The Panthers, once again, are our alcoholic father. We believed in them again-- and once again they're just gonna disappoint us.
The most Florida comment ever
@@wildcard9370Just like the Dolphins and the Marlins and the heat and the gators and the Seminoles and the canes
It isn't over. The Islanders forcing game 7 in the conference final had me doubting the Lightning. Not over until it's over. One more game to go, cats could still pull it off. They look kind of silly right now, but they could still pull it off.
@gary7181 it doesn't matter to me lol. I'm a Lightning fan. I'm just glad I got to watch one more game, since I'll be at work for game 7 Monday night.
I appreciate how much you guys love hockey down in Florida. You guys are an amazing team and I know things are tough right now, but there is one more game at home no matter who I route for (and I'm an old oilers fan), I feel bad for whoever doesn't win. Cause truth is - players & fans put 100% every night and it's an emotional roller coaster but despite teams being near evenly matched, only one can take the cup. I also think if Florida wins, it's not only great still for Edmonton cause they kept their dignity and tied the series and got Canada invested in returning the cup to Canada, but it's good for the sport to as Florida will probably be even more invested in enjoying hockey.
Edmontonian and 40 year Oilers fan here. I just found your channel last night but have watched a few of your videos now. Haven't seen this one yet though but it's playing now. I admire your passion and your commitment to this channel. I'm subbed now and will continue to follow regardless of Monday's outcome.
Same here. Look forward to your content next year.
This broke my heart. As an Oilers fan, I've had my heart broken so many times. I know that feeling. But nothing is more heartbreaking than the loss of family. I wish you well and peace to you and Fluffy.
As a Canucks fan same here including this year
No Vezina Finalist Demko
No Boeser
An Injured Petey
Yet they still took Edm to 7 Games
6 Games by 1 Goal
Edm will win the Cup Tmrw night depending on how Bob plays
Was waiting for this video because you’re the only real Panthers Fan I know.. As a Rangers Fan, after being up 3-0, I was nauseous when Carolina made it 3-2.. so I can’t imagine what you’re feeling right now..
Sorry to hear about your pup.. I’ve been through it twice & I know how heartbreaking it is.. Good Luck w/ everything.
I love this comment. I’ve always felt a level of connection to hockey fans, as the minority sport in the USA, and I relate to the nausea of being up 2 and losing 2 in a row, but this is a whole new level of nausea.. it’s ruining bobrovsky run
@@joecataneo6676 My Cousins last name is Cataneo lol
There was NO response from this team in the last two games. NONE!
Ya, I have to say, as an outsider that isn't cheering for either team, it was shocking to see how little push back the Panthers have given in the last 3 games. They are an entirely different team than the previous 3 rounds and 3 games.
I couldn’t agree more with your frustration. When I was 23, my wife and I bought into this new sport coming to Miami. I knew little about ice hockey. I attended the workshops the team held to teach new fans the game, and the hype events. I spent my hard earned money to buy season tickets for the inaugural year. I didn’t have great seats but I was there. I was 100% on fire for the team. Each year, I upgraded my seats, spending more and more. Then 1996 came. What a season! My favorite players were Paul Laus and Billy Lindsay. I had authentic jerseys for both. That season was so electric - but I didn’t know what I was witnessing. I kind of thought this was the norm. I went to game 4 of the Cup as we got swept. I was crushed… but I thought “we’ll get them next year!”
Goddamn does “next year” turn into a long time! We were the definition of mediocre (at best). I watched as we traded my favorite players away and as new faces came in. I bought the merch and went to games until I moved out of state. Even then, every game in Detroit (moved to Kalamazoo) and Chicago, I was there, rooting for my Panthers! God it was painful to be laughed at by hockey fans.
I now live in Vancouver, WA but I still go to every Panther game I can; against Kraken, Detroit, Chicago and random games during the year. I pay for NHL Center Ice so I can watch every Panther game, which I do! I tape them when I’m working.
I went to Vegas for Stanley Cup game 2 and endured watching us play like a team that was out of gas. I was just so happy to finally be a relevant team again. This season, I actually flew back home to Ft Lauderdale to see several games, including game 5 of the Cup.
I say all of this to lay the foundation that I am NOT a new fan jumping on the bandwagon. I feel your words like they are my own. Diehard fans, who have been thru so much shit with this team, we deserve better than the way this is going down.
I’ve never seen a complete turnaround like this; it was two weeks ago that we were on cloud 9 as we were shocking everyone in the NHL world with a 3-0 lead. All we needed was one more. But you could feel the winds of change even then; we were winning games we didn’t really fully control. We got lucky. This series could easily be over already.
Panthers fans went from a place where we thought finally, we would be able to see our team raise the cup. Finally, all the suffering as a fan was worth it. One more game to win and my bucket list would have an item removed.
It seems like this isn’t meant to be. In two weeks, we went from being such a confident group to guys that look defeated and deflated. They don’t even know what to say. No words. Only Maurice has banter for us. Sometimes it’s funny. He has made me feel better at times, the way he downplays the disaster around us. But I’m 100% with you; I’m done with the bullshit cutesy comments. I’m so angry at the lack of adjustments and seriousness about getting back on track. Now Bob looks broken… we should have started Stolarz tonight!!
