Fair play to LV, hope they win it all.

[JD]

It's a great story. I really hope they win.

Caps v Lightning is going to a game 7

[UK Redsox]

Caps now 3-1 up against the Knights on the Stanley Cup Final.

I don't think that even the notoriously flaky Caps can Caps this up from here

Time to dig out my Ovechkin jersey

Caps win their first Stanley Cup

Some of my friends in the DC area will have sore heads this morning

[Comrade Blitz]

Have fond memories of the Mike Gartner days of the Caps  and good rivalries with the Flyers.

This series could've used a little less "Ovechkin deserves to win the Cup before he retires"

14 years in the league. I didn't realise that it had been so long.

A great player. I've even forgiven him for running off with Maria Redsox

[Jon Crofts]

The Caps must have come on a bit since I last saw them when they officially ‘sucked ass’

RIP NHL Legend Stan Mikita

As usual the Leafs are off to a hot start. Just a matter of waiting for the inevitable slow decline over the season.

[Meanwood Villa]

Tampa Bay Lightning get a record equalling number of wins in the regular season then get swept in the first round of the playoffs. Ouch.

Went from being the worst team in the NHL in January to winning it all.  Fair play.
