I know we all crapped on these two teams facing off in the SCF, but this has been a great series so far, clearly the two best teams in the league going at it.

TARPS HAVE COME OFF IN VEGAS.

3 goals in 39 seconds!

Just like that— it’s a 4-3 game.

[NHL Review @nhl_review]

Stop giving this idiot a platform ..

[Launchpad McQuack @ManelessGinger]

Unfortunately, this is probably my fault. I went tarps off for the 3rd. My bad.

[Not Dave Canales @NotDaveCanales]

If the Carolina Hurricanes score 4 goals in the 3rd period to tie the game I’ll get a stormy tattoo. Please, for the love god.

[Joe Giglio @giglio_OG]

The house always wins … even for charity. Can’t say as I’ve seen a “51/49”

[Carolina Hurricanes @Canes]

🗣 GET UP, IT'S GAMEDAY

[Launchpad McQuack @ManelessGinger]

@TBFan613 But is every tax free state being a good team a coincidence? Kraken doesn’t count because Ron Francis was trash leadership.

[Launchpad McQuack @ManelessGinger]

A no state income tax “contender”? Color me shocked.

[Tampa Bay Sports Fan 🇺🇸 @TBFan613]

Elliotte Friedman says he’s looking at Tampa Bay and Dylan Larkin.

It is okay to be gay.

It is okay to be trans.

It is okay to be Black.

It is not okay to be a Golden Knights fan, I hate all of you.

@ZachCaniac I don’t want entertainment. I want dominance lmao

TARPS OFF FOR THE WIN BABY

[Steve Levy @espnSteveLevy]

Forever, I’ve said the loudest sports arena I’ve ever been in was the old Chicago Stadium. After these first 2 #StanleyCup games in Raleigh, I might have to rethink that. My ears still hurt!

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

The Hurricanes' 13th postseason win this year is tied for the most wins by any team in their first 15 games to begin a postseason, along with the 2022 Avalanche, 2012 Kings, 1988 Oilers, 1987 Oilers and 1981 Islanders.

All 5 previous teams won the Stanley Cup Final 👀

[sam prevot @s_prevot]

where’s the “canes are boring” crowd now??

[Cory Lavalette @corylav]

On the no goal that was upheld in third:

STEPHEN WALKOM to pool reporter:
“The ruling on the play was goaltender interference. He waived it (off) immediately. He believed that it was under the goalie and the Vegas player went after the puck and interfered with the goalie and his ability to freeze the puck and waived it off immediately.”

[dom 📈 @domluszczyszyn]

@ProducerDrew_ there is nothing embarrassing about losing close games in the stanley cup final drew

[EightyFourAndZero @84and0]

Can you build a team that goes 84-0? Play https://t.co/IAu4W0X1GJ

[Hannah Kirkell @h_kirk6]

However great you think the Carolina tailgating is, I promise, it’s better. Tents everywhere, grills and smokers, ball hockey, mini sticks, and a concert.