I have no choice but to watch this shit show completely burn down. If they win,,,, I feel like they have tarnished their reputation with how they gave up 3 games. Trust me, I’ll still take the Cup but how we win does mean something.
You aren’t alone. I understand the passion for this team and the frustration as we watch opportunities slip by. Thanks for the video and good luck with the dog…🙏❤️⛸️🏒🥅
Thanks Hawk I appreciate all of that. Worst part for me is I have brought both my sons along for the ride, and even Kyle is at a point of having to hold in his massive frustration so we don't upset the dog. I obviously hope we win, but I am thankful that by Tuesday morning it will all be over. Dog woke up today and could still walk( barely) but went potty and ate, is resting comfortably, so I will continue to give him time to go on his own. Best case is they win the cup Monday night and he doesn't wake up Tuesday morning. Just brutal, but I would take that ending.
I've only been watching a short time but it definitely sucks you in fast and furious. I feel like even if they won, it's a bittersweet win just because for me, I'm so deflated already that I don't feel like I could really enjoy it anymore. At least Verheage admitted that the Oilers are more hungry than them and Kuli you can tell is just over it. Barky too. Their interviews to me are showing more of what we're seeing. The devastation. They had all the fans, hype, and focus according them since training camp, and yet they are coming up short. It's like if ya'll can't do it with these guys this year, is it ever gonna happen? I hope they pull it out but it doesn't look like they're actually trying to change anything of their play. The Oilers changed a little after game 3. I don't think the Cats did. Fingers crossed for Monday but I'm not confident. For me my anxiety is pretty high and I don't handle this type of stuff well so mentally it's hard for me even though it is just a game and doesn't change my life really. I really thought they were gonna take this.
@@Itsmeoverhere I genuinely feel like if they blow game 7, Zito will have no choice but to blow this thing up, if for no other reason other than to take the bad taste away (as best he can). I do not know how you roster the same team next year if you basically did EXACTLY what you set out to do at the end of last season's cup loss and then choked at the very end and missed out on all you had right in your grasp. I don't know how they can say that the Oilers are "more hungry".... That is shameful. I see a very long and dark offseason for the Panthers if they cant find a way to muster ONE more win.
@@flyingfluffyhockey I've had to put down two German Shepherds over my life time and unless you are in that position to have to make that decision, you never really can appreciate how hard it is. Animals have a truly special way of making life worth living. I've been blessed to have a few pets like Fluffy is to you; animals that take the pains of life and make them more tolerable. I'm sorry that you are having to go through this and sadly, the Panthers are just adding to the pain. I hope for all of us fans, new and old,,, the Panthers wake up and come back and find a way to win. Best of luck with Fluffy and for the fragile Panther fan who is hanging on game 7. It is hard to quantify how much this game means to all of us who have endured 25 seasons of subpar mediocrity with exception to a few years where the team teased fans with the possibility of turning the corner. I hope Tuesday morning 'best case' comes to fruition.
Relax. I had to wait almost 46 years for the Kings to win the prize after many frustrating seasons, including stickgate (93). I hope they beat Edmonton though.
If we lose on Monday, we’ll become a friggin’ meme.
God I hope we win.
The Panthers continue to disappoint. This team's ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory is insane.
There has been nothing that has shown me we can win next game. This could kill the franchise and no one in the locker room is losing their shit. I’ve been a fan my whole life, been to 50+ games, I dealt with decades of losing seasons. But this is just sad. Not even making the games interesting, just the same excuses and mistakes with no change in sight. We deserve better than this from our team
Doubtful this will kill the franchise! You could still win it mate! I am an oilers fan, I am nervous as all hell! You guys are good and on home ice. You have to lose some, to win some! Best of luck!
@@SMC01fultrust me it will if they blow it no one will care for this team aside from the hardcore fans and even some of those might lose faith.I honestly see no way panthers win this unless a miracle happens and oilers forget how to ppay and panthers remember how to play other than that its over.
Paul Maurice NEEDS to get under their skin, and his own skin for that matter. That locker room looked DEAD. They need the same belief that the Oilers had going into game 4 and right now they look like they already lost the cup. GET ANGRY GET HUNGRY!! Get your heads out of your asses, this is the STANLEY CUP FUCKIN FINALS!!!
As a Canucks fan, I feel your pain. We were up 3-2 on them and going into game 7, the Oilers just looked like the better team. Hard to lose when you are up but that's why hockey is so crazy!
The coach says everything is fine. What's the complaint?
I agree. A loss could break this team in South Florida.
Canes fan here. I know this is rough. I tie sports into my personal life as well so I know how all that feels. Wishing you the best with Fluffy and your family. Not a fan of either team but wishing for the best outcome. As a solid fan you are, you deserve to see a Cup 👍🏽
For context, we got our doors blown off in Game 6 in Edmonton in 2006 and managed to eke out Game 7 at home. It’s nerve-wrecking but they can do it. Hang in there.
Thank you!!!!
