Around the League: Capitals and Ovie are Stanley Cup Champions

[garce]

Wow,just wow, magic

 

[garce]

Playoffs man, a week ago the Jets were a dynasty. Come back from this maybe they are.

 

[Warden of the North]

Vegas

Wow

 

[Peasy]

Vegas going to do in one year what the Leafs haven't been able to do in 51.

 

[IPS]

Holy f*** that is a tough loss wow

 

[Leaf4Life]

Jets fans are too cocky and now they'll need a miracle. Love it.

Go Vegas!

 

[GardinerTheForward]

f*** vegas. bill foley just buys a stanley cup. MLSE should buy an expansion team and make some keen trades to the leafs

 

[Suntouchable13]

Man, f*** Vegas.

My gawd they’re fun to watch.

 

[firstemperor]

Vegas has a bunch of guys that just compete for every inch out there. Our team is too young or unable to match that......even 1 guy missing an assignment would make the whole team get exposed. Great win for them tonight.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Vegas is insane. I hope they win. They give it all out there and don't give up when they get scored on. Fleury is also an animal.

FEELS SO GOOOOOOOOOOD.

love seeing jets lose.

Vegas winning against jets in playoffs feeling = leafs winning a regular season game

 

[MSZ]

It's hard to cheer for that sorry a$$ Jets team, go Knights go.

Other than the fact they are better than the Leafs in every facet of the game. Everything. Nothing,the Leafs have done in my lifetime compares to their success.

So you were born after 2002? That would explain a lot.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Vegas defies logic. A miracle on ice season with every guy wanting to prove something after being cast off by their old teams.

No real #1 d-man, no big name forwards - at least until this season - wanting to make a name for them self

I just don’t get it

I think they're changing how we should think about building cup contenders.

so what? I can't dislike a team? Played a shitty ass goalie rinne last series, or it'd be over in 6.

 

[Superstar]

Jets showing glimpses of the team they were last year: turnovers, bad defensive breakdowns and odd-man rushes, and bad goaltending. And where would the Jets be if Doug Armstrong didn't sacrifice his own team and offer up Stastny at the trade deadline?

Pfft...you should really check out the Jets playoff success before this year...so awesome!

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Go Vegas! Win the cup, and then land Tavares, Carlson, AND Karlsson

(RIP commentators with the latter 2 + Wild Bill on the same team. Can they trade for Melker Karlsson?!?!)

 

[Menzinger]

Vegas needs to build Dave Tallon a statue outside their arena

 

[Daisy Jane]

(sigh).
Vegas is so winning a cup.
so not fair.

I think its difficult to see Vegas losing 3 games in a row. If that doesn't happen, they will make the SCF while the Leafs have not done that since 1967.

Also Leafs only won 2 games in 2002 ECF, so technically, Vegas is already more successful than that. Have to go back to '93 for when the Leafs went to game 7 in the conference finals.

In one year they have become a more attractive team than the Leafs. When we went to the game I couldn’t help but notice The Leafs take a back seat to them in almost every facet - City, Arena, fans, show,atmosphere, ownership, coach....it’s almost embarrassing.
