot is the travel. I just think the panthers could be fatigued. We all know that florida to edmonton is the longest travel for both teams, however I do think that the oilers are more equipped for longer travel because if you do live in edmonton, just to travel to other cities takes very very long. They're more used to it and Florida isnt. Im not saying for sure that it is DEFINITELY the factor, im saying it COULD be one of the factors of their struggle.
They practically take advantage of the long travel to just shut off and rest. You got Skinner playing Mario Kart and gaining confidence off of it to a point he was vibing to the music in game 5 lmao
If they win the cup and With the salary cap rising I think the players would all be accepting of resigning team friendly deals so the team sticks together. What a storybook run for the oilers this year with how the season played out and now coming back 3-0 to force a game 7 with momentum in their favour. Oilers will win this and get the 6th cup for the franchise. Team sticks together for next season just my opinion
Yeah if McDavid and Leon were to jump ship, they had plenty of better opportunities. Going this far and jumping next season wouldn't make sense. NBA stars are completely different, as a side note
Panthers are blowing it. Oilers believe in their miracle. We won't see something like this for a long, long time, I'm guessing. Oilers said "cup or bust" and I'll agree with that, ESPECIALLY after what they've done to this point.
What’s weird is that the game 3 loss is when the momentum changed. Even in a loss the 3rd period of that game the Oilers started to find themselves. They figured something out in the 2nd intermission of game 3 and have been the much better team since. So even though they went down 0-3 they were able to feed off the 3rd period of that game and have not looked back since. In game 7 I think the 1st goal will be critical. The team that scores 1st will probably win the game. Florida has to score 1st to stop momentum.
@@gamerse7en560 99 was best compared to his peers during that generation (given their training, supplements, equipment, etc). That said, if you "time machine" McDavid back to the 80s/90s, he breaks NHL over his knee including 99
Well Gretzky has never done a reverse sweep so that makes McDavid the greatest of all time with no equal. Gretzky himself says he wish he can be half as great as McDavid.
When virtually every hockey fan is predicting and celebrating the oilers cup win before it happens, I won’t be at all surprised when Florida pulls out the win
The (corsi?) stats are misleading when one team gets a decent lead and plays defensively for a period. Of course the other team will get more chances. Still analysis 👍
Once we pushed to the lead McDavid set to concentrate on defensive details and staying on the right side of the puck. And he did it very well including the necessary penalty to thwart a scoring opportunity. So I hope people don’t see that as an ineffective game for him because that’s just not true. He showed the maturity in his game. What it takes to win! Should we have needed more offence he would have pushed the pace.
No one has mentioned how Paul Maurice lost that game - you DO NOT pull the goaltender with 3:20 in the game, especially against this Oiler team. Scotty Bowman would never have done that.
@@Brian-uq4wu When I was a kid back in the 1970's it was seen as way too early. Oh well, it is what it is. Ultimately Florida did not play with enough desperation.
@@Mr29roses I think I get what you're saying. It seems like most teams pull at 2min or less if they are down by 1. But, they pull much earlier if they need 2. I'm sure coaches look at stats to decide this
I'm an Oilers fan but Game 5 was stolen by the refs for Edmonton. Worst calls ever, the first one called was on Barkov for nothingness because he was about to score a goal. The next one because Nikola was boxing out an Edmonton player, of which was NOT a penalty at all. They called it just because the Edmonton guy fell down...apparently, it's a mystery. Then Tkachuk was seriously tripped bad and they call embellishment on Tkachuk. Then Okposo slightly had a soft touch near the Edmontons players hand and they called a slash on something not even close to a slash. The refs have been one-sided, for Edmonton, in every game. Panthers game 6 are worried about playing their game because the refs are disgusting. Rigged. Bad karma on Edmonton
The "florida hasn't haven't given up 4 games in a row, so it's not likely to happen" argument does not work because they have already lost 3. The odds are different than 3 games ago. It's like saying the odds of a team scoring 10 goals is astronomical, but the team currently has 9 goals with half the game left. So odds now different.