The Panthers need more support from their fanbase than ever before. I don´t know what it would help if Maurice lost his calm and showed publicly that he´s desperate. Zito throwing a water bottle shows passion but it doesn´t fix anything. I think it´s totally inexcusable for the fanbase to have a funeral for their team before the season is over. The team can´t think that they are going to humiliate themselves in the worst possible hockey way. They have to focus on the possibility. Thinking about the next game as Game Seven gets the thoughts to the possibilty of reverse sweep, but thinking of the next game as an unique chance on home ice, like a hockey Super Bowl, puts things in right perspective. We have to remember that also the Oilers are going to feel pressure now. If they lose, their remarkable comeback from 0-3 to 3-3 will be worth absolutely nothing. The Panthers are in a difficult position but they are not in an impossible position. I think that it´s crucial to get the first goal in the next game and light the home arena on fire. Alternatively they have to play very safe zero-zero for as long as possible and capitalize on some mistake that Kulak, Ceci or Nurse will do sooner or later. The momentum has changed once in this series. It can change once again.
Wrong, the Oilers comeback whether they win or lose means everything because they made it a series when they should have been swept, plus, Oilers have had adversity being 31st place and being down against Vancouver and Dallas, Panthers havent had that adversity yet. Panthers have all the pressure, its their game to lose. It is an absolute miracle that the Oilers are where they are right now, cant say the same for the Panthers.
@@pursuitoftruth6774 I both agree and disagree with you. It´s absolutely true that the Oilers have made this a historical series no matter how it ends. On the other hand if they lose, it might be the closest this franchise ever comes winning a Stanley Cup. Imagine if McDavid never gets his Cup. To be fair I honestly don´t think that this Panthers franchise would bounce back from a loss in Game Seven either. It´s the same outcome for both team franchises but for different reasons. The Oilers are overachieving at the moment with their rookie head coach. The Oilers will never be frontrunners for the Cup, but this year they could ride on their momentum. The Panthers have another problem. They have all the right pieces to win right now and if they do, they might win again. But if they lose, I don´t see how they can find any confidence to win in the future when they´ve lost two years in the row in the Finals. Sure McDavid could have another hot streak with his team when he´s 35 or something and he could have his late Cup in the same way as let´s say Teemu Selänne and Aleksander Ovetshkin, but in any case he doesn´t get many opportunities. Of course the same goes for Draisatl and everybody else from the Oilers, but If the best player in the world never wins the Cup, is he still the best player?
Monday will be either the Greatest day in Panther history or the Worst. If they lose this, you might have to blow this up.
this is life for a south florida sports fan
Unfortunately
Lol. Try being a Minnesota sports fan😅
lol or an Ottawa sports fan where our few pro teams don’t believe in making playoffs.
What we saw last night is inexcusable. The lack of energy and mental lapses by our defense was offensive. Almost looks like we are throwing the game
They can kiss that 25%-30% attendance increase goodbye if they lose game 7 *UPDATE* THEY WILL NOT LOSE THE ATTENDANCE! GO CATS!!!
Hell they can kiss any attendance goodbye period since everyone will be to embarrased to go.
The Panthers will lose a lot of new fans if they blow this
There won’t be a fanbase anymore, why would there be….
They'll be lucky if the team is still in Florida in 5 years.
Lol Fairweather fans never stick around when times get tough
I feel for Zito. He did everything right. Can we really blame him that the players he pays to play hockey don’t actually really want to be champions?
That being said, it’s not over till it’s over. I will continue to say we’re winning the cup until it’s impossible to do so anymore.
His eyes were popping out of his head he did some good acting looked like he was on drugs and lost a 50 million dollar bet
@@Frozenducklinglooks like roid rage lmao
Yes we can. He should have brought back Duclair and his speed and instead took Kyle a bum journey man. He could have gone all in and picked up another defenseman like dumba.
Zito needs to tear into these guys
@@JoshuaMultack-dw6qdokposo was great in the early 2 rounds in the rangers series he was shaky he only has been completely ineffective against oilers with their speed
They have regressed into the same team that mentally gives up, and gets bounced in round 1 by Tampa. This series loss will do intense damage to the franchise. If its not their cup this year, get ready for the 'Florida are the Coyotes 2.0' rhetoric to return.
If they lose it will single a rebuild and possibly Maurice resignation. I blame Reinhardt I blame chucky. Absent ghosts
If they lose on Monday my question is what is the excuse this time. Last year it was injuries but what is the excuse this year and yes i believe that if they lose the series that this could cost Paul Maurice his job. By the way I am sorry to hear about the situation about your dog and I that everything get better pertaining to that situation.
I'm really thinking it's over right now our top 2 goal scorers are looking like crap defense is bad and Bob is off the case
im a neutral, but don't think its over also.. just my gut feeling makes it feel like no way Oilers, too much history against turning a 3-0 into a 3-4.. not that my feeling matters, but everything screams Oilers win of course after the past 3 games.. but somehow think it will be Panthers after all. It's a cliche, but still every game starts at 0-0 again.
That's exactly how the Oilers felt in the 1st three games...
Florida is a text book example right now of a team with no confidence and afraid of losing.
I'm an Oilers fan and I think Florida is every bit as good as oilers, I think momentum has just switched and if panthers find their stride in time they could turn the tide.
Oilers fan here, I can see how emotional you are and with Fluffy too I almost hope florida wins for you 💔 Almost. But I was saying the same thing about Paul Maurice, all his interviews suggest that he is not willing to make the right changes, and that sentiment is spreading to his team as well. May the best team win on Monday
Just a neutral Blues fan here. Love the channel! No matter what happens Monday this has been an epic historic series and The Panthers have earned my respect.
