OT: The Official HF Bolts Back-To-Back Stanley Cup Thread

[Five Alarm Fire]

Sergachev making fun of the "18M over the cap" crowd in the comments

 

[MattM92]

WE f***ING DID IT BOYS! The main boards are salt mines right now.

Enjoy it all lads, it's been a hell of a ride and we don't know when we will see anything like this again. This team was truly special, going to go down in history as one of the all time great ones. We will see how we look after this summer, but the backbone will still be one of the best in the league. All eyes on you now JBB, retool it and let's see how quickly you can get us back into the show.

Alright alright Time to ask the important questions. Better HF Conn Smythe peeformance?

@LEAFANFORLIFE23 or @MahomesforPresident ?

Leaf, no doubts.

Mahomes gave us the double win though

 

[Fabiobest]

Killorn has a broken fibula...

Cap Cheaters.

Ok. Serious question about the one-man dynasty.

In 2019, Maroon was listed as "Patrick Maroon" on the cup engraving. In 2020, he was just "Pat Maroon". What does he get this year?

Congrats to the Bolts OrganiZation, you did it on the ice for a back to back and looked dominant doing it. Congrats!

 

[Felonious Python]

Cal Foote qualifies to get his name on the cup.

 

[kanadalainen]

Congratulations Tampa. The composition of your team was super strong this year, and you beat some great teams to win the cup.

Its not easy to repeat as winners in this league.

*

As In
2004 Stanley Cup Champions

2020 Stanley Cup Champions
*
*only because of covid 19


2021 Stanley Cup Champions

*only because 60 billion over cap


Kucherov 2018-19 Art Ross Winner
*
*only because McDavid was injured


Stamkos 60 goal season 2011-12

Anyways. Talk to you all again next summer.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Ok. Serious question about the one-man dynasty.

In 2019, Maroon was listed as "Patrick Maroon" on the cup engraving. In 2020, he was just "Pat Maroon". What does he get this year?

Fat Maroon

 

[Felonious Python]

The team has 52 spots they can fill on the cup this year. 23 are players who qualify.

Cirelli, Coleman, Colton, Goodrow, Gourde, Johnson, Joseph, Killorn, Kucherov, Maroon, Palat, Point, Stamkos (C)
Cernak, Foote, Hedman, McDonagh, Rutta, Savard, Schenn, Sergachev
Vasilevskiy, McElhinney

Based on staff who got on last year:
Vinik, Griggs, BriseBois, Murray, Pushor, Roest, Darche
Cooper, Halpern, Lalonde, Zettler, Jean, Garlock, Kirwan, Lambert
Mulligan, Poirier, Rivas, Rogers, Thill, Kennedy, Berger
Belec, Koharsky, Peterson

That's another 25, so 48. There are 4 spots left.

Dir. of Player Development, JP Cote is the highest ranked guy not on it. Then assistant directors, Rosso and Whelen.

One final spot left, with no clear front-runner. Thunderbug?

With the shut out and Kuch being shut down for a few games, it had to go this way.

Patty or Rick. He's gotta change it every year.

 

[Felonious Python]

Patty or Rick. He's gotta change it every year.

Once he's out of variants on his name. He can go with P. Marooon.

Then just add an 'o' every year.

Congratulations and Welcome to the Back-to-Back Club!

[CupsOverCash]

Thanks brother! It’s been an honor to play on a team with you for all these years.

Hard to pick one guy, you’re all amazing people!


@CupsOverCash Come over here you beautiful bastard!

Thank you! Feels amazing to go back to back! Gonna have to pass it on to @Coopers Gum for making the trip down and getting to see his team lift the cup!

 

[dbieon12]

Of teams that have won at least 2 Cups (14), 8 have won back-to-back Cups at least once counting TBL. Only 3 have won 3 or more in a row (Montreal, Toronto, New York Islanders).

 

[StaySalty]

Thank you all for this incredible run. It's been an absolute blast these last 10 months. Also thank you @TheDaysOf 04 those avatars are awesome!!
