2-1 FL

The first two games were very close, with EDM pushing both games to OT. There goes my first prediction, only one OT in the series. EDM won the first, FL the second in double OT. FL ran over them in game 3, 6-1.

It was weird. After FL scored one minute into the game, EDM lost their mind. FL had all the confidence, EDM none. A conga line of stupid penalties, EDM couldn’t get any traction.

So, what happened? FL played like FL, and EDM didn’t play like EDM. It’s up to the Oilers to match the Panthers’ skill, or they will not win. They had to fight tooth and nail to push the first two games to OT, not FL. The odds of FL faltering are slim. That puts all of the pressure on EDM.