Right now I would want Bill Zito and Tkachuk’s dad to talk to this team before game 7 and freaking say something. Honestly I’m glad I haven’t shelled money to see the Panthers live at the arena! So pricey to see losses like these for the past couple games.
Same thought-
Zito yes, but the elder Tkachuk needs to stay in his own era!
And talking about the passes, the first goal, Swaggy drills it right to the skates of Barkov when he was like 15 feet away and boom breakaway the other end. If Swaggy is really this injured and THIS much of a liability, just dont play him like Edmonton did with Kane, I mean dude cant even lift the puck off the ice to go top shelf and cant pass for his life. It's almost too late to do anything now; their whole mentality is like procrastinating work, "I'll finish it tomorrow, I got another day, oh crap, it's due today by 8. I can't do it anymore".
There's a laundry list of players gone bad, swaggy and reino have disappeared, Monty has been terrible, and can someone please tell me what the fuck Ekblad was doing last night ? That being said, it's 1 game at home for all the marbles, just win the game please
I felt great about the series up 3-0 and have kept my faith after losing games 4 and 5 but losing game 6 has cracked my faith on this team to pull it off. I still have hope they’ll win game 7 but this loss showed me they have no fight left. I hope to god they prove me wrong and have the game of a lifetime. Worst part is I know I’ll be putting on my jersey to sit in front of my tv to watch the greatest moment or the worst moment in team history. Go cats
Yes Maurice is borderline psychopathic....
Good day. New watcher here. The hockey part is entertaining but I’m writing about the pup.
My husky had similar problems and I had to call a mobile vet to put him down. I couldn’t watch him cry anymore and he was basically stuck on our front steps. I know your pain and I don’t want to see you suffer more than you and the dog need to. I wish you all the best.
yeah we are about there, might make the call today. Just brutal.
@@flyingfluffyhockey breaks my heart just thinking about it. My dog just couldn’t walk anymore at all and I was keeping him around for me but eventually there comes a time that you can’t bear to hear them suffer anymore.
You are in my prayers. I’m happy you have your son with you and are not alone with this decision. Bless you.
Hey man. Just a hockey fan looking for more content. Happy to have found your channel.
Been a fan of a team that has gone through some dark dark times. Just know that this isn’t dark times. Win or lose, the Panthers have given us great hockey all year long and they seem set up for a long time
They not going to let a small market team win the finals unless they can pull every penny out of this. I said that on my last comments when the series was 3-1. Now that they can't milk it any longer Florida can win but they want to promote Connor McDavid as a Tom Brady of the NHL. Im sure the skating in mud will finally go away for Florida in game 7.
Florida is playing so bad it’s hard to believe it’s real. I’m better off thinking it’s scripted
Yeah Disney lost out on so much money with the NBA Finals ending earlier than they wanted it to, but so many days between games doesn't help them either
I wonder how the Rangers didn't blow the 3-1 lead in 1994, and Florida has to look to Tampa from 2004
Video replay shows Calgary wins in 2004 digit
Who are 'THEY' precisely?, you're sounding like a conspiracy nut job.
I’m a Panthers fan but also a Falcons fan. I’ve seen what this kind of collapse looks like and how it affects the franchise and fanbase in general and honestly, it’s not good. It’s even worse for the Panthers since they are starting to build a fanbase right now. Lose this series and they will lose that fanbase. Much like the Falcons did. No one will show up to game and no one will be excited for upcoming seasons. And how? How do you get excited when your team was on the verge of winning their first championship and blew it. It makes it feel like no matter what they do, they will never obtain the ultimate prize.
Idk if I can get myself to watch game 7. It helps that I also have a hockey game that night and can play in that. I just, I can’t watch another one of my teams go through that again.
Brother if they choke this, you would be a fan of the chokiest teams in sports lmao You just need the Boston Bruins now. I hate this happens the Panthers cause i like them but im from Canada so lets go Oilers
I don't see this potential loss making the fans not become Cats fans. The Cats have won three Eastern Conference Finals in their history. I do believe in momentum, and I also do believe that it's destiny and the team of destiny isn't FLA, but EDM, and not because they haven't won it all since 1990, but Canada hasn't won it all in 1993, over 30 years. Finally EDM, with 1.5 million people, is a small market while FLA has over 6 million people in it's metro area, making FLA one of the larger hockey markets. A win from EDM would be a major boost for small markets such as EDM, CGY, WPG, and small markets here such as BUF.
The NHL has tried to force feed hockey into Sun Belt cities such as Atlanta and Phoenix with no success. IMHO, the Coyotes should've moved to Quebec, just because Quebec can and will support a team since ice hockey is Canada's pastime, but the league moved it to Utah, which is a more favorable climate for ice hockey than Phoenix. We'll see how successful Utah goes! But as for the FLA fanbase, if they lose, it's not going to severely affect the fan base to the point where the Cats have to move out of South FL. It will be painful, but South FL is a major market, and keeping a team in South FL means big bucks, as opposed to trying to force a team in uninterested markets like Atlanta, Phoenix, and Raleigh!
All jokes aside really sorry to hear about your dog and you aren’t in the twilight zone dude
This feels like a nightmare that we came all this way and waking up to reality that hockey gods not liking florida
You mean “Sunrise”
I’m okay with satan taking everything over for real. 2024 is the year of the devil. Fuck everything.
