Sean Maloughney: Oilers vs Panthers Stanley Cup Finals Game 7

So this is a must win game again?

Is the Captain not necessarily the best player in the game but the one that gets the best out of each player and leads them?

No pressure, right?!?

Probably less pressure than the Panther's will experience.
You know - choking away a 3 game lead...

News flash: Gretzky and Messier are rooting for the Oilers, There is no surprise there.

Game 7 is going OT.

The lack of overtime this playoffs is a little crazy lol but would be a fitting way to end it, but way too stressful for me. A McDavid overtime goal would be the perfect way to end it, but I’m hoping more of a game 5 last year and we score 4-5 goals in the first two periods.

Can we also agree to just ignore all the would be trolls who are gonna come in here and try and bring us down, especially if we lose. Just don’t even reply to them. Today should be all about positivity win or lose, losing would be heart breaking sure but we should be happy with the season we got.

Jeff Marek believes this would be the greatest comeback not just in hockey but in all of sports if the Oil can pull this off tonight.

I think you guys can get this done!

I do like the Cats though too and think with the other finals loses/no franchise cups they are deserving as well...

What’s the worst case scenario, Cats tie it with less then minute left and then Oil lose in OT?

I wouldn't be happy. Cup or bust.

Don't ever forget, Eklund said the NHL playoffs were flawed because the Oilers were such an undeserving SCF team when the Panthers went up 3-0.

Regardless of what happens, McDavid deserves the CS and the Oilers are plenty deserving of being a SCF team. Excellent season overall.

GO OILERS GO!

Bring Stanley home.

Not even comeback, I honestly think this could just be one of the greatest sporting moments period.

I hope the Cats get it done. Note.. Mcdavid is extremely talented.

Downtown E town already going off. Let’s go!!!

Let's go Oilers ! Bring it home and end the streak

Git 'er done Oil Country!!

*deep breath*
Well here we go

Off the post - so close.

Oilers have real problems along the boards. They need to win more of those puck battles.

How we holding up? 😬

Oil sloppy in the D zone. Gotta clean it up lucky to be 1-1.

On the boards it's like they are handling a hot potato, or even a live grenade.

WTF did the Oilers back up so much????
They were inviting the Panther to walk in and score.
