Don’t forget an extra $20 million in cap space.

If the Lightning win, it's kind of like nobody does because they cheated, right?

Yes I agree the Flames do not have any of those things

Also heart and will to win. Just as important as these other pieces.
They are a bunch of cheaters but they have built a culture of winning over the past number of years. They remind me of the Stamps in CFL - where it's almost just expected for the team to win.
And just like the Stamps.. little hardware to show for it so far. But they still win a lot more games than they lose.

Just stop and think for a minute. Don’t do anything you can’t live with.

Does he engrave it with his teeth?
F the Bolts.
Go Habs!

For all the talk of not drafting goalies in the first round, the two finalists are first rounders. Wonder when was the last time that happened.

Odds are this Flames team would have allowed a tying goal, then hit a few posts in overtime before losing.
The Flames have so much work to do. It starts with getting guys who want to win and hate to lose.

That being said, watching a team like Tampa play tells you a lot about what the Flames are missing.

This level of bitterness can’t be healthy.

Tampa is garbage. The whole Kucherov situation makes the league look like a joke.

I actually looked this up recently. The only other time it has happened was the 2003 Final when 1995's 13th overall pick, J.S. Giguere faced 1990's 20th overall, Martin Brodeur.
2021 was also the first time that the starting goalies for all 4 teams in game one of the semi-final were first round picks.

You quoting my posts is pretty funny. Nice to see this is how you spend a Friday evening. Go outside, enjoy the weather - I post often so you can obsess over me when it's crappy outside. Deal?

My heart is with Price and the Habs but my gut says Tampa will win and nobody outside of Tampa will GAF when they do.

I hate all the other Canadian teams.
Tampa cheats. But I think the town deserves credit as a successful nontraditional hockey market.
Don't like either of them, but I actively hate the Habs.

Couldn't have happened to a more greedy, self centred, and entitled fan base.

It's like cheering for Stalin, but only because he's fighting against Hitler.

What a weird finals matchup... Lightning in 5. Tampa won't crumble after a gaffe

Again think the Habs will lose, but screw every single sunbelt market where no one plays or cares about hockey and never will except a tiny minority. Nothing lamer and more contrived. Go Hartford. Wait no go montreal.
Burrows sucks but at least he's not Florida man.

It's definitely shattering the previous ceiling for goalie cap hits; IIRC Holtby's 6.1M was the highest ever.
MAF was a slightly higher % of cap (8.82%); Vasilevskiy is 11.66%.
