He was awesome. Nice to see them win, though I think Kuznetsov might have got jobbed on the Conn Smythe

Great way to win a cup, come from behind in the 3rd!
Gotta say, i felt.... 🤔 really frikin happy for Ovechkin! Caps have lotsa talent/experience. How long before we're that deep? 7 years?

Cherry was the only one on Hockey Night to say Holtby deserved it

... everyone else said one of the Russkies.

Never change Cherry! :lol:

But yeahno, Ovie deserved the Conn Smythe, he did it all this year, great leadership...

I'd say sooner than that, but I'm not one to make predictions. :)

Yeah, if it weren't for Bettman boycotting the Olympics he might have had an Olympic gold to go with it and joined the elusive Triple Gold Club. He already has three World Championship golds. Bäckström has two.
Anyway I’m guessing the caps don’t get an invite to the white house considering Canadians are a now a security threat ;)

And the GWG scored by - a Dane...? :shock:
Also the first Dane ever to win the Stanley Cup.

The cup will stay here in Gävle for two days, both Bäckström and Djoos are locals.
Bäckis will probably take it to NickBack Arena, a smallish hockey stadium in the part of town where he grow up, that he paid for. :lol:

Golden Knights Sbisa reverted back to Canuck Sbisa in the third. I guess we were right that it couldn’t last, even if it almost did.
Vegas had an incredible season, they should feel good about their season even with tonight’s disappointment.
Pizza was definitely delivering in Game 7.

I couldn't be happier for Ovechkin. I would have been even happier if one of the Knights "Tom Wilson'd" Tom Wilson.

Lol! Ovechkin is 32, Bäckström is 30...

Ten? :drink:

I mean, the team is loaded with young talent, but you also need experience to win the cup, and we just lost ours.

Sbisa picked a bad game to be Sbisa for sure. Two giveaways, two goals against. That’s a double cheese pizza right there.
