Around the NHL - Congrats to the Tampa Bay Lightning!

[kb]

Tampa's depth is unreal. Top down. Leafs aren't in the same sentence.

They are one and done though.

They are one and done though.

Maybe, they'll have to win in a different way next year/next few, but they're also adding another top tier in Stamkos.

Boy is Hughson ever terrible to listen to

 

[Menzinger]

Well deserved win by a very well built team.

Particularly happy for Schenn

Congrats to the Lightning on the cup. They finally get one after being a great team for a while. Well done to the NHL for pulling this off with no cases. Credit where credit is due.
However this series was not interesting really and the quality is slipping for the NHL.

Let the action begin now.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Way to go Tampa.

 

[TMLeafer]

Luke Schenn cup champ.

Oh the irony that Schenn now also has a cup before the Leafs ever get to sniff at even a chance at the finals.

 

[Gallagbi]

Really felt like it was their year in the playoffs, they just dominated basically every series. Top line was the best in the playoffs, depth was there upfront and Hedman took his play to another level.

 

[Carltons Cup]

CMack wins a cup.

How bittersweet! Good on him.

 

[Warden of the North]

Luke Schenn cup champ.

Does this mean I can break out my Schenn jersey again?

 

[TMLeafer]

Game ops guy would be a legend if he plays a certain sound when Gary speaks.

 

[ToneDog]

What no boooos for Gary.

 

[Gabriel426]

If I tell you in the beginning of the season, the Cup will be rewarded in Canada to a Blue and White team? Would u guess it is the Jets or the Leafs?

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Good riddance to an all around awful season.

Here’s to next year though tbh, I ain’t expecting much anymore with our gutless core

 

[Gallagbi]

Good call on the Hedman Conn Smythe

 

[Byron Bitz]

The reason our division rival Tampa is hoisting the cup right now and the Leafs are golfing is because Tampa got their stars locked down to good contracts and Dubas failed to do that.

What no boooos for Gary.

They have a few on NBC.

Thar's not the reason.

 

[mikeyz]

My God I wish Marner was Point.

Marner is nowhere.... And I mean NOWHERE near Points level.

 

[Menzinger]

This is by far the most noticeable for the lack of fans in the building

 

[Gallagbi]

Thar's not the reason.

They were on great contracts last year when they were swept too...

Exactly.

 

[TheFloater]

Look at that, Luke Schenn wearing blue and white while hoisting the cup.

 

[Steven1562]

Leafs 52 years and counting. With our core looking soft as hell every year. Don't know when this will end.

Boy is Hughson ever terrible to listen to

His clothes could be on fire and I'm pretty sure he would sound the same way.