Try being a Canadian and the hockey gods (Gary Betman) won't let a Cabadian team win the cup .Go Oliers Go
@@joeygray6859I mean clearly they do with that pixel offside call. Plus the penalties in game 5 killed the Panthers cuz they dominated 5v5. If it was really rigged against Canada than Florida would have won in 5
Hockey gods are punishing the Florida panther fans. Haha jk
Die hard Oilers fan since 1980. Good luck Panthers. The most exciting thing in sports - game 7 of the Stanley cup final! I hope my team wins, but it’s going to be awesome either way!
Just found your channel... I'm an Oilers fan and there is no joy in seeing anyone so disappointed, especially dealing with your dog's condition. The series is still on and the outcome will be what it is. Keep on loving your hockey team. Sending prayers to you and Fluffy... You're a top dude... Peace 🙏
I’m a Dolphins/Cowboys fan, both of which are in an exclusive club of 5 teams that haven’t made a championship in 25+ years. Panthers would have been the first time I’ve seen one of my teams go all the way. But honestly, going up 3-0 and then doing what they’re doing now, probably stings worse than a 25 year drought. Cause now, you’re not just a laughing stock, you’re going to be remembered just as well as 28-3.
It’s worse than 28-3 because it’s stretched out over a week
The Fluffy news is rough. Ill pray for you, my friend.
As far as the Panthers are concerned.... Three more days, and we'll have a conclusion. It'll either be joyous or agony. I got 30 years into this team. Don’t know how much I got left in me if this ends poorly.
I really can't blame Bob for the goals that were scored. None are soft or bad ones and hes still had some good saves. The rest of the team, I have no words.
Hey, oilers fan here. Sorry to see your going thru hell man. No one needs a kick in the nuts after a kick in the nuts. Be strong for your pup man. Hockey aside, thats rough.
As an oilers fan I’m just as scared for game 7 anything can happen good luck to your team I respect all hockey fans
One more thing. First time seeing your channel. As an Edmontonian we eat, sleep and live for hockey. We absolutely adore our team and we’re extremely critical of them as well because of that love. Nice to see a Florida fan (which I previously didn’t think felt the same way) which mirrors our fan base. Thanks for opening my eyes.
Im not gonna watch the game 7. I will sleep well, when i wake up i open my phone, i go YT, put word "NHL" and then i see who is the champion. I was over 70% sure Panthers would win this match but now. Yesterday i played NHL 19 and i faced Edmonton and won it 7-3. I thought this would give some kind of magical thing to Panthers but now. I will not watch the match as i cant take it. But im still confident that we will win game 7 but we need to stay focus on facts, not on bullshit words that someones are saying. But i know in my heart that i cant forgive the ones who blew this
You thought you playing a video game would affect real life?
@@UFCandWeed Yep. Everytime i played, Panthers won it and when i didnt play they lost so thats why i got this magic feeling...Glory to my and our Panthers

Hawks fan here, stumbled upon your channel this series and your content hasn't disappointed. Feeling for you about Fluffy, losing a pet is never easy. As for the Panthers, feeling for you there too. Watching from a neutral fan perspective this has been my favorite finals in 25 years of watching hockey. Don't give up hope yet, they are still 1 win away on home ice from the ultimate goal. All the best and I look forward to your post Game 7 video, win or loss!
I hope all goes well with you, Fluffy and the family. I understand how tough it must be and the wellbeing of him and yourself is certainly more important than the hockey (I know hockey is part of your living but you know what I mean). As for the Cats my only guess is that they may be out of gas, their bodies are more fatigued than we think (as Jets fans warned us about). Let’s all hope they get 2 points on Monday, best wishes to you and Fluffy. ❤❤
Panthers gotta find a way to deal with Oiler's speed...Its absolutely taken Florida out of there game...Oilers just flying out there..
hit them
I hope Fluffy is happy, despite how this series has turned. Remember that it's not over. Neither team has lost 4 yet. There is still a chance on Monday.
It's over.

Florida Panther Fan, win or lose. This team needs to just give everything on the ice. They were so slow the other night that they gotta have the energy for one more all-out push! I pray for the team mentally and will stand with them when the dust settles. Go Panthers
Really appreciate your live streams and recaps this season. Have the weekend to yourself and Kyle and spend it with Fluffy. Whatever the outcome on Monday is, be proud of what you have brought to us fellow fans.
Life long Oilers fan here: Breaks my heart seeing you like this. Huge condolences for the pup. I know how you feel on both talking points. The SCF hurts now, but keep the faith. Believe. Oilers fans have been believing in our team through the decade of darkness, since game seven in 2006. Florida has to do the same. You may win the cup yet but it really feels like the cats are out of steam. The Oil have been backed into a corner all year; This is the normal level of anxiety. It's hard to beat an opponent who has had nothing to lose all year.
Keep the faith, brother. The Cats can come back from this.
I just heard a clip of a very calm Paul Maurice say they do their best work with their backs against the wall. Well, here it is. It's time to paint their masterpiece.
Leaf fan here, Respect man. I feel ya. Peace ✌️ 😎. Maurice is a great coach, probably top 3 in the league. Sorry about the Pup 🐶, best friends are hard to find and the unconditional love is amazing. Have a good cry it will help.
And no one knows pain like a leafs fan
Never seen a team so lazy and just not show up for 3 Cup closing out games. They are a disgrace.
