Stanley Cup: Florida Panthers [ATL1] vs Edmonton Oilers [PAC2] - Florida wins 4-3

[stemit14]

I guess that means McDavid’s head is a free target for elbows in this series. Sweep the leg Florida.

They can drop elbows on him pro wrestling style when he dives

[trackercowe]

All Oilers fans are blaming the ref and the league. Some of them saying it's fixed and the "worst reffing they have ever seen". How can they be so blind? Absolutely flabbergasted with how idiotic they are.

I've taken the liberty of translating this using the Sportsnet Style Guide.

This is what happens when you get fed propaganda 24/7

It's because they know that the only way the Oilers can win is with enough power plays.

[Torture]

As much as I want Florida to make a big stink about this and point out what a #### Draisaitl is, you have to respect how focused they are on winning the series.

Best way to get revenge isn't to cry about it in the media or goon it up, it's to beat them up on the scoresheet and take the series. They are so dialed in.

[Dogbert]

Greg Wyshynski's latest tweet says that he thinks that Barkov's status for Game 3 will determine whether Draisaitl gets a fine or a suspension, and that he currently believes there will be no suspension - seems like an indication that Barkov will play on Thursday.

[DiracSpike]

I'm trying to imagine the reaction if Tkachuk hit McDavid directly in the jaw with a flying elbow causing him to leave the game and be doubtful for game 3. The entire city of Edmonton would be burning down this morning.

He should say "I'm not the Oilers, my feelings don't matter."

[dino7c]

Barkov will play, they were obviously holding out for a suspension...I don't blame them

[devo22]

they were never going to suspend a superstar in the SC Finals. Disappointing, but this was always going to be the outcome.

only supplemental discipline:

guess that also answers the old question how much your nuts are worth. It's $1,106.77 each, you're welcome.

Edmonton know that their best chance is on the power play, so they try and drag Florida into the scrap and hope someone does something dumb.

Best thing for the panthers to do is keep on as they are, don't get involved, trust your depth and systems and finish the job. Series isn't over yet.

If needs be, take a number and let Lomberg or whoever respond in the first regular season game v the oilers next year.

[FlamesAreOne]

The NHL just gave the Panthers an enormous green light to cause havoc.

The NHL is a joke.

[TheIronMaiden]

It will be very interesting to see what Florida's reaction is.

I would suggest a fight to start the game and then to forget it.

Then I guess it's open season for FLA's stars to go after Draisaitl.

Not saying they should but knowing that group they probably will make sure that elbow doesn't go unanswered.

Luckily Edmonton Oilers are huge proponents of The Code.

I'm sure he will answer the bell.

To their idiotic fans, if Panthers get even 1 PP, the game is rigged.

Get a big lead and then run mcdavids head for the rest of the game
