Post-Game Talk: The Colorado Avalanche wins the Stanley Cup!

[RoyIsALegend]

f***, we were so good.

 

[Avs9296]

Ahh, it hurts to think about. What a wagon of a team we were last year. At least we got that cup.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Everyone should watch this again. Miss ya Landy, miss ya Peter.

 

[Pokecheque]

Ah...memories.

Both my dogs were severely ill at the time and I knew I didn't have much time left with them, soooooo thankful the Avs got it done on June 26th because I would not have had the mental or emotional capacity to handle a game seven. I might not have even watched. I lost them two days after the Avs won it all. Hard to believe it's almost been a year.

f***, we were so good.

One of the most dominant runs in recent memory. What a joke this season has been

This thread's gonna gain a whole lot of traction this summer

Wasn't a joke. They won 51 games and won the division. Three players had historic seasons.

[Colorado Avalanche]

For Colorado we could say that about every draft pick which is higher than #10.

Let's sell the farm of draft picks.

Did ESPN+ pull down the replays for last years cup final? I was trying to go back and watch the games and they don't appear to be up there anymore. It's a huge bummer if they did.

Yeah. ESPN and NHL.TV don't keep things forever anymore. Back when I had Center Ice on Dish Network, I remember them keeping games in a vault that had like the last sesaon and all of the current season games. After that only a few curated games were retained in what they called the Vault. The Vault had games from the 50s on.

The only problem with the Vault was the edited out fights. So watching Fight Night at the Lewis Arena was a drastically different experience. You see the first fist fly, whistle blow, and then a faceoff at center ice with both benches pretty bare. *LOL* I'm like, jesus...this is satallite TV, not OTA, you don't have to edit out violence. It's like when they show Blazing Saddles on TV and instead of hearing all the cowboys farting around the fire while eating beans, you hear a bunch of cows randomly start mooing really loudly.

The Colorado-Tampa Final was an epic one. Two super elite teams in history.

They have the Edmonton series still up. It looks like they just pulled down the Finals.

I hope they keep the ESPN+ Stanley Cup Finals special up. That series they made with one show for each round.
