Oilers parents contribute to emotional Stanley Cup hype video

With game 1 on the horizon, it's important to remember what's at stake here. The Stanley Cup is the hardest trophy to win in all of sports and it's an absolute battle, but the Oilers are looking to say that they've outlasted everyone else and come out on top.

It's easy to forget how much the cup means to not only a city and fanbase, but to every individual player on a team. Every guy on the Oilers has worked so hard to get here and it's their lifelong dream to be raising the cup. The Oilers released a video to show just how much winning would mean for each player and their families that they share the victory with.

This is an amazing video, put out right before the start of game 1. It puts into perspective just how much this means to the guys and how supportive their families are in the background. It's amazing to see the people who mean the most to the players encouraging them along in their journey.

Fans have never been more hyped than they are right now, as there's no feeling quite like seeing your team on the cusp of winning it all. It's that time of the season where fans are making highlight videos of the Oilers' season, and there was one absolute masterpiece made by a fan that has been making the rounds on social media recently.

There's nothing quite like playoff hockey, this is what everyone dreams for. The players in the finals have spent their whole lives dreaming of a cup, their whole careers chasing it, and their whole future pushing for just one more.

Oilers fans have waited so long to see their team hoist the cup again, and have the support of all of Canada behind them. The Oilers have a chance at cementing themselves in greatness this year and find themselves against a team who is just as driven, in the Florida Panthers. It's what we love about hockey, and it's why this sport continues to prove itself as the best the world had to offer.
