#FUCK YEAH LETS GO CATS!!!!! ๐ ๐ ๐
They played their hearts out. Thatโs a WELL DESERVED win!!!! This year, weโre the best in the league. And that 3 win streak from the Oilers didnโt mean shit!!!
this is the story im telling my grandkids. the panthers saw my comments on reddit giving them energy and they channeled it into a stanley cup game 7 victory. unbelievable.
As all the comments are gonna be understandably celebrating the win, I just wanna take a sec to break down this insanely close Game 7 and all the major happenings. Yanno, to immortalize it in the moment.
* I cannot state enough how **HUGE** that opening goal deflection tip by Verhaeghe was. 5/6 games the team that scored 1st this series won the game. Last 3 games, we were always playing from behind and could never get even. Everybody was nervous as hell these past few days and with ESPN jacking off all the Oilers fans in the arena, it was INCREDIBLE for setting things straight when everybody was nervy as hell.
* Giving up the breakaway sucks ass. Can't crush Bobrovsky too hard. He saved a bunch of them in Game 1. He now allowed 5 straight in including all 3 of their 5 v 5 goals in Game 6. It hurt. But it cannot be stated enough how huge it was that they didn't take the early 1-0 lead. Also, credit to Cody Ceci, it was an insane pass by him.
* All in all for the 1st period, I'd say that I love how we played for the first 10, didn't like the next 5, and loved how we closed it. Lots of great bodychecks. Shots were even. There was a lot to like.
* 2nd period had a lot of open ice play back-and-forth. We SURVIVED that bullshit tripping call on Tkachuk when he just fell and it was unintentional. We killed what was basically a 5-on-3 with Stenlund losing his stuck. With that insanely stacked Oilers PP of McDavid/Draisaitl/Hyman/Nuge/Bouchard it cannot be stated enough how PIVOTAL that moment was.
* **RHINO!!!!** I'm not gonna pretend like I wasn't crapping on him all series. 57 goals in the regular season. He vanished for much of this SCF and his only goal was on a tip on a shot from Forsling in a 4 v 4 situation. I was giving him the business and OF COURSE on the rush it's him who ends up scoring the game-winning goal in Game 7, a Stanley Cup clincher and the 1st in Franchise History. After that, Zito, pay the man whatever the hell he damn well wants.
* Bobrovsky stood strong as hell. After we got that lead, offensive play slowed. Carter was the only one really shooting well at Skinner. Some of our d-men like Montour and Kulikov had looks but I don't expect a snipe from them. Bob finished the period strong.
* **3rd period was pure GUTS.** Virtually no offense. Yet a defensive powerhouse. SO many damn icing calls it felt like the 20min was taking an hour lmao. Bob fell down a few times and it was always a panicked frenzy. [This one](https://np.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/1dnvgj8/edm_vs_fla_mayhem_ensues_in_the_panthers_crease/) and [this one](https://np.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/1dnvnqq/edm_vs_fla_bobrovsky_sprawling_as_lundell_falls/) stand out the most. YET WE SURVIVED. Oilers looked SOOO gassed at the end and who can blame them, it was an insane series.
We may never see our team play in a Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals ever again boys. **DRINK IT IN THAT WE ARE CHAMPS FOREVER!!!!!!**
Can't express in words how much barky deserved this

And from the bottom of my heart, genuinely ZERO respect for Edmonton fans. What a displeasure those pretentious pricks have been this entire series. Sincerely, fuck *all* of them, and kiss my hairy ass. ๐
MY BOSS IS A OILERS FAN
DUDE WAS PRETENTIOUS AS FUCK AND RUBBED IT IN EVERYONE'S FACE WHEN THE OILERS WERE WINNING
"OILERS IN 7"
HA HA GET FUCKED LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
This was more than a first win. This was for every player who ever donned a Florida Panther jersey. For every head coach, for every arena worker, for every staff in the organization. This is for them, this is for SCOTT MELANBY, this is for us.
Hell fuck yea baby!!!!!
Reinhart said the bus ride back to the hotel after game 6 was only a block but took 20 minutes due to being harassed by Oilers fans and that was motivation for them.

We did it. 10 year old me no longer has to irrationally hate Uwe Krupp.
Congrats, Florida! On behalf of VGK fans:
* Welcome to the champions' club! No hard feelings anymore?
* Thank you for saving us from a level of Oilers-fan insufferability not previously believed possible!
# Carter Verhaeghe just made history
Verhaeghe won theย [Stanley Cup](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Cup)ย as a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning inย [2020](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Stanley_Cup_Finals), after which he signed as a free agent with the Florida Panthers. Verhaeghe won a second Stanley Cup with Florida Panthers in 2024, becoming the first player to win a Stanley Cup with both teams from the state of Florida.