Jaws as fans this is very hard to stomach, I can’t imagine what you are feeling right now going through this plus the heartache in your personal life….. but you handle it so well, huge credit to you and your son!!! Sending love from the UK ,
I'm sorry to hear about your pup, just remember you have given him a great life, the best a pup can ask for filled with love and care.
This isn’t hell, end of game seven is gonna be hell.
As a life long Panthers fan it is so frustrating to see them in this situation
They're called the Cardiac Cats for a reason. Im sorry you guys are going through a lot with Fluffy. Keeping you all in my thoughts.
FIRE PAUL MAURICE.
I'm not a hockey fan, nor know anything about the sport despite the puck needs to get in the net. I'm not pretending to know what's right. What I see is the Oilers have found an adjustment that is working. That adjustment is either something the Panthers cannot correct or they don't know what the Oilers see. Oilers clearly are playing like they want it more. I'm a sports fan and just don't see how the Panthers win Game 7. It doesn't look like a team that believes like the Oilers do. Good luck to both teams.
As a diehard bruins fan I know the feeling you’re going thru right now…you guys still have a chance on Monday tho to make it right unlike us…been following you since the bruins series…🙏 for fluffy too.
These videos are better than the games
honestly I give up....I went and bought the eastern conference champs shirt and hat cause I know I ain't get the other...unless I move to Africa
I’ve been a die hard panthers fan, supporter since day 1. As a fan, I take a lot of trash from other fan bases. We finally have the post season run. Going up 3-0 in the final. We can’t finish it? Pathetic.
JAWS, I’m so sorry you have to go through all this. I’m sorry you have ti deal with this while trying to take care of Fluffy in his last days.
The panthers are failing you, and it’s not fair.
Also sending prayers for you and Fluffy ❤
I think I have to blame the coach now. You failed to fire up your team and give them a sense of urgency. They have not adjusted to the Oilers since end of the 3rd Game 3 and no game plan to stop their offense nor have an aggressive 1st period to take the lead. The way they are playing has to be scripted.
“I don’t believe in momentum”
…SO WHAT THE HELL WAS THE POINT OF:
”I just thought they needed some profanity in their live’s”
In the words of Captain America:
*“NOW MIGHT BE A REALLY GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO GET ANGRY.”*
This changed in that 3rd period of game...we just hung on, but the Oilers just flipped a switch and never looked back.
It’s their Cup to win, not ours. Their names go on the trophy, not ours. This is on them, and it’s up to them to get themselves out of it.
It’s crazy cause they don’t feel the stress that we feel…
@@FrankThe77Tank I think usually people feel more stressed about something they care a lot about but have no control over than they do about something they can control.

@@anthonybignotti3503 I’m a Rangers Fan so I’m good lol I just meant watching our teams in general.
Oiler Fan here. I'm tremendously impressed by your wisdom, insight, and... indeed... compassion.
Thank you, those words do mean something to me this morning as I wrestle with what to do about Fluffy, it's so hard to know what is right.
@@flyingfluffyhockey I've had that experience. I had to put my service dog down. It was the hardest thing I had to do. But, I knew that I loved her, because it hurt so bad.
Feel for you, bud. Love the format of your channel and the passion you have for your team. You're allowing total strangers into your home to watch the games and you wear your emotions on your sleeve. Best case scenario of Cats pulling off the reverse choke would only soften the blow of losing your dog. Sending prayers to you and your's.
That was brutal from the start. I was really hoping that the momentum and energy they had in the 3rd period of game 5 would carry over, that was us playing to our identity; that's how we won the 1st three games, but you have to play that way for 60 minutes (or longer, if that's what it takes). The script has been reversed. In the 1st three games, Bob was bob and we had legs. We were healthy, fresh, fast and better conditioned. Now, it's Edmonton that is fresh and fast and they're playing like sharks who smell blood in the water because it's been do or die for them the last three games. They have a lot to play for; their country, their potential (last chance for a cup players) and 1st cup for their star whose never won. They have fought to come back in this series, and they deserve this game 7, but we need to end their little run. We have the same reasons to want to win (and more). We need to believe that we're the better team because we have been all year and we've played against and beaten the best of the best in the playoffs to get here, but there's only one way to prove that we're the best... and that's to beat the last team standing with any hope of winning. We have what it takes to win... Get that fire back in your bellies, and we'll be the last team standing!
Metaphorically speaking: If the Panthers don't write their fairy-tale ending (the one they deserve; the one they've worked so hard all year long for and 30 years in total) ... Then they're gonna be reading someone else's book and they're going to be the character that doesn't get the girl. We've all read that book, and it sucks.
I think the Panthers really need a mental health day, a day with family and friends (away from hockey) just to get out of their own heads. Physical fitness starts in the mind.
This ends in 2 ways.
