    We'll know a lot about the Eastern Conference Finals after tonight … must win for Carolina. If they don't win tonight there's a good chance that they get swept.

    Dallas had a 5 goal 3rd period tonight to flip things on Edmonton that included 3 PP goals to start the period. As I noted in my preview the margins between these teams are small and special teams would play a big factor in how things play out. I wouldn't say that Jake Oettinger was great in goal last night for Dallas but he held firm when needed. In contrast, Stuart Skinner melted down in the 3rd and frankly probably could have had a couple of those goals. I wouldn't say Game 2 is a must win for Edmonton but it's approaching one as losing Game 2 eliminates any margin for error going forward.

    Jamie Benn is still a fake tuff guy pussy and the Stars are still well documented choke (on cock) artists

    probably just like how Roope Hintz faked the chop slash by Darnell Nurse

    I like Hintz. Benn and Marchment are rat fucks.

    Stanley Cup Preview

    Since @PurpleJ likes rats this will be a series for him

    Skill wise Edmonton is going to carry the day with McJesus and Draisaitl.

    Florida should have the edge on D and in net and we'll see how effective Edmonton's D can be packing it in in front of the net against a team in Florida that has no problem barging their way through unlike the pussies from Dallas (still pissed at that series).

    There's an edge to Edmonton that we'll likely find out within the first 2 games whether or not they can stand up to and take the fight directly to Florida.

    Typically in Stanley Cup Finals rematches it is not uncommon for the team that lost the 1st Finals to rebound and win the 2nd Finals … the most recent example being Pittsburgh/Detroit in 2008 and 2009.

    I like Edmonton in 7 games

    I think the series hinges on whether Skinner shows up in net. Florida is a deeper and more talented team, although Edmonton has the better top line talent.

    My heart says Edmonton, but my head says Florida. Panthers in 6.

    And yes, both teams have plenty of rats on the rosters.