I realize it's 82 games plus the playoffs and these players are creatures of habit. That being said, watching the game FL is predictable when in the O zone wanting to just cycle the puck. Watch EDM throughout the game, they just anticipate the cycle game, aka take the step to the boards before the puck goes there. FL, IMO needs to change this and take it to the net or just put shots towards Skinner. I would also like to see different dump in's. Sometimes put the shot/dump in towards Skinner. Try to get O zone face offs or a mistake by Skinner. Again the predictability of FL on the the dump raps have the Oilers D men below the dots ready for that. Lastly, I would like to see the PP go to a 3rd/4th line mentality aka outwork the PK and keep it simple. No fancy plays and have a shooting mentality. All in game 7. FL won 3 games, no reason a 4th cant be won
The unprecedented suck of the Oilers, something never seen before in over 100 years of league history, may finally pay off! Other organizations are sure to follow being the worst team in the league for multiple years to get 4 1st overall picks and a 3rd overall in 5 years. Unfortunately, the NHL had to change draft rules to account for the theretofore never seen suck of the Oilers, so the Oilers model may be tough to replicate.
I told all of you that if anyone could bring his team back from down 3-0 it was McDavid and everyone laughed. It’s not over yet but most of you are on the bandwagon now!! 😂
I’m done being a panthers fan when they blow this series. They’ve put their fans through so much crap throughout the years and should be the next team to relocate. At least I’m also a kraken fan, so I don’t hate the NHL all together. Game 7 isn’t a “new game,” Oilers have all the momentum. Never gonna wear their gear in public ever again. Hopefully the kraken and oilers build a rivalry some point in time
I know it hurts now, but even if you lost game7, you'll end the season as the 2nd best team. It would be a colossal choke job, but you're team is still stacked going into the next season. You'll be back :)
@@Brian-uq4wu at the end of the day, the only team that is remembered is the winner. We will have lost two cup finals, and lots of the free agents won’t want to come back after this. Lots of the new fans will be lost, and we will eventually be sent into a rebuild and relocation that should’ve happened if Bill Zito didn’t save the Panthers. This next game determines the future of the Panthers franchise
@@colbykistner3393 But it's not over yet! And I don't think people will ditch a team so close to a cup. In fact, I bet players would love to come to a contender. No chance a 2nd place team, if you lose, has to go into a rebuild just because of a choke. I'm an oilers fan but I feel like I'm talking you off a ledge haha. If you lose, give it some time. It's going to be okay, friend :)
Panthers 🐆 GM Bill Zeto sure looked last night like one of the Supervillains 🦹♂️ that battle vs 🦇 Batman in the comicbooks/ movies 🎥 !!! He was giving Oilers fans that “Death Stare” @ the end of last night’s game!

A strong 3rd line that matches up against anybody is a godsend. Never saw this coming. Holland is making a lot of crow eaters.

If edmonton wins, the energy across the whole country is going to be wild. Going to be on par with when the raptors won the 2019 NBA finals
Shadow of the erdtree is absolutely fantastic so far. You go ahead and enjoy that, cant wait for monday!!! GO OILERS!!!!
! Finger, But hole..?
I’m not a fan of either team but this is such a fun series and no matter what happens in game 7 it has been so much fun 🤩
It deserves a double OT with 3 round shootout to decide the Victor.
It has been the craziest playoffs with the leafs choking that caused me so much stress and then Edmonton.s opponents against the kings Canucks and stars. All were very good teams.
Let’s go oilers let’s go!! If that PP could score it would help a lot, but I believe!!! In Austin we trust
And the.crazy thing is , is if Florida wins there's going to be people saying "yup, I told ya they threw those other games"😂

Don’t really need Vinny. He’s a big body, but he doesn’t help with his untimely penalties.

@@Brian-uq4wu When I was a kid back in the 1970's it was seen as way too early. Oh well, it is what it is. Ultimately Florida did not play with enough desperation.
