Around The NHL Part XXIX

[GeorgeKaplan]

Not you.

I do think he's got a better case than Point, but I think Hedman's been better than both of them

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Not a big fan of Tampa but they are deserving.

 

[RangersFan]

Congrats McD!!

 

[Trxjw]

Glad McDonagh got it. Admittedly I turned it off after the 2nd period. Was just too dull to power through.

 

[Maximus]

Well deserved Cup for the Bolts as they by far were the best team in the entire league when 2nd half of season began thru the playoff bubble.

My Conn Smythe goes to Point if I had a vote but I think Kucherov will get it while Hedman should be heavily considered as well. Vasilevsky with outside shot.

 

[Richard Banger]

No fans really takes the fun out of this

it’s just not the same

 

[RangersFan]

Kucherov, Point, Hedman all equally deserving. I'd give it to Hedman though.

 

[Crease]

Hedman’s 10 goals is best by a defenseman since ... Leetch’s 11 in 94.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Hopefully when we win the cup next year there will be fans in the stands.

 

[Kaapo Cabana]

Yea there’s absolutely an asterisk.

 

[Kords]

TB has been the best team in the league for a few seasons now. If it were any other team I might say circumstances played a part, aka asterisk cup, but TB were always the cup favorites. Gotta give it to em. Happy for Shatty and Mac, but it hurts a bit not gonna lie.

 

[NYRKing]

Congrats to the Covid cup champs. They have a great squad.

I wish we could have faced a Dallas during our cup run instead of the kings. What a difference...

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

This should've been McD in '14

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Hedman deserved it.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Grats McD. Only old guard guy I was sad to see go.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Man really should have piped in some boos for GB

 

[Boris Zubov]

Hedman is Mr Conn Smythe

 

[NYRKING30]

Hedman was a monster can’t go wrong there.

 

[wowitsanicecity]

If the NHL had any self awareness humor they would have piped in boos when Bettman came out.

 

[Tob]

Go get yourself that back up job in Tampa Henrik.

 

[Harbour Dog]

It's so hard to hear what Gary is saying without the boos.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Hedman was the right choice

 

[Crease]

I swear Bettman gets shorter every year.

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

Congrats to the Covid cup champs. They have a great squad.

I wish we could have faced a Dallas during our cup run instead of the kings. What a difference...

The Western Conference is a joke compared to what it was back then

 

[Richard Banger]

Hedman for sure deserved that