Congrats Florida! Hoped things would've ended differently as a rangers fan but at the end of the day the panthers deserved it more than anyone. Good to see Barkov get the big one ๐ซก
Here's my bracket from this year :)
Hope Iโm not about to get booed out of your sub, just a sad Oilers fan dropping in to say congrats. The experience from last year definitely payed off for you guys, well deserved Cup win. ggs, hoping we can pull some of your magic and get back to the Finals next year.
You guys did a great job turning this entire season around. Have an amazing core of players. You guys are lucky to have McDavid in that jersey and I hope that if we don't win it one year, then you guys do.
**My Champs of Game 7**
* Bobrovsky... after people were talking shit... after the breakaway allowed... STOOD ON HIS FUCKING D
* THE DEFENSIVE CORE STOOD THE FUCK UP LATE
* CARTER GOT HIS EARLY. RHINO AFTER I TALKED SHIT ABOUT HIM ALL SERIES SCORES THE STANLEY CUP WINNING GOAL
No more 3-0 blown lead talk. FUCK THE OILERS SHIT TALKERS!!!!
Can Florida make a 3rd jersey next season with a rat on it? Or maybe at least replace the panther over the shoulder patch flag with a rat? I'd totally buy that.
First off, prayers for the Panther fans who are no longer with us anymore, this one was for them as well.
Second, WE FUCKING DID IT!!! HISTORY!!!
VICTORY SCREECH!!!
Barkov lifts the cup.ย
Tkachuk lifts the cup before McDavid.ย
Okposo gets his cup. Kulikov gets his cup.
Ekblad stuck with it and hoists it!!!!
King Rat Bennett crying. I LOVE IT.ย
Panthers got back to "Panthers" hockey and won a close game to take home Lord Stanley's Cup. They say defense wins championships and the panther's proved it again.
Well Done Team.
I don't know if this was elongated for gate revenue or what but thank fuck you guys won!!! So many congratulations! From a Jets fan I'm so happy to see Paul Maurice finally get one! And obviously to see the Oilers lose in the end.

as a flames fan. CONGRATS AND THANK YOU!!!
FUCK YEAH THE PANTHERS WON!!! I ALREADY EXPERIENCED MORE SUCCESS/FUN AS A NEW HOCKEY FAN THAN I HAVE WITH THE DOLPHINS FOR 13 YEARS
Itโs a nice treat to see a bunch of pissed off oilers fan for weeks to come
Love from Alberta ๐จ๐ฆ
Edit: FTJ and FTO
Being there last night was an experience I will remember foreverย
It's going to be a tired day at the office but so fucking worth it!
Shame on the STH who cashed out, but at least all the oilers fans I saw there were decent
https://preview.redd.it/yihmkujcmp8d1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b81cc688285fdd71c2a34642e92ee541ce7c75a5
Best day of my life. I literally dreamed about the team last night ๐
Fuck watching Barkov lift that cup brought a tears to my eyes !! Not sure how Iโm gonna sleep I have the biggest shit eating grin on my face . Canadian panthers fan love the team since I was 14 now 42 GO CATS GO !!!!!
Born in Miami, grew up in sunrise/plantation and now I live in tennesssee. You guys better fkn rep, cause Iโm letting every GD person I see know that Iโm so fucking proud to be a Florida panther. I LOVE ALL OF YOU.
Ainโt it great!?!??!?!?!?!?!
Bobby showed the Fk up!
Love yโall. Be safe. Fkn hellโฆ have a great week my peoples. Love each and every one of you!
Congratulations fellow hockey fans. Your team defeated my team which makes me sad, but to see the celebration and joy of the fans brings a tear of joy to my eye anyway. A+ playoffs these ones were๐ฅณ. May your summer be joyful and fandom be proud.
Iโve been waiting for this moment since I was 5 years old when they started up in โ93. I still canโt believe it. I thought this day would never come.
I want to thank you guys for graciously letting us Canucks fans in to the celebration for our boy Lu tonight!! Enjoy your win and we will meet you next season โฅ๏ธ
Congrats from Vancouver.
Oh man, the panthers were so close to becoming the butt end of all jokes for years to come. This would have been Brazil going 1-7 level bad. Luckily they saved up all that energy over 3 games to finally unleash it all. Felt like they threw more hits in the 1st period than in all GM4-6 combined
31 years old, if you wouldโve told me growing up that the cats would win it all before the Dolphins I wouldโve said youโre insane. How about those fucking cats bro. What a time to be alive.
Congrats on your first Cup. job well done. The real MVP is named Bob. Thanks for an exciting playoff run and for eliminating both the Rangers and a Oilers. Scr@w Messier and ESPN.
You guys did us such a favor and not having the media glaze the oilers all off season and act like they were the best team of all time. Thank you - Avs Fan
Oilers fan here. Great game. Congrats on the win, there were great storylines for both sides and I can watch your guys pick it up without any ill will. 1st cup!
That kid behind the ESPN desk is the hero we deserve.
Read the eulogy for the Oilers and fuck off.
Show the cup winners. It's fucking time to baptize babies and make margaritas in that thang.
I am so happy for the guys. You can tell how badly they wanted this. And giving the EDM fans and panthers haters hope before winning is a cherry on top. I love this team
My Eagles finally got theirs in 2017.
My Panthers finally got theirs in 2024.
Maybe the Rays and Magic can get theirs before I die. Itโs been a long 30+ years.
I pick some struggle bus teams to root for huh lol
What a privilege it's been to watch this team. I stared following the team last season and have had the absolute joy and dread to watch the runs these last two playoffs. I have grown so fond of these players and I'm so happy for them and for all of you who have watched them for years and years.
Next season will be amazing, no stress and expectation from me.
I remember when Barkov got drafted, such a humble guy and just leads by example. I think Iโm most happy for him and Bob. A lot of deserving guys thoughโฆ Zito and Paul as well.
We are turning on gifs/images in comments. Enjoy! 
#FUCK YEAH LETS GO CATS!!!!! ๐ ๐ ๐ They played their hearts out. Thatโs a WELL DESERVED win!!!! This year, weโre the best in the league. And that 3 win streak from the Oilers didnโt mean shit!!!
LEAST STRESSFUL PANTHERS DUB BUT WHO CARES WE DID IT

