A win is a win and Chicago put on an impressive display in both regular season and the playoffs that year.

Ok I'll take the win.

I find it very amusing that Canada has had this long of a Cup drought.

Doctor X · Post by **Doctor X** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 6:11 pm

I have thought of that, but remember Canada can no longer demand priority on drafting Canadian players. So a lot of Canadian players play for Freedom!

Grammatron · Post by **Grammatron** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 6:21 pm

That still doesn't explain the 25 year drought. If Los Angeles can do it then any of the 7 Canadian teams should be able as well. Especially as loaded as some of those teams have been through those years. The GMing and Coaching have to be the culprits.

Doctor X · Post by **Doctor X** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 6:27 pm

Oh I am sure.

Though if you concentrate "the best players" on a team, like Pittsburgh, you can get a "dynasty." Timing is also important. Chicago tanked, got "new life" and was able to hold on to enough of them to make a couple of "Cup runs" and win.

You do not call slashing Marchand's wrist on a break-away but you call a high sticking penalty when the Devil Ray Whatever hits himself with his own stick?

--J.D.

Grammatron · Post by **Grammatron** » Tue May 01, 2018 5:54 pm

That was an odd miss on a penalty, but Marchand is such a dirty player and that history works against him

Doctor X · Post by **Doctor X** » Wed May 02, 2018 3:01 am

There is that, but the "high-stick-yourself-oh-you-have-blood-DOUBLEZPENILTIEZ" is NFL Gene Steratore-Level FAIL.

Not quite Mike Carey-Level, but then, to get that you have to have Jess Mendoza and Tim McCarver involved.

Look, if you just skate into a stick that was clearly intended for the puck. . . .

How about that Vegas team.

Doctor X · Post by **Doctor X** » Wed May 09, 2018 4:25 am

Actually, I was going to post it, but I happened to walk by the Canadian Scum Winnipeg game when they went up 3-0 in . . . in . . . Nashville. There were like two Jets fans standing cheering while the rest were silent.

I suppose I should feel Gram Ovechkin finally deserves "one," but I do not know if the Capitols will beat the Devil Rays.

Grammatron · Post by **Grammatron** » Wed May 09, 2018 8:02 am

I don't think anyone deserves to "one" but I do hope that Capitals win the cup. Unless you don't like our Nation's (under GOD!) capital?

But I like Vegas. More gambling than our nations capitol. Maybe not. Hmm. Go Hawks!!

Go Knights. Is Cinderella done? Amazing stuff either way. Who can I jinx?

I don't think either is a "Cinderella" story but neither team has won a cup yet.

Doctor X · Post by **Doctor X** » Thu May 31, 2018 9:35 pm

Good so far, though I missed most of Game 2.

I guess "Cinderella" for Las Vegas, but they took advantage of building the team based on the rights of a starting franchise. Though give credit where it is due, they seemed to have done it the right way.

Meanwhile, Ovechkin has been an excellent player playing on a choking team. I am sure, if I paid more attention, I could find times where he failed. Be that as it may, the channel I post the "Conglaturations!" videos already has a "Caps Legacy of Failure" video I believe.

Some might call the Caps a "Cinderella" since Las Vegas played like they were going to the Cup FinalS all year, and this is the first time the Caps have made it past the Wild Card Play-in game. . . .
