00:00
In the other game, Edmonton did what they usually do.
00:03
They came out flat.
00:04
Vegas had a 2-0 lead 10 minutes into the game,
00:07
but the Oilers would then score the next four,
00:11
including this one with just about three minutes left to go,
00:15
I should say, in the third period.
00:16
Zach Hyman putting the Oilers ahead for good on ESPN.
00:20
Good stick by Darnell Nurse.
00:23
As Saab tried to drag one through his skates.
00:27
Klingberg snaps ahead.
00:28
The drop by Nugent Hopkins.
00:30
It's to Hyman.
00:30
Shoots.
00:31
Scores!
00:34
Zach Hyman rips it home.
00:37
Edmonton has the lead.
00:39
The Heimlich maneuver.
00:40
Your boy Hyman scoring.
00:43
And then, obviously, Bob with shoes on,
00:46
not having a chance to go hit the craps tables after the game
00:51
because he probably had to catch a flight early
00:53
to his next game that he was calling.
00:56
It's possible.
00:57
I know they have both games tonight, ESPN.
01:00
So, if he went anywhere, I would guess it's Winnipeg
01:04
because ESPN has that.
01:06
What a brutal trip.
01:09
Or maybe they're letting him hang out in Vegas today
01:11
for like a day off and he'll do the game tomorrow night.
01:13
But I guess they'd fly him to Winnipeg
01:15
and then fly him back to Vegas.
01:16
Yeah.
01:17
And have him do probably both games
01:19
because they did that a lot in the first round.
01:21
Bob works hard for about six weeks straight
01:23
before they cut him out
01:25
and then they have McDonough do the conference rounds.
01:26
He's year-round.
01:27
He does the Jets.
01:28
He's year-round.
01:29
He does it all.
01:29
College football.
01:31
Bob's everywhere.
01:32
Does he do college rack too?
01:35
I think he does.
01:36
I think he might do some of the –
01:38
in like January, February,
01:39
maybe he does the college rack
01:41
and he gets involved with that too.
01:44
Bob's a pro, man.
01:45
We got to get him on.
01:46
He's an absolute pro.
01:46
We got to get him on C2C.
01:48
Go old school with Bob.
01:50
I go way back with Bob.
01:52
Minus 220 for the Oilers now in the series
01:55
as they get themselves a game in Vegas here already.
01:58
I don't know.
01:59
How many times do I got to say this?
02:01
I mean, I think they're going to win the Stanley Cup.
02:04
I, you know, I hate to say it.
02:07
I just think they are the most dangerous team.
02:11
And look, we'll see what Florida's made of tonight.
02:14
I am not giving up on the Florida Panthers
02:17
just because the Leafs' Willie Nylander had a big game.
02:21
The Leafs are a good team.
02:23
They're capable of winning games.
02:25
Are they capable –
02:26
like we have seen them fold up shop every year
02:30
for 50-plus years.
02:32
They fold up shop like –
02:33
I mean, there's like a hurricane coming
02:35
and they're folding up tents.
02:37
Like they're –
02:37
okay, don't close the camp.
02:38
Let's run for cover.
02:40
So I expect them to, you know,
02:42
at some point start choking, right,
02:44
like they always do.
02:45
Let's see if they hold up their end of the bargain
02:48
and keep winning.
02:49
Let's see if they win tonight.
02:51
Let's see if they go up 2-0 or if they lose tonight.
02:54
If they lose tonight,
02:55
I think you'll see what happens in this series.
02:57
Florida will take it over.
