Amazing.

And of course, a shot of crucial former Shark contributors to the Cup Lorentz and Gadzjovich hugging each other.

I think that's the first time I've seen them present the con smythe to the losing team. He deserved it, but I always wondered what that would be like.

 

[NWSharkie]

Lol the Conn Smythe for McDavid just has to feel like salt in the wound

 

[ChompChomp]

Did McDavid come out? They didn't even show anything.

 

[drunksage]

Let's not forget the best part of all this: the ugly golden helmets are no longer the reigning Stanley Cup champs.

It's happened like a half-dozen times, usually to a goalie. IIRC the last one was J-S Giguere when the Devils beat Anaheim in the 2000s.

I like to see a new franchise win the cup and I do like Barkov.

 

[The Nemesis]

"I know my brother's gonna do it real soon."

Not in Ottawa he isn't.

 

[Bizz]

gotta give ESPN credit, at least they're showing everyone lift the Cup. NBC would have cut it off after like 4 players.

 

[The Nemesis]

Lorentz with the cup now. EDIT: and then he gives it to Gadjovich.

 

[ChompChomp]

He gave it to Mahura who gave it to Gadjovich.

 

[Bizz]

Gadjovich was on Florida? lol

 

[NWSharkie]

I always knew I'd see Jonah Gadjovich raise the Cup one day

[karltonian]

I really like Paul Maurice.

it really seemed like it was never going to happen for him

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

There are hockey gods

 

[Bizz]

as much as I'd like to see McDavid win a cup, I'm glad they lost. Evander Kane doesn't deserve nice things.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Ron Hextall I think is the OG in that 87 run

 

[karltonian]

Interesting that our longtime yotes opponent OEL gets his name on the Cup this way

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Well now you can retire having lost your last four Stanley Cup series Corey Perry you f***ing loser

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Nice to see Bob get a cup he was under a lot pressure with that contract he signed

 

[SJSharksfan39]

That was a long time ago and I didn't remember. Also, I'm older so I can better grasp what is happening.

[The Nemesis]

Ron Hextall I think is the OG in that 87 run

I went and looked up the history:

Roger Crozier (G) - 1966 Detroit Red Wings (lost to Montreal)

Glenn Hall (G) - 1968 St. Louis Blues (lost to Montreal)

Reggie Leach (F) - 1976 Philadelphia Flyers (lost to Montreal)

Ron Hextall (G) - 1987 Philadelphia Flyers (lost to Montreal Edmonton)

Jean-Sebastien Giguere (G) - 2003 Anaheim Mighty Ducks (lost to New Jersey)

and now McDavid, who's the first in 21 years and only the second non-goalie.

 

[Jargon]

I forgot Perry was on the Oilers somehow and when I saw his dumb sad face I was even happier.

But for real, let’s get the biggest offseason in Sharks history going.

 

[The Nemesis]

My quiet hope against hope is that Draisaitl is so disillusioned with this loss that he bails when his contract is up and gets the pitch of all pitches made by countryman Hasso Plattner. Celebrini-Smith-Draisaitl? That's some champion caliber center depth.
