Where's that hilarious PDO picture?

Ferland was great tonight, really added an element we needed against LA tonight.

Brown and Pouty minus 2. Proper.

I think this season also proved another point. Given a chance to play real minutes. Almost any player can improve. They don't necessarily plateau at 'such and such' an age.

Jooris, Engelland, Russell, Granlund and a few I am probably missing, these guys wouldn't even get table scraps on some teams. Hartley played them, and the continued to improve.

It cannot be said enough. Engelland, in my eyes has 100% earned his contract this year. Especially in light of all the WTFBBQ11!!1!1 reactions when he was signed. The guy has been a silent warrior, and has just done his meat and potatoes job, as good as you could ask of any d-man in the league. His first pass out of the zone has also been very good as of late.

These guys proved so many doubters wrong, and there is going to be a ton of crow eating. What the Corsians will never understand, is you cannot put a stat on desire, will to win, and chemistry. It is not quantifiable, it's just kinda... magic. And this team had that magic.

Gaudreau's most ridiculous play of the game was this pass IMO:

Count me in with those that almost teared up when it was decided.

This team is just so easy to like.

They play the right way, and do it for each other. Just have that chemistry this team had missed since 2006.

Personally I think I already enjoy this season as much as 03/04 and hold this group of guys in the same regard.

Watch the highlights about 10 times in a row and it makes you feel like you can take on the world. And win. What an atmosphere.

[Caged Great]

It has been nearly two hours and I still can't believe they did that.

Complete total domination.

[Mony]

I've been waiting to post this. Hey guys, one second into game 1 against Van, our group will have more playoff experience than Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.

This guy. He's just awesome. The next decade is going to be a lot of fun to watch.

[justing]

Is it just me or was Colborne crying during the celebration? So much heart... I love this team!!!

[Julio]

I am happy.

I'm going to really enjoy Johnny Hockey owning Doughty for the next 10 years -- I guess.

I thought that's what I saw as well.

[MelBridgeman]

it was 25 years ago that the Kings eliminated the Flames from the play-offs after winning the cup
paybacks a bitch

I'm not sure if this was posted yet but this brought a smile to my face.

"We played hard," said Kings head coach Darryl Sutter, who led the Flames to the Stanley Cup finals in 2004. "I got no complaints with anything to do with our team. I give the Calgary Flames lots of credit. Now I get to pull for them."

How is he ever gonna do that against real NHL defenceman?

[dieHARDflameZ]

Just to add on the Gaudreau discussion, he is such a big game player! He doesn't play scared and instead just rises to the occasion as usual. We are so spoiled to have a guy like him to watch for years to come... And Monahan, Bennett the list goes on...
