No Tkachuk for the Panthers.
With the Knights leading 3-1, we may see the cup handed out tonight.
10 0 ReplyI am a Cats fan, and I am not hopeful. Not giving up the fight just yet, but that’s probably the worst player after Bobs to lose.
2 0 ReplyHope you guys play a good hard game tonight

3 0 ReplyVGK 🥳
2 0 ReplyI just want everyone to try their best and have fun....
But yeah, the Panthers.
2 0 ReplyI'm a Sens fan so I'd like Brady to be the first Tkachuk to win the Cup and want to see Stone lift one. Go Knights.
2 0 ReplyI think Vegas winning it at home would be fun, but no deep feelings either way.

Florida Right Now on the Bobs Bus
8 0 ReplyI say this as a strong Florida fan… the Cats are collapsing in front of our eyes.

I think we need to expand this tradition of hockey teams adopting pop-punk hits to belt at random intervals

Yea... No way Panthers win this one with Tkachuk out.. Bummer.

Well if you're down 3 to 1 in the series, that is not the second period of game 5 that you want to have.
7 0 Replycats 4 cats
7 0 ReplyA Goalie Goal is all we need to end this disaster.
7 0 ReplyJust what I was going to say.
3 0 Reply
Stop, they're already dead!
7 0 ReplyThis game is very over
7 0 ReplyI was hoping PoMo and the boys could pull it out of the bag, but the loss of Tkachuk was just too much.
2 0 Reply
What an absolutely epic goal. The balls to just wait and wait like that
7 0 ReplyFor real. Crazy to have patience like that
5 0 ReplyAlmost like he's made of... STONE. 😎
4 0 Reply
It's crazy the time he had to make such a decision. The Panthers are utterly disorganized
2 0 ReplyThey looked alive to start the second but God damn has it been an ass whooping since about ,11minutes left in the second. This is borderline hard to watch.
2 1 Reply
It was 2 - 0 then I had to take a phone call. Came back to 6 - 1. Ouch.
7 0 ReplyWhy aren't they booing, I don't understand.
6 0 ReplyBettman can't even believe he's not getting booed
7 0 Reply
Geez, Im rooting hard for VGK, but this is brutal. Can't imagine their locker room rn
6 0 ReplyThat seemed like a too many men on the ice penalty at the end there.
6 0 ReplyNah I only counted 5 😉

While it kind of sucks the underdog story's ending, at least it means the Staals won't win
6 0 ReplyI hope they're proud of themselves.
3 0 ReplyI don’t care about Eric and Marc, but I will forever be grateful to Jordan for his contributions to the Cup in 2009.
3 0 Reply
Holy shit, Vegas is just dominating right now.
6 0 ReplyNow Florida gets to sit on the bench for the next 5 minutes while they clean up the hats
6 0 ReplyCongrats Vegas….definitely deserved it. They were dominant all series.
6 0 ReplyI am not a basketball fan, but watched the Nuggets win it last night. And it reminded me how hockey seems to be the only sport that does it right, giving the cup to the players instead of the owner. Hearing the owner talk right away is lame.
6 0 ReplyI bet you most people can’t even name an owner of a team that’s not their own.
4 0 ReplyI’m a Blackhawks fan… unfortunately everyone knows our owner.
4 0 Reply
Me suddenly realizing best part of r/hockey and r/NHL was team flairs. Need to put that in the list of features to add.
Otherwise rooting for Panthers want to see Vegas be so close but so far away from the cup again.
7 1 ReplyI want to see Jerboa get a Sports Mode like Sync has. Makes GDT so much more interactive.
6 0 ReplyI'm holding out for Sync for Lemmy. One can dream...
5 0 ReplyThe mobile web site works great, auto updates and everything!
4 0 ReplyIs that a kind of auto-update feature? If so, I know the mobile website does auto-updates

Does PP% go negative?
5 0 ReplyIt should! Shorthanded goals should be subtracted from the percentage IMO.

Florida is going all in on on offense and completely neglecting any sort of defensive scheme. Way too many turnovers.
4 0 ReplyAKA the Anaheim Method.
3 0 ReplyHopefully that changes with our new coach!
2 0 Reply
I don't even think there's a corpse left. It's just dust
4 0 ReplySo far it looks like the Panthers aren't interested in booking tee times just yet.
4 0 ReplyIn it to win it baby!
3 0 ReplyThey're playing really well considering. Good on them!
3 0 Reply
So, who do y'all have on Vegas winning the Conn Smythe tonight?
4 0 ReplyI'm not quite counting out Florida yet...
4 0 ReplyNo way Bob put up a strong enough performance in the finals to justify giving it to him with a L tonight
6 0 Reply
Maybe Eichel?
4 0 ReplyMarchessault, maybe Hill, but he didn't play the first series.
4 0 Reply
Knights better clear those screens, taking a lot of shots from the point
4 0 ReplyTHERE WE GO BABYYYY! Cats on the board!
4 0 ReplyNot even bothering to smile. They are just broken
4 0 ReplyOn a scale of one to Steve Bernier, how demoralizing was this period?
4 0 ReplyCats have looked really solid so far
4 0 ReplyWow - a shorty to go up from Stone.
4 0 ReplyI almost feel bad, still drinking this Tequila and celebrating though! Props to the cats fighting every inch to get here and winning their first final game ever.
4 0 ReplyVegas does such a good job taking up space in the defensive zone. Just smothering.
4 0 ReplyAlright everyone, scan the boards. Is she back?
4 0 ReplyAre you referring to the Capitals fan?
4 0 ReplyDon't know if she was a Caps fan, but the Caps were certainly fans of her
5 0 Reply
Fuck the Rags, but I still feel for Hank every time I see that goal. Dude is an absolute mensch and he gave everything a player could that run
4 0 ReplyYeah, sorry Cats but this is over. It’s been a fun ride.

Misfit Starting Line! I love it
4 0 ReplyI'm a Hurricanes fan, so I honestly have no idea who I want to win. On one hand, fuck the Panthers. On the other, I would kinda' prefer to have lost to the team that won the cup—somehow that would sting less. Either way, I'm hoping for another entertaining game.

I hate Vegas but they have 24 Canadian players on their team. So Canada basically won the cup, and that makes me happy.

Wait, cheers for Bettman?
2 0 ReplyI can’t decide whether I like or hate the hats this year.
2 0 ReplyRubbing salt in the wound at this point.