@@Mr29roses I think I get what you're saying. It seems like most teams pull at 2min or less if they are down by 1. But, they pull much earlier if they need 2. I'm sure coaches look at stats to decide this
You didn’t say they would get swept but you did say they were gonna lose the series
I'm an Oilers fan but Game 5 was stolen by the refs for Edmonton. Worst calls ever, the first one called was on Barkov for nothingness because he was about to score a goal. The next one because Nikola was boxing out an Edmonton player, of which was NOT a penalty at all. They called it just because the Edmonton guy fell down...apparently, it's a mystery. Then Tkachuk was seriously tripped bad and they call embellishment on Tkachuk. Then Okposo slightly had a soft touch near the Edmontons players hand and they called a slash on something not even close to a slash. The refs have been one-sided, for Edmonton, in every game. Panthers game 6 are worried about playing their game because the refs are disgusting. Rigged. Bad karma on Edmonton
The "florida hasn't haven't given up 4 games in a row, so it's not likely to happen" argument does not work because they have already lost 3. The odds are different than 3 games ago.
It's like saying the odds of a team scoring 10 goals is astronomical, but the team currently has 9 goals with half the game left. So odds now different.
I realize it's 82 games plus the playoffs and these players are creatures of habit. That being said, watching the game FL is predictable when in the O zone wanting to just cycle the puck. Watch EDM throughout the game, they just anticipate the cycle game, aka take the step to the boards before the puck goes there. FL, IMO needs to change this and take it to the net or just put shots towards Skinner. I would also like to see different dump in's. Sometimes put the shot/dump in towards Skinner. Try to get O zone face offs or a mistake by Skinner. Again the predictability of FL on the the dump raps have the Oilers D men below the dots ready for that. Lastly, I would like to see the PP go to a 3rd/4th line mentality aka outwork the PK and keep it simple. No fancy plays and have a shooting mentality. All in game 7. FL won 3 games, no reason a 4th cant be won
I don’t see a world where you guys don’t win this game 7. Florida with the biggest choke in nhl history. BACK TO BACK finals
Cats will close this out. Y’all will blame Bettman
Its hard to watch yr show cause yr far behind just wondering why that is.
Im not sure florida losses this final, they will win, 2-1 florida
The panthers will win game 7
like they won game 4, 5 and 6 !
@@heeelion134 I hate to be the bearer of bad news.But I told you so. 🤣 Hey, but don't worry, you have next year.
Oilers won and their top player didn't get a point... thats *bad* news for the Panthers.
And the Panthers top players were on the ice when the Oilers depth players were scoring. Bennett -4, Barkov -2 Tkachuk -3 and so on!
The unprecedented suck of the Oilers, something never seen before in over 100 years of league history, may finally pay off! Other organizations are sure to follow being the worst team in the league for multiple years to get 4 1st overall picks and a 3rd overall in 5 years.
Unfortunately, the NHL had to change draft rules to account for the theretofore never seen suck of the Oilers, so the Oilers model may be tough to replicate.
The crying never stops.
I told all of you that if anyone could bring his team back from down 3-0 it was McDavid and everyone laughed. It’s not over yet but most of you are on the bandwagon now!! 😂
I’m done being a panthers fan when they blow this series. They’ve put their fans through so much crap throughout the years and should be the next team to relocate. At least I’m also a kraken fan, so I don’t hate the NHL all together. Game 7 isn’t a “new game,” Oilers have all the momentum. Never gonna wear their gear in public ever again. Hopefully the kraken and oilers build a rivalry some point in time
I know it hurts now, but even if you lost game7, you'll end the season as the 2nd best team. It would be a colossal choke job, but you're team is still stacked going into the next season. You'll be back :)
@@Brian-uq4wu at the end of the day, the only team that is remembered is the winner. We will have lost two cup finals, and lots of the free agents won’t want to come back after this. Lots of the new fans will be lost, and we will eventually be sent into a rebuild and relocation that should’ve happened if Bill Zito didn’t save the Panthers. This next game determines the future of the Panthers franchise
@@colbykistner3393 But it's not over yet! And I don't think people will ditch a team so close to a cup. In fact, I bet players would love to come to a contender. No chance a 2nd place team, if you lose, has to go into a rebuild just because of a choke.
I'm an oilers fan but I feel like I'm talking you off a ledge haha. If you lose, give it some time. It's going to be okay, friend :)
Panthers 🐆 GM Bill Zeto sure looked last night like one of the Supervillains 🦹♂️ that battle vs 🦇 Batman in the comicbooks/ movies 🎥 !!! He was giving Oilers fans that “Death Stare” @ the end of last night’s game!
