Snoop Dogg performed at Rogers Place in Edmonton last night, and made a bold claim about the Stanley Cup Final series.
EDMONTON -- It's another do-or-die game tonight.
The Edmonton Oilers could become the third team to ever to make the ultimate comeback. That comeback being, down 3-0 in the Stanley Cup Final to even up the series and force Game seven.
Before the game on Thursday night, Snoop Dogg performed at Rogers Place.
Snoop Dogg.During his performance he was sporting a Georges Laraque Oilers jersey. At one point he made a bold claim about Game six, "tomorrow night the Oilers are winning in this f***ing building. I can see the future."
The crowd then began chanting, "let's go Oilers!"
This is the first time in 18 years that the Oilers have made it to the Cup Final. The last time was the heartbreaking 2006 run. The Carolina Hurricanes ended up the victors at the conclusion of their seven game series.
The two other teams to force a Game seven after starting the series in a 3-0 deficit are the 1945 Detroit Red Wings and the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs. The Maple Leafs were the only team to win the Stanley Cup.
Edmonton Oilers.The Florida Panthers will be more than motivated to end the series and fulfill their Stanley Cup dreams. Only time will tell.
