00:00And with a dominant performance in Sunrise a night ago,
00:04the Panthers certainly looked a part of that reigning Stanley Cup champ,
00:08and maybe the present one as well.
00:10An impressive and decisive victory, DRS,
00:13to take a 2-1 series advantage over the Edmonton Oilers in game number three.
00:186-1 the winner for Florida,
00:21who scored multiple goals in each of the three periods,
00:24including opening up a 2-0 lead after the opening 20 minutes.
00:30Sam Bennett tickled the twine for the third consecutive game in this series.
00:35Florida's leading scorer throughout this playoffs
00:37in the entirety of the Stanley Cup postseason now has 14,
00:42and Florida has a 2-1 series lead over your Canadian team,
00:47who committed 21 penalties last night, DRS.
00:50Are you flustered by what you saw out of the Panthers in game number three?
00:55You have a 35 total penalties.
00:56And also understand this, when the game starts to get out of reach,
00:59that's when guys start to take liberties, and the refs understand that,
01:01and they start to call penalties, and that's really what happens here.
01:03But absolute, you know, ram job, I should say, from the beginning,
01:06because here's what happens.
01:08You get into your own building.
01:09What do you want from an opposing team?
01:11I need to quiet this crowd down
01:13and eventually start to turn this crowd against its home team,
01:17which means score a goal or two early, take the crowd out of it.
01:19That didn't happen right away.
01:21And my goodness, like Brad Marchand,
01:22he doesn't know he's going to retire or not retire.
01:24The guy's damn near the best player on the ice
01:26on a night-to-night basis in the playoffs.
01:28It's just what he's done throughout his entire career,
01:30and he gets the part he started with scoring within a minute of this game
01:33to really set it on its edge.
01:35A 6-1 final, which was really surprising to me,
01:38but you know how you make it a 6-1 final,
01:39give up a goal in front of the first minute here
01:41and let that crowd get into it right off the bat,
01:432-0 by the end of the first period.
01:45Even though you got an Edmonton goal right away to start the second period,
01:49they're back in it on the power play.
01:50It just wasn't enough, too much firepower for the Florida Panthers last night.
