Yeah. The games are not treated the same as a regular season game move on to the next type situation.

A lot of different variables at play. The Oilers know they can’t lose another game or it’s over. The Panthers know they just need a win. That can play into the psyche of a person.

I think it’s already made a big difference in this series. I don’t think anyone thought this was going to be a sweep and the Panthers coming out to a 3-0 lead probably shocked everyone involved.

I think that’s played a role into them not being able to close this out. They probably thought it would be easy, or just score a goal and Bob steals it. They have been humbled twice now.

There is a reason 3-0 series leads rarely lead to a come back. This will be no different.

Florida will win the Stanley Cup tomorrow.
