Stanley Cup Finals Thread

I think I'd just pull Bishop now.

 

[cshea]

Guess Cooper is going to wait until October to pull Bishop?

 

[LogansDad]

Holy shit Crawford

 

[The Napkin]

Glove hand, left pad, whatever.

 

[kenneycb]

Completely agree with this. Best in the NHL by far.

But what's a celly?

Something you send texts with?

 

[kenneycb]

celebrations

Never change Stripes.  Never change.

 

[TFP]

Tampa is gassed.

 

[Norm Siebern]

Congats to Chicago, give them an inch and they amaze. I can't remember the last team I saw that was so good at capitalizing. They are the anti-squander. just amazing at their ability to do this. If they were a baseball team they would be 4 for 4 with RISP.

 

[Ed Hillel]

lol icing 2 man advantage

 

[kenneycb]

Something you send texts with?

Cellophane?

 

[BoSoxFink]

Never change Stripes.  Never change.

ha I guess I missed something

 

[LogansDad]

Pooh

 

[cshea]

I'm of the opinion that if you ice the puck with the goalie pulled, you shouldn't be allowed to put the goalie back in for the faceoff.

 

[TFP]

Feel good story tonight will be Kimmo getting the Cup.

16 years in the NHL? Lost to Kane in 2010, now might have him score the final goal this year. Cool symmetry.

 

[kenneycb]

It's a very obscure joke that mabrowndog didn't understand celly.  Not even sure if anyone outside of myself remembers that heady time.

Why? Nobody is trying to ice the puck in that situation.

shut your mouth. The Bruins don't deserve to be here god dammit! Ottawa deserves it really

 

[cshea]

It is a line change. You can't change up under any other circumstances, so why now?
 
Whatever's left of Bishop's groin will be completely torn with all the skating from the net to the bench he's been doing here.

 

[soxhop411]

Wow, cup still isn't there yet?

Have you seen the fucking weather in Chicago?

 

[TFP]

The Cup isn't at the rink yet? This should be interesting.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Man I wish the Bruins turned into the Blackhawks rather than dropping off.

 

[soxhop411]

The Cup isn't at the rink yet? This should be interesting.

It's really bad weather in Chicago

 

[LogansDad]

Defensive clinic for the Blackhawks.  Not even a chance for Tampa.

 

[cshea]

Dynasty.

 

[scotian1]

Well congrats to the Black Hawks. Duncan Keith for Conn Smythe?

 

[kenneycb]

Have you seen the fucking weather in Chicago?

If only they had any idea that would be the case.

 

[cshea]

Send Bettman out to fillibuster while we await the Cup. That'll go over well, I'm sure.

 

[kenneycb]

Well congrats to the Black Hawks. Duncan Keith for Conn Smythe?

No brainer.

 

[LogansDad]

Dynasty.

Not even a question.

 

[cshea]

Next year, boys. Next year.

 

[TFP]

It's really bad weather in Chicago

Umm, the Cup should have been in Chicago as soon as Game 4 was over. This is inexcusable.

 

[soxhop411]

Kings are winning it all next year!

StanleyCup winners:
2012: Kings
2013: Blackhawks
2014: Kings
2015: Blackhawks

 

[Norm Siebern]

Congrats to the Blackhawks. Very impressive. Fantastic coaching, rise to the occassion, and Crawford is nails. Congrats.

 

[TFP]

Man I wish the Bruins turned into the Blackhawks rather than dropping off.

Things could have been so different in 2013. Damn.

it really is funny to think of how much that one series changed things. The Blackhawks become the team with the chance at the dynasty instead of the Bruins. Bruins so damn close to forcing a game 7 too there. Gahhhh

 

[cshea]

Things could have been so different in 2013. Damn.

Game 1 is the one that kills me. They had that one in the fucking bag. Up 2 with 10 minutes left, then Oduya's harmless shot deflects in off of Ference and woke up Chicago.

 

[kenneycb]

Things could have been so different in 2013. Damn.

Randomly turned on the TV and saw the Bolland goal today.  Did not enjoy that.

 

[The Napkin]

Have you seen the fucking weather in Chicago?

20 some thousand people, 2 teams, media, and arena workers all managed to get there. You don't think it's a little odd that they wouldn't have looked at the weather and left a little early? Like a few hours ago?

 

[BoSoxFink]

Pretty ridiculous that the Blackhawks did this playing with pretty much 4 d men only.

 

[kenneycb]

Game 1 is the one that kills me. They had that one in the fucking bag. Up 2 with 10 minutes left, then Oduya's harmless shot deflects in off of Ference and woke up Chicago.

And Kaspars fucking Daugivans.  I'll forever hate the Latvian national team because of that jabroni.

 

[BoSoxFink]

I like to score?

 

[TFP]

Game 4 kills me. When Boychuk scored to tie it I thought they had it. Would have been up 3-1.

And yeah, Kaspars Daugavins.

 

[scotian1]

Don't understand was the Cup wasn't at the rink first thing in the morning or even yesterday.

 

[kenneycb]

I like to score?

NO YOU LIKE TO MAKE A FUCKING EXTRA MOVE WHEN YOU HAVE A WIDE OPEN NET YOU DUMB PIECE OF SHIT SHITTY LATVIAN HOCKEY PLAYER.

 

[BoSoxFink]

NO YOU LIKE TO MAKE A FUCKING EXTRA MOVE WHEN YOU HAVE A WIDE OPEN NET YOU DUMB PIECE OF SHIT SHITTY LATVIAN HOCKEY PLAYER.

I like to win!!

Literally the minute Game 4 ended you knew the Cup needed to be in the building tonight. That was Wednesday night. Inexcusable.

 

[TFP]

Don't understand was the Cup wasn't at the rink first thing in the morning or even yesterday.

What about Thursday of last week!!
