Around the League '16-'17 Other Teams' Free Agent Frenzy

I wanna see Ovechkin loft that Cup. Highlight of an amazing career.

Justice. Vegas continues the long and storied Pacific Division tradition of losing in their first trip to the finals.

Special shout out to Perron and Reaves: eat d****, losers.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Happy for Trotz and Ovie. That's about it.

 

[Cook24]

f***ing perfect. f*** Vegas.

 

[kingsholygrail]

The Sharts now stand alone as ultimate chokers.

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Really interesting to see where the Knights go from here.

Do they keep some kind of core intact and go all in on the Tavares/Karlsson sweepstakes? Do they simply shed guys like Neal and continue building through the draft?

It’s clear they have depth stockpiled, but they were missing those gamebreakers this finals. They SORELY needed a #1 D to match up against the Ovechkin line.

At least the Capitals winning didn’t bankrupt our local economy by putting all the sportsbooks out of business lmao

 

[kingsfan28]

How much will Gallant whine about a play he didn't like in the presser?

 

[Bandit]

have to say though, Ovechin on the bench in the final minute, doesn’t lead his team in the handshake line... feels wrong

 

[kovacro]

I want to laugh at the team that overpays Perron when he hits FA.

Captain doesn't always lead the handshake line.

 

[Shellz]

GO HOME FLEURY

 

[The Night King]

I hated the Knights after our series with them. But props to them for making history.

Congrats Caps!

 

[Bandit]

Captain doesn't always lead the handshake line.

True but usually he’s near the front

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Lol Vegas fans not even boozing Bettman. Why should they anyways ?

 

[kovacro]

Winning the Cup at home is always a bit sweeter. Glad the Kings were able to do it both times, just feels right doing it in front of the fans.

Nevertheless, hats off to the Caps. Well deserved.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

I'll give him a pass. He was too excited to know what to do.

Some bookies are pissed that they gave out 10k to people who bet on Vegas to win the cup because they didn't want to payout even more.

 

[Bandit]

Ha. I do like though how he’s like “f*** the conn smythe, where’s the cup”

 

[kovacro]

Look at that pyro and listen to that music in the background...

Just give them the Cup already.

 

[SettlementRichie10]

No reason to. Kings fans didn’t in 2012. Just more gatekeeping bullshit.

The reaction to Vegas reaching the finals from other fans has been frankly embarrassing.

AO deserves that Conn Smythe, though.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

The joy in Ovie's face is just awesome.

 

[Bandit]

Is Ovechkin the first Russian captain to win it? I forget.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Those are some butt ugly hats though.

 

[kingsfan28]

Dustin Brown knows that same toothless smile raising the cup for the first time in franchise history.

 

[Bandit]

Those are some butt ugly hats though.

I doubt anyone in Washington cares.
