One of the most horrifically boring cup clinching games I have ever watched. Dallas looks like they’ve been moping since the 10 minute mark.

Really just hope the last 5 minutes are exciting. Really disappointing finale. Hedman deserves the MVP more than either forward.

Dallas finally stepped on the gas with 10 minutes to go but it’s like watching Tortorella’s Rangers try to come from behind.

I have not a doubt in my mind had the Islanders have beaten the Bolts, it would be the Isles up 3-2 in the series and less than 8 minutes away from winning their 1st Cup in 35 years while we in here would be cursing out loud as no way in hell this Stars team would have beaten the Islanders.

Instead the hockey gods threw us all a bone and we've been able to watch a stress free Stanley Cup final. TY TY TY oh hockey gods as you've been good to us lately allowing us to win draft lottery's the past few years and not allowing our hated enemy to win a Cup...cheers!

They would not have beaten Dallas either. This would have been their 5th series and coming off of 2 straight 7 game series and playing a Dallas team resting for a week plus they aren't that good. Nope, don't see it.

Totally disagree as no question in my mind Isles would have figured out a way to beat the Stars but thankfully we didn't need to find out thank the lord!

The NHL didn't want to compete head to head with the NFL & came up with this brutal condensed schedule. In turn it created some really bad hockey & certainly not the way to attract new fans.

That centering pass by Radulov... so f***ing horrible. You’re an NHL player down 2-0 in the SCF, you know better than to float a dog shit soft pass like that. He and Klingberg have done that countless times in this series. Somewhat baffling.
 
There’s really no point in pulling the goalie. Dallas can’t keep the puck out of their own end for a full 30 seconds let alone 2-3 minutes.

Agreed. They could have had a few more off days in there for the finals. Both teams are on fumes now.

But POINTZ. Laughable that people are arguing for Kucherov.
 
Congrats to TBL on being able to take that final step.
Even more impressive when they had $8.5m of real talent sitting out most of the finals and still looked like the most talented team in every round