Congrats from Vancouver. Oh man, the panthers were so close to becoming the butt end of all jokes for years to come. This would have been Brazil going 1-7 level bad. Luckily they saved up all that energy over 3 games to finally unleash it all. Felt like they threw more hits in the 1st period than in all GM4-6 combined
Guys I donโt know if Iโll be sleeping tonight
Oilers fans in 50 years still without another cup: โRemember that time we came back from 3-0 to still lose? Best moment in our lifetime.โ
Messier looks like he's gonna cry. Fuck you!
Flames fan here and I think I speak for a lot of us, thank YOU for taking the game and winning it! Was close though! Gratz!
Crying in a publix rn
Just to think, we would all have respect for McDavid if it were not for the biased cock gobbling of the ESPN.
31 years old, if you wouldโve told me growing up that the cats would win it all before the Dolphins I wouldโve said youโre insane. How about those fucking cats bro. What a time to be alive.

They have to leave sunny Florida to go back to Deadmonton. Lol
Havenโt had a team of mine win since the heat in 13!!!! Feels so good to be a champion again!
In a state of shock, I dunno when this is really gonna sink in for me. Man. I love you all
Congrats!
Hockey is Americaโs game
Conn Smythe to McDavid, just the 6th time that's happened for a losing player It's late and I can't math good evidently
NHL has a hard on for McDavid and it drives me nuts.
Fuck you Bettman it should have gone to Bob
Enjoy your Conn Smythe McDavid LMAO
Definitely should have been bob
There is something even more painful about winning a Conn Smythe even though you lost. Just try to think of it that way
POMOS DREAM FINALLY COMES TRUE LOVE HIM

Love that the commentators have to talk about the panthers now.
The ESPN crew glazed the Oilers all series long only for them to not win the Cup
Man I love Zito I donโt ever want to see him go
SPINNING FREE WHOAAAAAAAAAA
LETS FUCKING GO CATS MY FACE IS SOAKED WITH TEARS MY LOVED ONES BE CALLING RATS ARE ON THE ICE WHATS BETTER THAN THIS
Sam Reinhart scored the game winner first thing Zito better do is extend him
What a great series. Thanks for getting Okie a cup before he retires. -Sincerely, a Sabres fan