1. Oilers win and the story is: "The greatest comeback in NHL history". F*CK THAT!
or
2. Panthers win and the story is: "In one of the greatest 7 game series in NHL history, where the Florida Panthers had never won a Stanley Cup in their 30 year franchise, comes out to a 3 - 0 lead in the series, completely shutting down the best player since the great Wayne Gretzky. One win away from a 30 year dream... they're unstoppable! And just when you thought the series was over; the Oilers finally figured out the Panthers and embarrass them in game 4. It was just one game though, and Florida is still one win away from being crowned The 2024 Stanley Cup Champions. Momentum, still on their side; the odds ever in their favor. Then they lose game 5 at home, confidence waivers, followed by another lackluster effort in game 6, pushing them to the brink of an all time collapse. The Florida Panthers... With their backs up against the wall, in a now or never game 7 against a team that has steamrolled them after being down by 3 games in this series themselves, carry with them all of the momentum needed to win the Stanley Cup in hostile territory. It's been a battle for the ages; a roller-coaster ride of a series... The Panthers go up, then come crashing down, but what happens on a roller-coaster? When you're at your lowest... the ride climbs once more. The past is the past and with grit, determination and an infallible sense of self; the Florida Panthers overshadow their doubters, bloodied and bruised; they are victorious! The Panthers win one of the most difficult trophies in league sports and against the toughest of opponents and fan-bases. It took 30 years and a lot of hard fought battles to finally win this seasonal war, but the 2024 Florida Panthers are the undisputed Stanley Cup Champions!
That's the story I want to read, so get the rats ready!
Sorry to hear about Fluffy, prayers for the big boi and you!
Oilers fan here. This series has given me new appreciation for Panther fans. Can't root for you guys against us but I will absolutely root for you to win a cup against anyone else now. Sorry about your dog :'( looking forward to a great game Monday and will genuinely be happy for you if Panthers pull it off (but not cheering for it to happen).
Praying that Panthers win, sending them Zen and good energy. It is 3.30 am here, can’t sleep cause of work worries. I am a Canuck fan, Oilers look great but there is time for McDavid to win some other year. Panthers need it now. Keep Fluffy safe and happy.
As a Canadian if you blow this. WOW. We'll never hear the end of this. Lol
My comment section every video for a decade will be fans trolling "reverse sweep"
As a Leaf fan I know the stress and disappointment you must be feeling, but take it from someone who had is heartbroken more than one can imagine being a sports fan, it's only a game. I hope you take the time to spend with your sweet Fluffy boy, hockey is a game, our dearest friends are so much more. So sorry your friend will be leaving you soon.
Bennet needs to take McDavid out!
Gudas would be useful now
Fluffy needs you, sorry to break this to you. I understand you love Florida like I love Boston. But the team doesnt need you like Fluffy needs you. To him, you are very likely exact everything he loves. I cry as I write this, I lost many dogs in my life and know the pain. So every moment you can give him, GIVE IT! Forget game 7. Be with fluffy as you are his hero.
I would give everything for just 1 more moment with the dohs I lost. just one more moment. I can never have that. you still can!
Something else concerning, Paul Maurice said he liked last games 1st period, i was listening to Doug and Bill Lindsay and Bill even said he had to disagree with coach, Bill said nothing to like about Floridas first period last game, think PM is lost
we love you jaws! no matter what happens there is more to life... Do we deserve this as long life panther fans NO. No matter what happens monday night the panthers have given us 2 years of excitement and put some butts in the seats. this is a great team, game 7 will be epic. leave it out all on the ice. PANTHERS IN 7
Just want to say, I'm an oiler's fan, going back to the 80 (yup pushing 57) was in the colisum when they lifted one of their cups. You have the same passion for your team that I have for mine, and I could NEVER fault anyone for that. My heart was broken in 2006, and I KNOW game 7 is not decided it's going to be a tough game either way. Having said that, what has touched me is your compassion, your heartbreak over fluffy. I lost my girl scarlet (doberman) last month, my heart is going out to you and fluffy, it hurts when you losse your best friend, and even worse when you have to make that decision . I'm so sorry
This sucks I know. More than anything this really sucks. It’s very easy to be negative right now, we are playing like dogshit and the clock seems to be inching closer and closer to midnight. But we got one more game. One more. It’s going to take everything and then some to overcome the situation we’ve put ourselves in, it would be ENORMOUSLY impressive if these guys can mentally overcome the voices in their head, the pressure, the media, literally everything, and go win this thing. These guys need us now more than ever. It’s easy to be passionate and loud when we’re winning. We need that building to be rocking on Monday. Leave it all out there so there are no excuses. Everyone who has a ticket to that game need to leave without a voice no matter what happens, anything less is unacceptable from a south Florida sports fan. And I’m not talking about our cringe fanbase that doesn’t know hockey and is only their because they have money that thinks we’re being loud and exciting and cool, nah F that. We have been outclassed by every fanbase in each round of these playoffs so far, I get it’s tough matching up against original 6 fan bases, but we can at least try. Everyone on their feet, everyone screaming the whole game, we need to get behind these guys now more than ever. The entire city of Fort Lauderdale. It’s us against the world now, everyone thinks we’re going to lose. Maurice’s ass in on the line here, Bennett, Verhaeghe, Barkov, Verhaeghe Reinhart, Tkachuk, your ass is on the line, Bill Zito your ass is on the line. It’s time we give the NHL world a nice big ole shit burger to eat.
I’m a bruins fan that found you last season. I have grown to really hate the panthers for obvious reasons - you heartbreakers. I’m rooting for the oilers but I’m rooting for you too. All the best
I am not a Panther fan but I am sorry to hear about how Fluffy is doing as a dog owner myself I feel for you man.
