Hawks win the 2015 Stanley Cup!

[LarmerAmonteSeabrook]

If I remember it right the other books came out just before Thanksgiving

Word to the wise: I got the 2010 one for $23 during a Barnes and Nobel Christmas sale!

Anybody planning a visit to Spring Grove, IL any time soon?

And Kimmo got one helluva warm welcome back in Finland:

Phil Pritchard claims 10,000+.

 

[SamiToKasper]

I was there easy 10,000+ people. Nice loose atmosphere, great for Kimmo.

A bad phone picture from about middle of the pack from Kuopio. That was fun.

I'm having troubles finding a shot glass I'd like. I have the clear 2010 and 2013 Stanley Cup Champions/Stanley Cup Final shot glasses. But, I can't find a matching 2015 one. I don't want the red ones I keep seeing everywhere.

Found a video posted with excellent quality. (minus the bands playing earlier) Nice tribute.



Teravainen and Raanta appear around the 8:50 mark for those who want to see them.

My hat finally shipped on Wednesday. It only took three weeks, I tried to stay patient. I should get it Monday or Tuesday. I'm pumped.

My hat finally got here today (about time). The patience definitely paid off, and I'm proud to say I now have all 3 Championship hats! All of them are beauty's.

I got the scf 2015 patch (final patch not the champions patch) sewn on my authentic by triple threat sports. $15 plus $6 to ship one way and $10 the other (including tax). Well worth it if youre gonna get the patch since its $15 everywhere and then to have someone sew it on is likely $10 or so, at least. I'll pay the $6 all day to have it done by the people who used to do the actual teams jerseys and not have to leave my house at all for it lol.

I got the DVD in the mail today. I just got done watching it. Not too shabby.

Not too far removed, but feels further out from the Cup win than it really is. Still can't believe our guys managed it this year; what a special group of guys. Hoping I can see another 3 Chicago Cup wins in my lifetime (heck, I'd be happy with a single, who's kidding?), what a treat that would be.

The vid of every single GWG in all 3 runs was awesome by the way. Just goes to show how instrumental some guys were during the runs. Byfuglien always seemed to be in the right spot in '10. Seabrook with some absolutely clutch goals in '13 and '15. Vermette coming up huge in '15.

Speaking of Vermette, today was his day with the Cup, and he got a good crowd at his hometown in Quebec:

Got the Bluray on Friday. Great stuff, worth every penny. Besides the 2015 film included on the DVD, the Blu also includes the 2013 film.

Antoine Vermette was so absolutely clutch in the playoffs. I salute him!

Just bought the 2015 Stanley Cup DVD on youtube. (only $9.99) Couldn't resist. About to watch this bad boy.

 

[LarmerAmonteSeabrook]

Was the 2015 Stanley Cup Championship DVD played in its entirety at the Remembering the 2015 Stanley Cup Playoffs session at Blackhawks Convention, or was there anything extra included on the DVD?

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Richards having some fun on PEI.

was the 2013 film not previously released?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I thought they didn't release 2013 DVD outside of when it was included as part of that Book purchase

 

[cbh]

was the 2013 film not previously released?

I believe the 2013 film was made available only as a download on places like iTunes and Amazon...so, until now, previously unavailabe to collectors on disc

I thought they didn't release 2013 DVD outside of when it was included as part of that Book purchase

Pretty sure that the 2013 DVD released with book was a different film ("17 Serconds"). This version is the "NHL 2013 Stanley Cup Champions" previously unavailabe on disc (see above).



edit:
As far as I know, these are the only official DVD discs released of the Blackhawks....




Chicago Blackhawks - Great Moments and Classic Games (6 disc set)
Chicago Blackhawks Winter Classic at Wrigley Field 2009
Stanley Cup Champions 2010
Stanley Cup Champions 2013 (download only, now available with the 2015 Bluray)

Versteeg's day going's well:

 

[hisgirlfriday]

[Sarava]

still cant believe I saw/touched the stanley cup on saturday.

Awesome. How did you manage that?

 

[hisgirlfriday]

jay blunk's parents live in a small town outside bloomington-normal and there was a public event there saturday morning. it was great. stood in line an hour for about 30 seconds of cup time/picture taking but still worth it. guess they had done it in past cup years but I missed it before. got to see the keeper of the cup and there was uniformed hawks police around the scene too. lol.

also, two separate guys walked up carrying blues jerseys while I was in line but despite some grumbling they were mostly left alone as far as I could tell. was glad of that as they looked kind of humiliated crashing the hawks event as it was.
