Stanley Cup Pregame Thread:Game 5: Panthers vs Knights
sharp oar
Ot with the cats winning, I am thinking 3-2.
vital rune
Think Florida wins
soft radish
i will say that my predicitions are almost always wrong. i said florida wins which means that vegas will win. unless this is a double negative prediction.
quiet walrus
5-3 Vegas. Plus, I can predict a lot of lap dances tonight.
final plover
Yeah, I think Vegas wraps things up tonight. Plus I'm a sucker for the Cup being handed out on home ice.
humble anchor
Vegas in OT. Seems fitting for the only game Florida looses in OT is the cup clinching game, isn't it ?

Team chaos, I like it!
opal bramble
Florida in regulation 2-1
soft radish
How about this. Prefictions aside - who do you want to win it all?
I think a Florida come back and cup win would be epic.
opal bramble
Knights are in the west so i'd love Florida to come back but i doubt it right now
worldly escarp
I just want to see a team win the cup at home.
quiet walrus
I want Vegas to win.
Florida's run is so similar to the Habs' run 2 years ago. It would heal my wounds a little knowing that we are not alone anymore lol.
solid gorge
Vegas 6-0
coral burrow
I want vegas to light it up like games 1&2.
No 17 seconds of hell, no pacing around being worried about a potential comeback just one last game watching them play at that absolutely unbeatable level we've seen a few times.
wide island
If it was game 7, I'd want the 17 seconds. It sucked in 2013 when it happened to the Bruins. But since it's Game 5, I'm down for a blow-out and happy Vegas Fans

As much as I want this to go to 7, I think they're handing out the Cup tonight.
And I have a gut feeling we'll know the outcome early. Some desperate hockey by the Panthers at the end of the 2nd and beginning of 3rd, then a plodding resignation as they accept reality later in the 3rd, probably with some unnecessary goonery after whistles for a while, but eventually anger will yield to depression and/or acceptance.
prime bane
What I WANT: 
forces game 6
What I THINK: 
it'd be funny if Vegas choked this 3-1 series lead altho I doubt it'll happen xP
wide island
... That'd be insane.
orchid umbra
Yeah, what scrub team does that?
wide island
Panthers coming back from being down 3-1 twice in the same Playoff Year
orchid umbra
That would be an all-time embarrassment, eh?
Kidding aside, even though they've done it once, they looked like they belonged on that Boston series. Vegas has looked totally dominant this series.
solid gorge
We can thank Carolina for laying down and dying so quickly because that long layoff for the Panthers seems to have stolen Bob's mojo. Plus the ratty style of play Florida uses might work against high skill, top heavy teams out easy but that's just like every day Pacific Division games. We are a bunch of rat bastards out west, just like as a whole.
prime bane
I just want to see a team win the cup at home.
At this point that would have to be Vegas
Panthers can’t win at home
whole basin
oh man... I'll try to enjoy the game for the sake of a good game not because of I want a win now, cause I highly doubt it'll be happening. so I'm in it for a good puck play.
fiery spade
watch for the josh mahura gwg

Same here. Go Knights
round shoal
I would like to see the cats force a game 6 and extend some playoff hockey out but if they are as bruised and banged up as the media is making it seem i dont think they have it in them
prime bane
it'll be interesting to see what happens tho
dapper siren
I hope Vegas can clinch on home ice and the lady who flashed can make her return again.
would be a nice storyline, nothing else should matter at this point... nope... no other story lines here for Vegas
tardy shell
Florida in OT 4-3?
Yes please
