Re: Go Redwings, win the Cup back!
Look, the more-skilled hockey team one. Fact.
The Flyers made it to the Finals on grit, determination, and heart. Sometimes that shit is more important than talent.
Other times, you get whirliebirded into the runner-up position.
But I don't think anybody's ever going to forget these playoffs 'round here.

Re: Go Redwings, win the Cup back!
An amazing run to the Finals. And I agree with C-C, as usual. The better team won. I was there last night, and even though the wrong team won, it was incredible to see the Stanley Cup being raised.
The small silver lining is that I now know somebody whose name will be on the Cup. Mike Haviland, the Blackhawks Assistant Coach, was the head coach of the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies when they won the ECHL championship (the Kelly Cup). I was a ticket salesmen, and knew the coach from meeting and being in the office. So I have that going for me, which is nice.

Philly did great, but I was happy to see a former London Knight, Pat Kane, who I spent a couple of years cheering for win the cup. Sadly Brian Campbell gives Strathroy yet another cup winner. Now Toronto is the only O6 team not to win a cup post expansion
