GDT: 2023-24 Other Games Around The League

[tiburon12]

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

dude they missed Barkov's initial lift lolol

 

[Star Platinum]

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

No, he did not

 

[mooncalf]

Happy for Florida, was definitely rooting for them. I've hated the oilers ever since draisaitl speared tierney in the nuts that one year in the playoffs

 

[Powinkle]

Am I a bad person for being happy Kane and Draisaitl (the human elbow) didn't win it?

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.

Youngester.

Did not see tearful Giguere come out to accept trophy in 2003.

 

[Hangemhigh]

Meanwhile, in the AHL

Hershey bears should be some kind of chocolate candy.

BARKOV THE FIRST FINNISH CAPTAIN TO WIN IT!!
Also 2-way 1C winning it, Celebrini take notes for the future because Sharks really need a special moment in the future. LET's GO!

 

[Barrie22]

Corey perry in the past 5 years has lost in the cup finals 4 times.

 

[Hangemhigh]

I wonder if the Sharks could get a 1st from the Oilers for taking a cap problem.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Wow great to see Kyle Okoposo get a cup especially given all the adversity he’s faced

 

[DG93]

Eichel last year fits that description too

 

[SjMilhouse]

Glad Edmonton lost but man....what I'd give to get to experience what Panther fans got to experience tonight

 

[dmcccdmn]

Defense wins. Grier has an opportunity to build the team with a clean slate, starting with 2-way 1C in Celebrini.

What I learned from the years we lost to Pittsburgh and Vegas was that speed kills. We were so slow that we couldn't generate any offense.

I hope that this new Sharks team will be built around speed and defense with strong goalie.

 

[weastern bias]

That turned out to be a fun finals, I was pretty bored through the first 2 games but 3-7 were really interesting, even if only a couple of them were actually competitive

It's not the "all-timer" some nerds are trying to claim, 2013 is still the gold standard in the cap era to me, and 2022 was awesome, but it was probably in the top half since the lockout

 

[Lebanezer]

I gotta say, this displeases me.

 

[StanleyCup2035]

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.

Draisaitl would be 4C if we get Hagens

Let’s win this on in June 2035! I’ll take earlier, of course

 

[OrrNumber4]

Somewhere, Ron Wilson is grinning...

That guy who scored 0 goals in the finals? I'll pass, he doesn't have the clutch gene of a player like Melker Karlsson

And congrats to McDavid on being named the best loser in the world, it's a very rare and prestigious accomplishment

Or Justin Braun.

 

[zombie kopitar]

so happy the Oilers lost the way they did, nothing against McDavid, just the rest of that franchise's existence the last 20 years

Should've accepted the award. We were robbed of sad Oiler footage. Sad Henrik/Jumbo are painfully iconic.

 

[tahoesharksfan]

Glad to see the Cats win, Edmonton has squandered so much opportunity!

I have had a deep disdain for the Oilers ever since the Raffi Torres elbow on Michalek. My 4th least favorite Sharks rival in my opinion (Ducks, Knights, Kings)

Pretty one-sided rivalry though. We need to get our getback
