Does Florida have some crippling injuries to their stars? I’d bet on it. But Edmonton has a historically good PP, PK, quite possibly the best performance by a forward in nhl playoff history (mcdavid) and one of the best performances by a defencemen in nhl playoff history (Bouchard). Skinner has also proven he’s a premier nhl starter.
I don’t see any scenario where Florida can regroup and regain momentum to overcome the oilers onslaught. Their stars are firing on all cylinders, their depth players are scoring key goals and they’re playing with more confidence than I’ve ever seen. And admittedly with a fairly weak roster outside the top 3 or 4 players. Knoblauch is the best move the Oilers organization has made in a decade. In hindsight, their slow start, which got blobfish fired, was the catalyst that resulted in a historic cup win.
This will go down as inarguably the greatest comeback in nhl history and one of the greatest, if not the greatest, comebacks in the history of sports.
