Thornton now the best player to never win a cup? As a Sharks fan I hope the management uses this as motivation and go all out to win it next season.

What a beaut telling the fans to get the beers ready. He's gonna have alcohol poisoning for sure. The parade will be hilarious.
Something like this?

Ovechkin's celebration was not better than Ray Bourque.

I did get a 1994 Messier vibe from his celebration, though.

I mean, he isn't just an elite winger... he may be the best goal scorer to ever play the game. How many teams have that on their roster?
You'd pretty much have to be Ovechkin, i.e. an all time great winger, to be considered the corner stone of a team with centers as good as Backstrom and Kuznetsov.
The "can't build around a winger" was more the narrative for the Leafs back when they asked Kessel to make Bozak work as a 1C. The narrative for Washington's failure has mostly been choking, not lack of attention paid to the center position. Or goalies.

I'm a Jackets fan. Ovechkin's in the same division. And I still have roots as an Islander fan, way back somewhere, so I always want to punch Dale Hunter in the face. I should be hating this.

But Ovechkin is an amazing player. An unlike Crosby, he doesn't whine and act like a little s**t when things don't go his way. He's been a great ambassador for the sport, and I'm glad he finally got there.

How did he win? Wasnt he supposed to be a loser who always chokes?

Happy for Ovy. He knows he will never be held in the same category as the Kid but I'm glad he gets to hoist the cup 1 time.

Why don’t you get a jump on the Pittsburgh rendition of the Phil Kessel Cap Dump Redux Threadfest. Who knew the Pens needed Fleury and Fleury needed the Pens. Enjoy the parade. We’ll see you next season.
