Sam Bennett referenced Leonardo DiCaprio when it came to him not wanting to leave. 
It feels as if Bill Zito not winning the Jim Gregory award is going to be similar to how long it took Leo to win an Oscar.

He’s not fucking leaving.

It’s real South Florida, the Florida Panthers did it again!
Back to back Stanley Cup Champions! 
This era belongs to the Cats!
#TimeToHunt
We just witnessed the first hat trick in Florida Panthers Postseason History, and it's in the Cup Clincher. 
Sam Reinhart scores on the EN to complete it. 
4-0 Florida.
FWIW, Conn Smythe votes are final no matter what happens the rest of the way. 
Let's see who wins this once the game goes final.

20 more minutes of shutdown hockey before the Panthers repeat.
#TimeToHunt
FWIW, there's never been a hat trick in Florida Panthers Postseason History. 
Reinhart could be the first if he gets another. 
#TimeToHunt
3-0 Florida! 
An outstanding shift by the top line as they had Edmonton PINNED in their own end, Barkov had a chance earlier in the shift but ran out of real estate, Barkov grabbed the loose puck after a save and Reinhart delfected it in. 
#TimeToHunt
Edmonton got away with a high stick as Bennett was hit up high. 
No penalties called outside of the 4-on-4 in the first. 
#TimeToHunt
Bobrovsky said nah! 
Robs Corey Perry from cutting it to a one-goal deficit. 
Forsling with a slide to prevent a quality pass from McDavid to Perry. 
Bob is on his game.

Gustav. Forsling.

Second period is a go from Sunrise!

2-0 Florida! 
Lundell denies the zone entry, and the Panthers score in transition. 
Eetu, hits Tkachuk the trailer and scored through a screen. 
#TimeToHunt
And that play from Reinhart on McDavid is why he was a Selke finalist. 
My goodness. 
#TimeToHunt
We're gonna get some 4-on-4 Hockey. 
Evander Kane for slashing and Sam Bennett for roughing. 
#TimeToHunt
Panthers are first on the board! 
Edmonton out of sort after Skinner tried handling the puck, Reinhart creates the turnover on Bouchard in the NZ, and an amazing individual effort for the first goal of the game! 
1-0 Panthers. 
#TimeToHunt
It's game time! 
Puck is down and we're underway from Sunrise for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final.

Luongo banged the shit out of that drum!

FWIW.

It’s pouring outside, but inside the Baptist health IcePlex, the Cats are back on the ice for their optional practice.
