Can we say momentum swing?

Wow. There is 5 minutes left in Game #6 of the Stanley Cup Finals and all I can say is wow. Here are some thoughts regarding the game and its impact on the series.

  • I had the pregame on mute and was talking to my dad when all of a sudden I saw Erik Cole on the TV. Cole? He’s back? Since when?
  • Can we say momentum swing? Obviously the Oilers got the momentum after scoring on a shorthanded breakaway in OT of Game #5, but they are owning tonight’s game with a 4-0 lead. Carolina just better hope that they can get out of tonight’s game with no more injuries and hope that the Raleigh crowd is loud.
  • For comments made throughout the game, check out Alanah @ VCOE. I left this comment on her post during the game:

    Wow, the Canes look…wait, are they even out there on the ice? I think they all may be hiding in the penalty box.

    And I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought Carolina’s coach looked like he was gonna explode - it reminded me of those looney tune cartoons…

    Seriously, how many penalties are those Hurricanes gonna take? Gosh. There were 10 total penalties for the Canes, 4 apiece in the second and third periods. The Oilers had 7 penalties.

  • With the way the Oilers played tonight, you would have no idea that they were down 3-1 in a series. That team is the Comeback King and in Monday’s game, they too will have a chance to win a Cup that night. You can never ever count them out.
  • I love watching the Rexall crowd. I got chills hearing them sing the Canadian national anthem. Then with less than five left in the game, the crowd started chanting “We Want Cup.” I got goosebumps.
  • I may have to liveblog Monday night’s game - it should be a good one.
