Happy Homer Simpson GIF


LETS GO!!
 
I can wholeheartedly say, without exaggerating....far from it... I enjoyed watching this hockey game more than any game that didn't involve the LA Kings for the 57 years I've been watching Ice Hockey.
I hear ya there. For me I can think of a number of others I enjoyed more (no particular order):

1987 Easter Epic Game 7 (1st round) 4 OT NYI vs Wash
1996 World Cup, USA vs Canada game 3
1987 SCF Game 7 Philly vs EDM
1980 Olympics USA vs USSR

I'm sure I'll think of a few others....glad you enjoyed the game though!

Did McDavid not come out for the conn smythe trophy? The sound also got muted, were the fans mocking him with derisive chants?
Thought i may have missed McD's Giguere red-eye moment... (Some amount of Bobby chants, but nothing like " Marty's better" that Giguere endured.
 
The Conn Smythe to a non-goalie, eh? I think the last time that happened was Reggie Leach.

As much as we hate M. Tkachuk, I'd rather see him with the Cup rather than those 4 other guys from the Soilers.

A bittersweet outcome but an outcome I wanted the most in this year's Finals. Now I can breathe easy and relax for the upcoming offseason.

Thanks man!

I had a great time ...but you got me on the 1980 Olympics. That WAS bigger than this one.

I was 21 years old and homeless, sleeping on a friend's couch. That win over Russia revitalized me and 4 months later I was installing some newfangled devices called ATMs, which ended my 3 years of homelessness...which led to meeting my future wife and raising a family.

And it was all sparked by USA's win.

Good call. And thanks again!

What a truly pathetic behavior and he should be ashamed of himself for disrespecting and putting himself before that tradition!

He most likely will not since he himself probably believe in the McJesus and that he’s the ”saviour of the game” hype, but he really should be ashamed…

I know some people said he did not accept it since he didn’t want to steal the spotlight from the Panthers, but that smells bullcrap to me…

I think Oilers almost coming back but still losing makes it even sweeter. There is a lot of heart break. They were so cocky after game 6. Lol.

Losing team having the MVP is still stupid in my opinion. Its sports writers being too clever. Marty had seven shutouts and still lost.
