SCF: Vegas Golden Knights vs. Carolina Hurricanes

[Frank E]

Nice to see Staal win Conn Smythe.

OK, on with the offseason!

I'm very, very happy to see Eric Tulsky win the Cup. Best GM in the league.

But also for anyone who's kept up with the analytics trend in hockey from the start it's truely even more incredible to see Tyler Dellow be a Stanely Cup champion.

Alongside Taylor Hall!

As much flack as Toronto gets, Winnipeg's year wasn't much better. President trophy team that flamed out in the playoffs, they let a core member walk away in free agency, they missed the playoffs altogether and are now at a crossroads, and the player they let walk just won a cup with his new team in his first year there.

Mr. Game 5/6/7 does it again.

*lights a cigarette and walks away, never to open this thread again*

Such a shame, everyone in Toronto was rooting for Mitch.

Oh the irony: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/mitch-marner-explains-why-vetoed-003801999.html

Here's what we learned this playoffs. Mitch Marner can put up points in the playoffs in a sheltered, 3rd line role and also, he still disappears when the games matter most.


(At the end of the day, Marner spurned the Leafs and chose to go elsewhere. I think it's ok to dunk on him right now)
