What a strong message to send to Florida. 26 goals scored in the final series for Vegas against a goalie that looked unreal in the earlier series.

Bob couldn't sustain that level of play. Cooled off a couple of weeks too soon.

Not soon enough for me, I was pulling for the Canes after my Avs had an early ending. Avs couldnโ€™t have kept it up with the shape we were in at the end of the regular season so maybe going early was a blessing in disguise.

Regardless of the lackluster finals, it's nice to have a new team win the Cup.

Has there been a lot of repeats in the past 20 years?

[โ€“] notun 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I meant a team that has never won before.

But if you wanna look back the past 20ish years you got Chicago, Tampa and Pittsburgh with 3 cups each and Kings with 2, so that's already 11 years between four teams.

I think both teams in the Final haven't one before. Am I blocking out a Florida Cup?

I'm not sure what I'd call too many repeated cup wins, but I don't feel like that's over the line for me.

Straight up collapse on behalf of the Cats last night. It was really depressing.

Yeah. i didn't watch the 3rd period. Just the handshakes and the players raising the Cup.

[โ€“] RomeCallen 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
