Look, Florida is going to win the Cup. That third period has to have rattled them a bit, though. I knew that second goal was too early. Enabled them to get some momentum for a real push. And they got the third with plenty of time left to get a fourth and tie it. Luckily, they didn’t. We held on.
Until that third period Big Ed with their superstar front line had scored tyoo goals in tyoo and tyoo-third games. Bob was an impenetrable wall. What that third period showed was that the “Oilers” are never out of a game with their firepower.
I can’t fault Bobrovsky on either of the last period goals. Deflections, one off our defenseman’s rib cage, redirected shots. But still those things didn’t happen in games 1 and 2.
Look, we’re going to win the Cup. It was too little, too late for Edmonton and they’re now down three nil.
