Nothing to be ashamed of you had a great season, and spoiled my Winnipeg Jets Stanley cup finals. LOL

Yup, and for an inaugural season, it was great to watch. I'm looking forward to the encore.

GO CAPS! DC Metro area is buzzing right now.

Good job not tearing down the city like those guys two hours north.

Congratulation to the Capitals.
Vegas will come down to earth next season.

Ovechkin threw out the first pitch in today's Nationals game

Ovechkin threw out the first pitch in today's Nationals game

He hasn't put down the Cup or slept in 3 days

Ovechkin threw out the first pitch in today's Nationals game

He was high the 1st one and asked for a do over and threw a strike

They are all drunk in a private suite signing We are the Champions and showing off the Cup to the crowd

The parade on Tuesday will be insane down the Mall

It was Vegas' first season, how do we know that's not their regular play?!

1-They will have tapes on them.
2-Hard to duplicate what they did.
3-Other teams will improve.
Can they do it again? maybe and if they do they will exit faster.

I hope that will be the same for those ugly Egals.

Neither have the Egals. Here's the most recent episode.

I do not like the Domi for Galchenyuk trade ... Galchenyuk is not a centre and that's the failure of Bergeron in not getting a front line centre for Galchenyuk to play with. Bergeron is a terrible GM and should be canned.

That's why Montreal doesn't win anymore ... they no longer make good trades. I can't believe my 2 favourite sports have gone 25 plus years without a sniff of a championship ... argh.

Damn, Lukin, your Habs. Bergevin is a POS. Everyone that follows hockey knows how bad your team needs a C. MTL fans were floating trade proposals on HF all season for every team's #1 C prospect for Paciorrety. I feel bad for your team, Ottawa as well. You guys drew the #3 pick, no? The Montreal market is just so demanding (like Toronto) that it's hard to find a competent GM talent to want to go there. But he speaks French!

As an Angels fan (baseball), I can relate with having to follow two (mostly) futile organizations for the better part of the past two decades (or more, in the case of our Boys). We're due, Lukin! My Angels and your Habs.

(Full disclosure, not the biggest Habs due to '93 )

 

[Trouty]

I would never, ever utter the above post at my Kings site. Lol

Don't tell on me. And if the Kings play Montreal in the Finals, well, you know...

A number 1 centre should be a priority yes. I somehow feel Bergeron will reach at the number 3 for a centre. At number 3 I like the Boston college kid ... I can't spell his name. I'd trade Pax as well. He is not a great captain and very inconsistent. 93' what a gutsy call by Demers to check the stick for legality. That one decision by the coach changed the entire series and cost Gretzky another cup ... I know many didn't agree with Demers ... but he did what he had to to.

We just had a 4 page discussion on the whole McSorley stick incident not a week or two ago (at other site). Forgot what brought it up. I think it was the 25th anniversary of that Finals.

@Trouty I'm also a Tiger fan ... no WS since '84 ... the Celtics are on the upswing though. Hopefully Harbaugh will get the wolverines straightened out. At least I have my hometown OHL team the Windsor Spitfires...3 Memorial Cups in the last 10 years or so...and starting to load up with talent again.
