[NHL] 2017-18 NHL - 100 Years (aka The Rise of the Golden Knights)

[jwhouk]

Okay, my predictions:

Washington in six
Vegas in six.

And... I've had this sneaking suspicion that Vegas will get the finals to game seven, and then suddenly it's like no one shows up. Washington wins their first ever Cup, and some accusations get thrown around about the Knights' play in the finals...

Go Jets Go!

You can't change your pick. Certainly not while the team you picked to win tbe Cup is still playing!

Picks? What picks? I made no such picks.

 

[Terrik]

I got tickets to the Bolts-Caps game tonight. Woo!

 

[jwhouk]

The only reason I want to see Washington in the finals is Barry.

 

[DarkAudit]

The only reason I want to see Washington in the finals is Barry.

Every time I hear his name I mistake him for a relative of Bryan Trottier..

Not out of appreciation for Filip?

 

[jwhouk]

Oh, no, we realize that's an open wound for them.

Of course, the ultimate would be if GMGM ends up winning the Cup... that'd not only be an FU to the Caps, but to Poile as well.

 

[blotsfan]

An American team has won the cup.

I wish I could say I called it, but...

 

[Sparhawk]

Yesterday was a bad day for Canada hockey, lost their last chance to get Lord Stanley's Cup back, and lost to USA in the bronze game of the internationals.

 

[Gruebeard]

Y'all just keep appropriating my culture, eh?

 

[jwhouk]

Hey, the first international hockey game was played in Massachusetts, so who's appropriating what?

 

[Gruebeard]

Hey, the first international hockey game was played in Massachusetts, so who's appropriating what?

Who: Y'all
What: Our Cup.

When: Every. Fucking. Year.

 

[Terrik]

Im looking forward to tonight's game

 

[HCGLNS]

This year marks the 25th anniversary of Gary Bettman as head of the NHL.

 

[jwhouk]

You're gonna be insufferable if the Bolts win, aren't you, @Terrik?

 

[Terrik]

Apparently not

 

[jwhouk]

Another game seven.

 

[BErt]

Relevant every year, and also applies to game sevens:

 

[jwhouk]

Lou to the Isles.

 

[HCGLNS]

Lou to the Isles.

That was Sundays lead story.

Hunter is out also.

[blotsfan]

Get yourself a Cup, Ovi.

You know the Pens fans have a convoy of Vegas bandwagoners thanks to MAF, right?

 

[HCGLNS]

I have said it would be funny if MAF was Ovi nemisis all along.

 

[jwhouk]

Yes, but there's this other guy on there whose bobblehead I have. Y'all were great about giving him to us a few years ago.

This is RDJN's second straight Stanley Cup Finals appearance, and third in the last five years.

[DarkAudit]

The Tree with his playoffs review and Finals preview...

 

[jwhouk]

He's intentionally jinxing the Caps.

Holtby with the Save of the Year?
