“We want the cup!”: Edmonton Oilers force winner-take-all Stanley Cup final with game 7

Thousands of deliriously happy fans of the Edmonton Oilers roared as one Friday as the hometown blue and orange ran over the Florida Panthers to set up a winner-take-all Game 7 in the Stanley Cup final.

“We want the cup! We want the cup!” chanted fans inside Rogers Place, while the Oilers circled at centre ice with sticks skyward saluting all after the 5-1 win.

Outside the arena, fans whooped, hollered and cheered below the main viewing screen dominating the plaza known as the Moss Pit — named for the team’s late, much beloved locker room attendant Joey Moss — as the team’s signature La Bamba victory song played.

Global’s Jeff Semple has more from the midst of the fan chaos in downtown Edmonton.