My man said " so i wrote a book " 😂 Panthers fans going through it
Hey I've sold like 25 copies including the one my Mom bought lol
@@flyingfluffyhockeywhat did Debbie think about it
@@colbykistner3393 even my Dad liked it lol
I think if the Panthers want to win, they need to shut out all the external noise and internal pressure. They've played great for most of the playoffs and I think some of the players have become their own worst enemy by overthinking. Unlike the games running up, this is for the Stanley Cup this time, and Oilers are going to Oiler, but it's not the Oilers they're fighting, it's their own mental doubts and fears.
Flying their friends and family up to see them win 🏆 game 4 was huge mistake.
Over confident and lack of respect for Oilers
Wishing you all the best with Fluffy and im pulling for the panthers here ♡ lets go! Yall got this!
Their inability to adjust from their forechecking system has caused them to lose three straight. They need to watch film on games that have neutralized the oilers rush offense, particularly how a trapping scheme can completely erase Edmontons offense. Florida tires themselves out by constantly hunting for pucks, and their system opens them up to odd man rushes that normally Bob does save in the regular season and earlier this postseason. They gotta shake up their structure for game 7 or they're toast. Trap to start the game and slow it down to a crawl, it'll frustrate Edmonton and puts pressure on them to force plays which can lead to opportunities for Florida to score. Florida needs to play a much more patient game.
Brand new Cats fan here but first a Caps fan from Washington. So trust me I know heartbreak and heartache. The Cats are pulling their best Caps impression right now. Hang in there dude I really believe we can still pull this off. Take care of yourself brother and your dog as well. Sending good wishes from Southwest FL
Not buried yet. But please don’t screw this up.
I feel for you bud. Gotta say I’m glad to see that smirk wiped off of Paul’s face.
Florida is about to do what no NHL team has done since the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs & that's blow a 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Finals. They are not the same team we saw in the 1st 3 games & throughout the playoffs. They are completely spent. The Stanley Cup playoffs are an endurance test & Florida has hit the wall. They’ve been out scored 18-5 the past 3 games & just look exhausted.
Unless they find something, anything, for game 7 Edmonton is going to steamroll them.
It happens man, from a Canadian... hockey is unpredictable. Just like life is unpredictable, and we never know how our health or the health of our loved ones will be. Life is a struggle of suffering and paradise. Create the paradise you seek. Amen!
I feel like if Florida won in 96, they would have taken the Avs trajectory and won 3 or so cups by now, and not lost in the finals 2-4 times now, whatever it's been.
And as an Avs Fan, I couldn't be happier about it.
Worked out well for you guys! Congrats
As an Edmonton fan I felt the same as you after game 3. I didn't watch any content etc.. Hockey is a trip. It will be over for all of us come Monday night. I'm sorry about your dog bro.
If Fluffy isn't feeling well you should just do what you have to do. Better he be at peace for game 7 then feeling sick.
Yeah I second this, I know it ain't easy but think about it might be best for both of you.
Love the channel good luck in game 7 gang!
Yeah I agree I put my cat down a few years ago 2 days before my birthday I really wanted her to live until my birthday because we both actually share the same birthday and my parents got her just after I turned 1 so she was was with me for nearly 20 years. But I knew I had to lie her down she could barely breath and walk and I didn’t want her to suffer any longer than she needed to.
I do not entirely disagree but it's not totally that simple. He can still walk some and still eats, drinks and can go potty. He sleeps most of the day and as long as I am sitting with him off & on he is ok. The situation is complicated by the fact that where we live, we cannot just call a vet and have them show up a few hours later, they all need about 2 days notice, so by now if we called he would be put down Monday right before the game, which is something I am obviously trying to avoid, mainly for Kyle who is not quite ready. I've had to put 4 dogs to sleep, and Ellie went in March on her own.
To give an idea of the dilemma , he woke up today, walked outside , peed and then laid down. I can't have him outside for very long because of this heat wave. Long story short after about 20 minutes of trying to get him to come in, and seeing that he was not gonna poop, I went inside to get him some extra water and thought "Ok that's it I am calling the vet". When I came back, he had gotten up on his own, barked at me when he saw me as if to say " screw you and the vet", pooped and then came in. I kept saying I would give him time if he was eating, walking and pooping, so I feel like I should keep my word that way. It's just brutal man, but we are trying to gut it out, but I understand your suggestion as well. I feel like no matter what I am making the wrong decision.
@@flyingfluffyhockey I have had to go it twice with dogs we had for over a decade and IT SUCKS. When you say "I feel like no matter what I'm making the wrong decision..." man that gets me in the feels my guy. I felt the SAME way... try not to beat yourself up over it and I hope it works out best it can.
Rangers fan here. I love your channel I love your passion I love your commitment I love your agony all things that I felt in the last series in the Eastern conference finals. This is less about Florida collapsing and more about McDavid rising to the occasion. He is in my opinion and I'm a huge Wayne Gretzky fan the greatest hockey player of all time. By the time he's done he'll have all of Gretzky's records unless some type of injury sidelines him. It's hard to not buy into this team of destiny with how they started the season The coaching change the 16 in a row it's an amazing story.
I do have a question for you do you think if Florida loses Monday Paul Maurice loses his job?
I doubt it, the owners and previous owners went through coaches like cough drops and I think they are in it for stability now. Will Maurice WANT to keep coaching is the question, like how would he convince players to believe after a reverse sweep?
They thought it was 5 game series.
This might be Boston Red Sox 2004 all over again?
