I missed the game but very happy about the outcome. Nice hit by dirt bag Bennett.

Caught the 3rd period. Florida’s stifling, checking, big boy hockey was pretty impressive.

Physically out matched as well Oilers need to stick to what got them this far or it’s gonna be a short series.

I'd expect we see Florida marching to the penalty box big time tonight. The Florida PK is very good but I thought Edmonton actually was moving the puck pretty well on the PP and had some pretty glorious chances. Bob is playing lights out but I don't think they can keep that PP off the board night after night.
League will want at least a 6 gamer here so refs will take it over and make sure we come away with the split out of Florida lol.

Pierre Lebrun talked with 17 NHL coaches and 16 team executives about who they thought would win the Stanley Cup and 29 said Florida and only 4 said Edmonton.

No Kane at practice, which is normal. One thing, source tells me Kane never (or very seldom) sat on the bench in Game 1. Whatever his injury, sitting doesn’t work for him. He’s walking the line between courageous and ineffective, 1 pt in 8 games.

Really didn't look like the Oilers had any answer last night. We know better than anyone though that being down 0-2 in the Cup Final doesn't mean it's over!

I'm not sure EDM has an answer for FLA's depth and edge. You'd think at some point, the horseshoe is going to fall out of Bob's ass, but I thought that about TT in 2011. If this series goes 5, or even 6, I will be shocked.

One other thought, on the Draisaitl hit on Barkov. The latter seems like one of the few, non shit bags on FLA and is also a great player...buuuut....FLA has been getting away with hits like that all playoff long. I will feel bad for Barkov himself if he's unable to play, but I have no sympathy for most of the rest of the team. And how does the league handle this? Both he and Draisaitl are premier players and very important to their respective teams. The hit may not have been intentional (for the record, I think it was, he left his feet for fuck's sake), but it was certainly high with principle point of contact being the head. Seems to me like that fits all the criteria for some kind of punitive action. It will be interesting to see how DOPS handles this one.

Surprised it was Draisaitl & not Kane or Nurse? After Bennett's punch to Marchy they should NOT be any more on this. he got 2 min, more then shit bag Bennett!

Yeah, I can't recall Draisaitl every doing anything shady, that I am aware of anyway.

Odds not in the Oilers favor! Teams facing a 2-0 deficit in the championship series have come back to win just five times in 54 attempts.
Teams to lose the first 2 games of a Stanley Cup Final but come back to eventually win the series:
Bruins (2011 against the Canucks) Penguins (2009 against the Red Wings) Canadiens (1971 against the Blackhawks) Canadiens (1966 vs the Red Wings) Maple Leafs (1942 vs the Red Wings)

I really think Draisaitl needs to get at least one game for that hit on Barkov. If Barkov can’t come back it changes everything. I don’t believe that a dirty play can go unchecked when it can could easily change the outcome of a series. If there’s no suspension and Barkov is out for any amount of time I’d think the two Oiler star forwards should keep their heads up. Fuck the Oilers!!

It's just funny to me that Luostarinen goes down and lays there as if he blew his knee and they give a major and review it (then Luostarinen is out there next shift). Then Barkov takes a hit to the head on a charge and they don't call a 5 so they can review that one and take a second look. Perhaps Barkov should have fallen down and laid there motionless to get the call lol.

Yeah & I saw Lou pick his head up look over the the scrum, saw official's then put his head back down, played the official's like a drum! That hit by Drai was rare for him yet Bennett is a KNOWN dirty player/offender!! Fuck the Panthers one of the dirtiest cheap shot teams out there! I'm NO way an Oilers fan BUT I am a Panther's hater!
