Happy for Ovi, about damn time. Respect the hell out of him, as battle-tested as any star I've seen.

Just goes to prove that you can win with a winger as the best player.

Defenceman arent more valuable then wingers.

Ford wins a majority and Caps win the cup on the same night... anyone have a noose

Seriously though, congrats to the Caps. At least that one was deserved.

Didn’t you guys just vote out your noose?

The recent trend of cup winners:

Strong forwards and meh defensemen.

I don't think we need to drive Nylander and Marner to the airport for Drew Doughty anymore do we @Mess ?

You certainly need forwards that can wear down the opposition D along the way, oh, and be able to defend a lead.

Ed O was talking about how much better Washington played team D in these playoffs.

Sooooo the main arguments on this board in the past decade have been

1.). Rebuild is the only way to success. Vegas makes the final as an expansion team

2.) hyman shouldn’t be on matthews wing.
Wilson—- backstrom—- ovy

3.) you can win with a winger as your best player. #ovechkin

Bad year to be some people here
