Capitals deserved it. Their stars played well but their lower lines really stepped up too. Good to see Ovechkin get the cup. We don't get to see that raw excitement in sports too much anymore. I wouldn't be shocked if he only plays 3 more years in the NHL and goes back to Russia to prepare to win an Olympic gold.
I do think Kuznetsov was honorable mention for the Conn Smythe. Him stepping up like he did really elevated the Capitals.
