Darn. Well, good luck to them again, I guess. βπ»
LETS GET IT BABY π βοΈ
these (mostly Canadian) players & coaches must LOVE the Florida sun, judging by the Bolts & Cats' success β
Any ideas why the coaches didn't take part in the handshake line?
Congrats to two bandwagon fanbases (since 2020) watching their teams battle it out for their cup final appearance.
To call these last two ECFs boring would be an understatement.
That trophy taunting them daring the Panthets to pick it up.
Panthers: oh no you dont! You stay sitting right there and like it!
I must admit I didn't see this coming at the beginning of the series, but Florida was the better team.
LETS GO DALLAS
Letβs go South Florida home team β€οΈποΈποΈ
My hometown Florida Panthers are in Stanley Cup Finals again. Go Cats!
WE HATE FLORIDA! Worst franchise in the NHL!
Dirty players, can't win a game without the refs helping out.
WE HATE FLORIDA!
Π‘Π°ΡΠ° ΠΠ°ΡΠΊΠΎΠ²- the NHL SUPER STAR!!!!ππππ
As a panther fun oilers will cook as π
Well now I hope they win the cup even though I canβt stand Marchand
What a play by Barkov outstanding πͺ
Happy Bettman.
The only reason there in the finals is because there too dirty
The first dynasty of the panther 3 times in final if they can win it all
A team from the sunshine state winning the eastern conference for the 6th year in a row. Like cmon, let some other states/provinces have a chance!
IΒ΄m Rangers Fan but Congratulations great Teams ππthank you for the series next year see you
Hurricanes went 9-6 in the playoffs…. Thats a good football season for most teams.
Orlov contributed directly or indirectly to 5 goals on his own, never seen a player contribute that much to the other team in a playoff series
Bobrovsky cool as a cucumber in that last barrage. Mental toughness kicks in.
Bennett the dirty player and the borrowed rat from Boston appalling what the NHL has come too and should be the leafs celebrating ,hopefully you face the best player in the world just hope Bennett does not try to hurt him to win another dirty cup
I remember 2023 when we lost to Vegas look at us now hope we can win this series again Go Cats
Both Edmonton and Florida general managers look like brothers kinda. ππ

Barkov could have taken the shot. He passed it instead. Brilliant.
πi just farted π……
GO CATS, GO!!!!!!!!! SO PROUD OF MY TEAM!!!!!!!!
As a Florida native, I was excited for the run Tampa Bay had and definitely excited to watch what the Panthers are doing now. Great stuff.
OILERS to Cats…..here kitty kitty kitty….Oil in 5.
Let's set the record straight. On the above header, it was not Barkov's winning goal it was Verhaeghe's winning goal. There.
