Ovechkin has Finally Won the Cup!

[MrSnrub]

Ovechkin hoisting the Cup is one of the all-time great hockey moments.

It's not only on EA sports, It's not a dream, It's THE REAL LIFE

Glad Ovie got his Cup, Backstrom too.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

I concur. Bourque's not close IMO

Well this is asinine. Same as Penguin fans who are already trying to minimize Ovechkin's accomplishment here.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

Grats to Ovie!

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.

Yeah... Only Marchand today brings the same combination of dirt + skill as Crosby.

 

[AussieCapsFan]

He's in the top 10 ever to play the game . Seeing him win a Cup is one of the most amazing things YOU, yes YOU, will ever see as a hockey fan. Beyond a shadow of a doubt....

Do I need to tell you why? Because of heart and soul, because of goals scored, because of passion and the blood, sweat and tears he's left on the ice....that's why he's top 10

 

[Deluded Puck]

And now his haters have nothing left to grasp at

You say this and yet I’ve read “now he needs to win it twice”.

Goalposts are shifting as if Chris Krieder is crashing the net.

 

[Sam Spade]

Nothing negative anyone can ever say about Ovechkin from now until the day he retires will mean shit to Caps fans, believe that!

LAS VEGAS -- Alex Ovechkin is a Stanley Cup champion. The "but" is dead.

He's no longer Dan Marino. Or Ted Williams. Or Karl Malone. He is a star player whose statistical achievements -- 607 goals, putting him 19th all time at 32 years old -- will never again be counterbalanced by the lack of a championship.

The 'but' stops here: Ovechkin's 14-year Cup chase is over

 

[Sam Spade]

He was heading off the ice when he spotted Bondra and detoured right to him with the Cup.

Tweets were coming out that anyone that wanted a picture with him got one.

 

[RageQuit77]

Soooooo happy for Ovi!

After all those years and loads of (mostly) unfair and non-sensical BS poured upon him. Great! The Great 8!

Ovechkin hoisting the Cup is one of the all-time great hockey moments.

Best Cup raising since Selanne imo

 

[Iceman]

Haven’t seen a happier guy since Messier in ’94.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Ovie smashed the last 2 critiques the haters had for him.

The Rocket check
Conn Smythe check
Stanley Cup check

 

[qwertyaas]

I'm actually happy for the Caps. Seeing Ovi lift the cup was great - his raw emotion this whole run was really refreshing to see.

 

[Pilky01]

That was one of the best Cup celebrations I have ever watched. Couldn't stop smiling for those guys.

Love a feel good story like this. Those players deserved it.

And to be clear, Vegas winning would NOT have been a feel good story.

i've seen like 5 of these comments and they are so dumb. he could have retired 4 years ago and still been a first-ballot hall of famer, you dinguses.

that's 10000% true.


However, if there was still that 1% (the dinguses you mentioned) remaining that even question whether he's HOF-worthy or not, I think this Cup Win erases that 1% and makes it a slam-dunk that he's going into the Hall.

 

[glenwo2]

And choker Holtby...

Indeed....

 

[glenwo2]

Kovulchuk is probably wondering where it all went wrong for him while: Datsyuk, Malkin and now Ovi all have cups

Hope the traitor never wins a cup. NEVER.

 

[glenwo2]

Hey the Conn Smythe neat thanks lets just put this over here WHERE'S THE ****ING CUP

-Ovi probably

Yeah I saw that.


He was like "Okay. I'll just put this in my trophy case with the rest of my awards. Now where's the Damn Cup???"

 

[glenwo2]

Man I need a wallpaper for my computer of him lifting the cup.

How about this?

Very happy for Ovechkin. Great season for the Caps and LVGK!

 

[BigFatCat999]

So, I woke up and Barry Trotz and Ovi are still Cup winners. It sucked watching the Preds lose but this, this melted my stone heart.

 

[kuzy92]

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.

Oh please!!

Guys like you are the reason why Internet forums tend to be toxic as hell.
