In my 20+ years of living here I've avoided doing something stupid like going to the Strip for New Year's Eve, but I think I'd have to make an exception for a Golden Knights parade on the Strip.I think Ovechkin is criminally underrated and gets a lot of undeserved shit as a player. But he's also an asshole and I'm not rooting for him or Tom Wilson.
Vegas has James Neal but he's cancelled out by Colin Miller and Reilly Smith. And some other likeable players. The cup celebrations in Vegas would be epic. And it'd be a giant fuck you to all the shitty GMs in this league. So go Knights.
This is where I am. F warshington. I want a Noob Cup.Said it in the other thread but the Tim Taylor toe-in-the-crease incident has led me to an irrational hatred of the Washington Capitals. They’re only behind like Montreal, Toronto and Pittsburgh to me. So I’m rooting for Vegas. I love the story of an expansion team winning in year 1.
Disclaimer- I’d likely be singing a different tune if 2011 didn’t happen though.
(Washington is) only behind like Montreal, Toronto and Pittsburgh to me.
Ditto. Man, I didn't realize he was only 32 (33 this year). It feels like he's weirdly underrated for such a force.I think I'm specifically rooting for Ovie to get one.
Haha exactly the reason I fucking hate them.Said it in the other thread but the Tim Taylor toe-in-the-crease incident has led me to an irrational hatred of the Washington Capitals.

Eh, everyone I hated in Vancouver isn't in Vancouver anymore (Burrows, LaPierre, Torres) or turned themselves into someone I begrudgingly respect (Luongo, the Sedins). Its also the nearest place to me that I can see the Bruins currently.
That reminded me of fucking Holtby and the 2012 series. That Bruins team was good enough to repeat (2nd in goals for and 5th in goals against).Said it in the other thread but the Tim Taylor toe-in-the-crease incident has led me to an irrational hatred of the Washington Capitals.

That 2011 team was probably the most hate able team of all time. But the Bruins ruined them and they’re now a joke. They’re irrelevant now.
Just to make the Tim Taylor-in-crease pain come back again, here is the Cup winning goal!I went back to SCF results and I apparently blacked out the time the Stars beat the Sabres?!??
