Post-Game Talk: 06/24/24 8PM ET SCF Game 7: STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!!!

[Mogo]

I am already here! Hopefully Zito comes too. OJ told during the game that Zito was basically living in Helsinki in the late 90s when OJ played for HIFK. That 1997-98 winning team had three players who became Stanley Cup champions, namely Brian Rafalski, Tim Thomas and Kimmo Timonen. All in all, it's the greatest team ever played in the Finnish league. Before that there were a couple of HIFK players who won Stanley Cups. Carl Brewer who built the HIFK identity, had won three and the legendary Esa Tikkanen won 5 SCs (4 in Edmonton and 1 in New York). It's great that Anton joins that group of champions. He'll bring the cup to Stadi!

If they had any eye for this they would arrange a big stanley cup party in Helsinki and Tampere.
But you know how bad finns are arranging events

4 years ago his dad Jan became the oldest player in the Finnish league when he played a minute at the end of a game and had an opportunity to play together with his son Anton.

Belated congrats all!

Enjoy the magic of this time.

PoMo kissing the cup is looped as my zoom background now. Can't wait to join meetings tomorrow

I do think Bob got robbed of the Conn Smythe. He was great in the playoff run and unsolvable in four games of the Finals.

And four is exactly how many times you need to be the first star on the ice to win the series.

the problem is that they vote before the third period.

Amazing.

This just made me cry all over again. WTF, that's straight out of a movie script.

Anton told in an interview that because they missed Midsummer, Finns are going to take care of celebration and make it a Juhannusparty.

I was literally crying and shaking when the game ended. Safe to say I got very invested. I was so happy. Only hockey wins above this are Finland golds in different age group WHC's.

Congrats to all the Panthers fans!

Then I just took shower, ironed my Miami Vice t-shirt, put it on and started to watch interviews. I am not capable of working today but I am also not sleepy. I just want to enjoy the moment. I am so happy for the players, coaches and especially for all Panthers fans who have suffered so many years. Those g

Congrats to our expansion cousins on their Cup win!

[Jarqui]

Congrats Panthers fans and to the Panthers team.
The best team won.
Who said defensive hockey wasn't exciting?
A long time coming but I think it was well deserved.
Very happy for Paul Maurice.
All the best!

It’s like a weight has been lifted lol

Hope you're doing well dude. I know I wore my heart on my sleeve this past week and was full of bad emotions. Saw you taking it a bit rough as well. We're champs now though

From this very delighted Flames fan, congratulations Panthers! The team played the one of the best games I've ever watched in game 7 and rightfully earned the win. Incredible stuff. Thanks for doing it for Chucky, Benny, and Lombo. Enjoy your summer!

I'm definitely not ever watching footage of game 4 ever again.

Funny, I was just thinking I could go back and make peace with it. It'll be cathartic

Please could you tell me where to look for the local coverage? All my videos are ESPN (sorry for what is probably a daft question!)

Oh, I've just been catching up on all the clips posted on here after 1am.

Productivity at work will be very low. Looking for an excuse to go to Pantherland.

McDavid was a beast this playoffs and the Oilers are like a one-man team, but damn, the guy didn't generate anything in Game 7. He broke records and whatnot, but many Barkov was right there the whole time and should've gotten the Smythe IMO

 

[CupInSIX]

Congrats! I'm so happy for Maurice.
