Florida Panthers defeat the Edmonton Oilers 4-3, and are your 2024 Stanley Cup Champions!

[WaitingForThatCab]

Any update on Florida injuries? For the physical series that Edmonton had to play throughout they came out pretty unscathed

Only two I know of are Bennett's knee injury (Nurse knee on knee) and Ekblad playing through a high/low ankle sprain after McDavid decided to start doing wrestling moves behind the net.

How about Draisaitl? Did they say yet if he was actually injured or not? I'm waiting to hear that one.

Broken finger and potentially a rib injury? Nothing official about the rib injury out yet though

Highest rated game in 20 years.

On a Monday, nonetheless

The celebration looks awesome. Diving with the Cup into the Atlantic is certainly a new one.

Broken elbow from classless Barkov hitting it with his face

I need to find friends like Barkov. Anyone here capable of winning the cup and looking for a new friend?

I'm more concerned on why Sasha Barkov is not sleep at 4am in the morning.

He won the Stanley Cup last night

He's a party animal. Waking up all of his neighbors, current and former.

Whenever has it not?

You mean he was a huge sucker going out there with a teary eyed look accepting a consolation prize.

Uh, put away the copium.

I personally thought it was a little tacky that McDavid didn't show up for it, but I can see a defense of it. He's gutted and commiserating with his team.

But calling Giguere a sucker for having the guts to go out there on the road is just...truly pathetic.

Like are you a NEET who thinks that everyone with a family and a job are 'suckers' because sometimes they have to do the hard thing instead of the hedonistic thing?

The Panthers only won because the Oilers lost gg Panthers congrats on the Stanley cup win.

Kinda interesting that the most offensive d-man from the Panthers just had a 39 point season. Pretty odd for a Cup winner in the modern NHL.

Pens in their 2017 cup win was 39 year old Streit with 27 points, of which 6 were as a penguin.

Letang didn't play a single playoff game so I excluded him, but even he only had 34 points.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Damn impressive

Keith Tkachuk full embracing the dad body.

Hopefully FLA can carry this momentum into next season and the fan support continues. Time will tell if it's sustainable

Hey guys check this out. I won the cup pretty cool right lol.

 

[Firsov99]

Wiki says he was born in Finland. He holds dual citizenship… so you’re kinda correct I guess…

Both of his parents are Russian. His Dad was a professional Soviet/Russian hockey player and was a pretty good forward himself. But Barky is definitely the product of the Finnish hockey system. So, Russian DNA, but Finnish hockey prowess.

 

[HugginThePost]

Easy to root for Barkov, not so easy for Cousins and Tkachuk. EDM did fantastically, and should be able to build on this year. Hopefully Broberg can use this experience and come back as a useful young Dman. Holloway... he was ok, but also has a lot of room to improve. It's funny how unsung players like Janmark find ways to show up during the playoffs.

The irony hating on Chuck and Cousins when your team employs Kane, Drai, Nurse, and Perry.

Homerism at its finest. I'm sure the Oiler's players "play the right way".

Chucky said he doesn't plan on sleeping for a couple more days...
