  1. I know either way i get a win. As an aussie flames fan.. If florida wins then chuky bennet n greer lift it over the oilers. On the other hand im a flams fan so i want to cup in alberta..

  2. Canes fan: I’m pulling for the Oilers mainly because I like to see the cup going to different teams. Dynasties are cool in their own way, but I like to see the glory passed around. McJesus winning the cup would be an emotional moment for Oiler fans. And as for Canadian hockey fans, bringing the cup home is a point of great pride. Personally, I was hoping for a rematch between the Canes and Oilers, but that wasn’t in the cards. Our retooling is still in progress and we aren’t at that level—yet! Maybe next year. So Go Oilers. Best wishes from Raleigh.

  3. Come on Mr. Psychology what did the Oilers ever do to you?? you just jinxed them, on behalf of the Panthers, thank you very much!

  4. aint no one even watching…nhl ratings are absolute trash
    for instance tnt got 190k people watching playoff game ….f1 gained 90 million fans last year alone

  5. All I know is that this 5-day delay snuffed out my anticipation for the start of this Cup Final.

  6. Marchand will be the difference this season for Florida. But Edmonton is looking different & better.

  7. Oilers in 6. Only pick I got wrong this year was canes-panthers. But I was also unaware of exactly how bad the canes ECF record was

  8. The Panthers are straight up beating up goalies in every round and they call that hockey how disgusting
    I don't think they have actual skill they bully and frustrate the opposing team by doing illegal stuff that go uncalled and then after other teams get rattled they jump on the opportunities

  9. Just wondering how all of these dyed in the wool hockey fans analyze the game and no one mentions McDavid touching the trophy. Pretty sure that's the only factor that matters! Panthers in 5.

  10. I hope Paul Maurice doesn't come on the ice hold and take a picture with the cup. After all, tt's the players out there who give it their all right?

  11. X factor for each team will be Nugent Hopkins for the Oilers he has to have a monster Conn Smythe performance if Florida shuts down Edmonton's top weapons. And for the Oilers it's Skinner they'll live or die depending on which one shows up.

  12. Bennett, Tkachuk, Ekblad, and even Marchant will deliberately attempt to injure to win. Let's see if Nurse, Kane, and Frederic step up when needed.

  13. Cats third line is the X-Factor.
    They are a top line for many teams in the NHL, and Lundell is shockingly underrated by many self-professed knowledgeable hockey fans.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the Barkov line starts against the McDavid line, but then it switches to the Lundell line against McDavid's line.
    I think they can do as much to slow McDavid's line as the Cat's first line (which is to say, not a whole lot) – and this frees up Barkov to run roughshod over the Oilers second and third lines.

    Cats in 7!

  14. I enjoyed the strategy breakdown. Haven't seen that in a broadcast environment before. I'm guessing that must be a hockey night in Canada thing.

  15. Sneaky x-factor pick for the Oilers is Podkolzin – been a consistent grinder the whole playoffs but is showing up even more in the finals. In game 1 he had the beautiful heads-up drop pass to screen play on the Arvidsson goal, then almost got the game winner late in the third with a strong drive to the net. I hope to see a clutch goal from him in the series!

  16. After the first game, we now see that Oilers forecheck can trap the Panthers in their zone for two periods in a row. And that Edmonton players are so talented that they win almost every battle along the boards.
