Not really. The Oilers can't lose another game. The Panthers can multiple times.

Dude, it’s a best of seven. Oilers are halfway through winning one. It changes nothing except the gets the big names off the #### list on the stat line afterwards. If the oil take game 6, that changes everything. Until then, the Panthers are still one win away from ending it and the oil are do or die.

Hope you’re right but VAN, DAL …. This playoff has not followed the script. Just sayin.

[CedarMeter]

This is stupid. Learn from it and kick the #### out of them next game. The Edmonton media are going to be so insufferable for the next couple of days. “We got them, we figured them out and this series is ours”. Brutal. I can handle a loss but not a #### kicking. Makes me mad.

[WhiteTiger]

C'mon Panthers. Get it all out of your system this game...then beat the tar out of them on home ice on Tues (when I'll be watching from my fave wings place)

100% 5 on 3.

Refs nailed that.

Absolutely, you don't go after stars. Period.

You can hate on the Oilers and still think that's wrong.

That garbage has no place in hockey.

Lol what? So if it wasn't a star it's okay? What a stupid take.

This is just an act like Cecil is doing, right?

That gives Florida lots of chances to take McHobo’s head off while he’s needlessly on the ice for stat padding…

Lol, what? The series will be 3-1 with the Panthers still firmly in the driver’s seat. All of the pressure is still on Edmonton.

Now if the Oilers somehow come back and take the series to 7 games, then yea, the pressure would definitely switch to Florida at that point.

Nope. If you want to take a couple Oilers to make yourself feel better, then give double minors to 19&9. They were BY FAR the most active in that scrum.

Refs nailed it.

Well you still can't put anyone in a headlock and repeatedly punch them in the head no matter who it is. Tkachuk deserved the call every day of the week.

As for the league protecting their stars, I don't go to a game to watch Trevor Lewis battling against Zack MacEwan, of course the business of the NHL wants to protect the players who make them millions of dollars.

“He wasn’t in the scrum!”

Meanwhile I watched him enter the scrum and try to put Tkachuk in a headlock lol.

Edmonton has the weirdest fans.

[McG]

Los panteros are going to get a split here worst case.

I see a terrible call on nurse starting this whole thing off. Refereeing has been awful. Case in point…how was that a 5 on 3 ever for a scrum?

Now we have one team that’s not really trying and the other thinking it’s game 7.

Tkachuk didn't go after Hyman.

[midniteowl]

Did the Losers tied the series tonight? Why would the pressure all on the Panthers?

Agreed. Isn’t barkov a star? Pissy went after him…

[DeluxeMoustache]

Gentleman’s sweep, it’s called, when you’re up 3-0 and win in 5

If Florida won tonight they’d have to party in Edmonton. Blecchh

During a scrum? Must have missed that.

That. Is an excellent point!