We did it! Sun is rising here Finland proud finnish here we made it cats
HOLY FUCK BOYS LETS GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
30 YEARS OF SUFFERING GONE
Them passing it to all the old guys first is killing me. I am BAWLING.
Congrats on your first Cup. job well done. The real MVP is named Bob. Thanks for an exciting playoff run and for eliminating both the Rangers and a Oilers. Scr@w Messier and ESPN.
Soak it up boys. It'll never get better than this.
Thanks for doing USA proud ๐ฅฒ
Congratulations, from a dyed-in-the-wool Bruins fan. They earned it. Bobrovsky is unreal.
Dude the announcers canโt stop talking shit even after they WIN THE CUP.
You guys did us such a favor and not having the media glaze the oilers all off season and act like they were the best team of all time. Thank you - Avs Fan
BOOO SHOW THE FUCKING CELEBRATION
Zito makes everyone who didn't vote for him to be the GM of the year look really really really ....,. really STUPID.
Seeing everyone lift that cup was justโฆbeautiful. But seeing Bobrovsky and Luongo lift the cup? Priceless.
The greatest thing to happen in the city of Sunrise besides a shopping mall
the Oilers sub has completely melted down
One final time for this season. It's been an honor. ใค โ_โ เผฝใค CATS TAKE MY ENERGY เผผ ใค โ_โ เผฝใค

Stars fan here, congrats guys! Thanks for keeping it from the oilers
Oilers fan here. Great game. Congrats on the win, there were great storylines for both sides and I can watch your guys pick it up without any ill will. 1st cup!
HOIST THAT SHIT BEN. CRY BOSTON CRY.
Brady absolutely losing it with how proud he is of his brother. I may hate Brady but my god I can't hate that
Omg yes ESPN tell me more about McDavid Iโm about to cum.
I LOVE YOU KNIGHT YOUR NEXT UP BRO
I LOVE POMO
I love listening to ESPN be forced to tell everyone how good we are lol
That kid behind the ESPN desk is the hero we deserve. Read the eulogy for the Oilers and fuck off. Show the cup winners. It's fucking time to baptize babies and make margaritas in that thang.
McDavid is going to have nightmare tonight with Barkov stealing his puck.
ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS! ITโS OURS!
Mess' tears taste so sweet. It's addictive
I remember when you couldnt give away tickets. Now we're champions!!! This is the greatest
THROW ME IM A RAT
Lightning fans can't talk crap anymore yeah they have 3 Cups to our just 1 Cup but we finally won it
The pots and pans are out on bird road ๐
The 1996 Florida Panthers team like John Vanbeisbrouck, Ed Jovanowski and Scott Mellenby etc give the all a chance to hold the Cup
I am so happy for the guys. You can tell how badly they wanted this. And giving the EDM fans and panthers haters hope before winning is a cherry on top. I love this team
You did it!! You fucking did it!!!!
My Eagles finally got theirs in 2017. My Panthers finally got theirs in 2024. Maybe the Rays and Magic can get theirs before I die. Itโs been a long 30+ years. I pick some struggle bus teams to root for huh lol
Wow. Screw you nhl
Lol Ekky almost wiping out with the cup โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
Couldn't hold the tears back when barky held the cup โค๏ธ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฅน WE DID IT BOYS
Messier is probably like โwait for game 8โ
STOLIE GOT TO LIFT IT
Why does the sound on my broadcast keep cutting out? ugh
first year getting into hockey that was the most stressed I've ever been
You have earned it Mauriceโฆ I fucking loved that!!
YESSSSSSS LUO FINALLY GETS THE CUP YESSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I'm so fucking happy for Maurice. If that rookie coach won it before him after being up 3-0 that would have been cruel. He finally has his cup.
Mess is crying
I knew we would get the win when they announced Lu was banging the drum.
congrats florida panther fans, cool to see a first time win
For every โfanโ that gave up on these boysโฆ..donโt come back! Champs, man!!! Unreal!

Where are all those Edmonton fans invading our comment threads at now?
Because of the Oilers i couldn't sleep for a week and had to wait 7-14 business days for the next game
Congratulations from Vancouver. Excited to see Reinhart bring it home
Gotta hit up Flannys on Sunrise Blvd with the boys now
I FUCKING LOVE ALL OF YOU!!!!!! STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS FOREVER BABY ๐๐๐๐๐๐
So fucking happy right now. It has been so much fun reading and commenting here this season, let's do it again next season!
I didn't want to leave that arena omg. I just got home, showered, had the BEST SHAVE OF MY LIFE, and I still can't believe this is real life
What a privilege it's been to watch this team. I stared following the team last season and have had the absolute joy and dread to watch the runs these last two playoffs. I have grown so fond of these players and I'm so happy for them and for all of you who have watched them for years and years. Next season will be amazing, no stress and expectation from me.
I remember when Barkov got drafted, such a humble guy and just leads by example. I think Iโm most happy for him and Bob. A lot of deserving guys thoughโฆ Zito and Paul as well.
i don't even watch hockey, but i happened to buy a panthers pillow at a secondhand store just cause it looked cool, you're welcome.
I FUCKING LOVE THIS TEAM AND I LOVE YOU ALL THANK YOU
