My GF is a hockey fanatic and I get dragged to many hockey events. she forced. E to the NHL all-star game last year and we met Kopitar. Big guy.
we also met steve stamkos. Patrick elias, Carlson , and Charria, who is massive in person.
Anyone else think the Kings sandbagged game 5 so they could parade the Stanley Cup around home ice tonight? Quite a difference in their play in game 5 and tonight.
Thanks also to Airborne and Perdogg for running this thread and to all who participated here. It's been a real entertaining season with many surprises and some new records set or tied. Here's hoping to see y'all next season when the Wings win their twelfth SC Championship.
I was glad that they had a 3 - 0 lead after the first period. Took the pressure off.
Know nothing about hockey, except that John McMullen used to own my team the Astros. A pox upon that bastard.
Thanks to everyone who shared in another great hockey season! Have a safe and prosperous off season!
Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings for winning the Stanley Cup!
Congratulations to American born Jonathan Quick for winning the Conn Smythe Trophy!
Congrats to the LA Kings. Great ending to the season.
I can't argue with the five-minute major last night. I hate to see a call like that so early in a deciding game, but when you have a guy bloody and injured like that there's really nothing else the official can do but assess a major and a game misconduct.
To tell you the truth, I don't think it would have made much of a difference anyway. These Devils started to show signs that they were out of gas as far back as Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals (the Rangers outplayed them for most of Games 5 and 6 even though the Devils won both games), and there's no question that this Kings team was a machine that nobody was going to stop.
The scariest hockey player I ever saw up close was Scott Stevens. He wasn’t as tall or heavy as some of those other guys, but he had this strange look to him. Instead of being well-built and toned like a typical athlete, he was just BIG in every way. He looked like a normally-proportioned human being who was 20% larger than average by every measure ... giant head, huge feet (someone who would know this told me that he wore one of the largest pairs of skates in the NHL), and the biggest hands I’ve ever seem up close. Oh, and he has those bright blue eyes that look through you like lasers. LOL.
