The Final

[ifmanis5]

Flames fans are happy at least.

 

[NYCSox]

I hope all twelve of their fans show up at the strip mall for the parade.

 

[Ed Hillel]

The ref just watched the puck get iced lol

 

[DeadlySplitter]

As outplayed as EDM was tonight, one Skinner softie away from OT. Annoying

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

I’ve grown to increasingly hate the Panthers. This sucks. Edmonton just didn’t have the gas or the depth to get it done.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Was icing waived off there? I have seen it called for lot less lollygagging.

 

[JOBU]

Okay. Just bring out the jug so I can go to bed

 

[Ale Xander]

Well, happy for Mr. Melrose

 

[Bongorific]

Eh. Fuck those guys.

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

Sweeney should’ve waited and offered them Ullmark.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Was icing waived off there? I have seen it called for lot less lollygagging.

It wasn't even waived off, the ref just stared at it, made no motion whatsoever.

And I don't think he was lollygagging, they were all gassed.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

As always, the lesson is that diving, whining and working the refs usually works.

 

[Jordu]

Sports sucks sometimes

 

[DeadlySplitter]

This Florida crowd is fairly subdued for a game 7 SCF win

 

[Ed Hillel]

Oh the ref across the ice waived it off. Lame.

 

[AB in DC]

How does a team named Oilers run out of fuel like that.

 

[wiffleballhero]

bummer

 

[Mystic Merlin]

This Florida crowd is fairly subdued for a game 7 SCF win

I mean, this is the same crowd that sort of goes to Heat games.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Duplicate.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

This Florida crowd is fairly subdued for a game 7 SCF win

They’re very nervous about Game 8.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

A Canadian team has not won the cup since the England It’s Coming Home song was written.

 

[McBride11]

Can the Bs rescindd the trade to Ottawa for Ully? Edm may send Draisaitl now!

 

[Ale Xander]

Duplicate.

Top song on the Billboard 100 when the last Canadian team won was "That's the Way Love Goes" by Janet.

 

[cshea]

Knoblach booted the last 5 minutes. Ran 97 and 29 into the ground, needed to get the goalie out early in the sequence when there was chaos in the Florida end.

 

[Ale Xander]

Can the Bs rescindd the trade to Ottawa for Ully? Edm may send Draisaitl now!

Would we get 2 working hands or just 1?

 

[FisksFinger]

Unfortunate ending. Hate the Panthers and that smug prick Maurice

Oilers had so many chances in the last 5 but just couldn’t get a bounce to go their way. Not to mention the Bouchard rocket off the post earlier, just wasn’t their night

 

[Greg29fan]

Heat and Panthers both blew 3-0 leads but won the series regardless in the last two years (sorry if that's too soon with the Heat).

 

[JOBU]

Unfortunate ending. Hate the Panthers and that smug prick Maurice

Can’t believe I actually liked the guy when he coached the whalers. But I was 13 then and stupider than shit.

 

[shawnrbu]

Hardly any boos for Bettman.

 

[soxhop411]

How does a team named Oilers run out of fuel like that.

This is a. Dad joke if i have ever seen one

 

[Ale Xander]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Salem's Lot]

They gave McDavid the Conn Smythe?

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

McDavid?! Suck one

 

[Salem's Lot]

Did he not come out for it? My sound went out.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Hardly any boos for Bettman.

He ain’t Manfred.

 

[BlackJack]

Did he not come out for it? My sound went out.

They muted the chant

 

[AB in DC]

Did he not come out for it? My sound went out.

I think ABC muted all the "Bullshit" calls from the crowd.

 

[Ale Xander]

What is going on with Gary's eyes?

 

[deythur]

Does Bettman have early Parkinsons?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Heat and Panthers both blew 3-0 leads but won the series regardless in the last two years (sorry if that's too soon with the Heat).

Nobody even cares about that now, no worries.

#HeatCulture

 

[JOBU]

Does Bettman have early Parkinsons?

It’s funny you said that cause I was thinking the same thing

 

[kenneycb]

Okposo made $500k tonight from his Buffalo contract.

 

[joe dokes]

Knoblach booted the last 5 minutes. Ran 97 and 29 into the ground, needed to get the goalie out early in the sequence when there was chaos in the Florida end.

Exactly. That was when they emptied their tanks. By the time Skinner got pulled, the big5 were toast.

 

[Sandwich Pick]

Can’t believe I actually liked the guy when he coached the whalers. But I was 13 then and stupider than shit.

Teenage me never thought he would see Paul Maurice and Rick Bowness coaching in 3 finals in a 5 year span.

 

[Murby]

As much as this stinks, it is interesting to me that you can have a group of pretty good players win. Roll your lines, get timely goals, get some saves. Also, dive all over the ice & throw some cheap shots. You don’t need an insane level superstar.

The Bruins can do this.

 

[ifmanis5]

A good, close game but not an all-time classic by any means.

 

[FisksFinger]

A good, close game but not an all-time classic by any means.

Agreed

 

[Ed Hillel]

Luongo lol

 

[NYCSox]

God this sucks. Can’t wait for their parade. What are they going to do - drive a couple of trucks around the parking lot?

 

[SoxJox]

God this sucks. Can’t wait for their parade. What are they going to do - drive a couple of trucks around the parking lot?

Well, the post-game on-ice celebration was about as subdued as it could be. Maybe they should have cued up ACDC's Thunderstruck (although that may have been taboo given Tampa Bay's leanings).

 

[skidmark21]

Kind of funny to see Evan Rodrigues beat Conor McDavid. They would have won a National Championship together with Eichel, but McDavid ended up spurning BU.
