Wasn't the laughs suppose to do a reverse sweep against Florida?😂😂😂😂
Love your hockey passion and knowledge.
Thank you for another great season of videos and let's hope we finally get to celebrate a Leafs cup win next season.
From another long time Leafs fan
Congrats to the Knights but the NHL is definitely rigged to accommodate a rich new market with a championship team right out the gate!!! While the Canadian teams with maxed out revenue eat sh#t for decades
You need strong and willing players with hockey IQ to go all the way to the final. Skill alone cannot and will not take you to the promised land.
Going to miss watching the hockey games with you. Waiting to see what Toronto does in the draft, as well as contracts, and off season acquisitions should be interesting
The Florida Panthers run reminds me a bit of the Minnesota North Stars run in 1991. They were one of the lowest seeded teams. They then beat both the number one and number two teams, and then the defending Stanley cup champions to meet Pittsburgh in the Stanley cup final . They were competitive at first. Like Florida, in the second last game , they overcome a big deficit to make the game close but ultimately lost. Then in the first potential cup winning game, it was like the glass slipper fell off, and they lost 8-0.
Riley Nash?
What happens in Vegas stays in a Vegas sooo….. this is an unofficial cup win, no?!?
9-3 OUCH! Embarrassing
Was that Enough Proof for Ya about what I say about Paul Maurice.
He Trains His Teams to Play European Ice Soccer where You Back Pass and Just Poke at the Puck, You don't Fight for the Puck.
Notice that Florida was Perpetually on Their Wrong Stickside so They Couldn't Shoot at the Net without Losing the Puck.
Nobody on Florida used the Boards to Help Control the Puck in the Offensive Zones.
They have a Line Up of Young Players waiting to Jump in and Cover the Injured Players , but the NHL management wont allow it for some Reason, so the Injury Excuse is Crap.
Florida showed the world the frauds they are. When you cant pummel the other team you lose 9-3 in an elimination game during the finals. Pathetic
They dominated this whole series
Kolesar is going to haunt Tkachuk with that Sternum-shaking hit.
What a dissapointing final. Felt like it wasn't even close of a series.
Amazing – love all the thought and emotion you put into your videos! Thanks so much for your content
Boston choked, Florida smoked Toronto and Carolina but now Vegas owns them.
still can't believe the choke the Bruins pulled.
I think Barkov was hurting too. Vegas stayed healthy so was able to roll 4 lines, 3 D. Florida was out of gas and out of bodies at the end. Good for Vegas. Next year will be the same crap shoot every year is.
13:30 he said my name
Think the big takeaway is the line construction. The made a top 6 a top 9 by using role players and getting more out of them. Add to that the 4th line could score.
I grew up in Vegas in the early 2000s, moved to Chicago ~05 and barely knew what sports were lol. Got barraged by the Cubs/Sox/Blackhawks/Bears/Bulls and nothing really did it for me until I was in college and VGK came on the scene… after being so close in the first season, they finally UKnighted the Realm. My heart is so happy 🙂
Does lehner get his name on the cup?
"Hockey is over, basketball is over."
Not true, the WNBA is fully underway. And Toronto is most likely getting the next expansion team, so hop on the bandwagon while you can!
2018 we were just happy to be there 2023 were out for blood and 2024 we’re gonna solidify ourselves as a dynasty
How was Martinez' goal 1 goal away from being the Stanley Cup game-winning goal? Were there not Eight goals scored afrer he sfored? The score was 3-1 at that point (he scored the 4th goal of the game)….MAKE IT MAKE SENSE STEVEN.
Barbashev made it 7-1…not 7-2
14:23 Notable misfit Riley Nash.
PHIL KESSEL IS A THREE TIME STANLEY CUP CHAMPION
Damn it, Steve. As a lifelong Buffalo Sabres fan Ive been raised to despise the Leafs and that may never change. However, you are one likable dude and if the Leafs ever end their drought Ill be looking forward to watching your celebration. Good luck next season 👊
Great video- perfect summation of the Cup final and the season. Thanks for all you do, Steve!!
Not even gonna lie Florida has had a rough 2 years Tampa bay loses the cup to the Avs the Miami heat loss to the nuggets and now the Florida panthers lose to the Vegas knights a tough time to be in Florida sorry bout that one ☝️
Vegas was the first expansion team under the new expansion drafting rules, and basically every GM was scared to lose their good players, so they all either overpaid or paid a pick and/or players for Vegas to NOT pick their good players, and Vegas stockpiled a ton of free assets. George McPhee made a very clever move up front by announcing that he was gonna give each team a chance to keep their players, all they had to do is offer him something…
I HATE Vegas. I HATE Florida. That aside. Phil Kessel was traded from Toronto as he was not cup material. Since then he won 3 cups. Most Leafs fans I know want the core traded or some of them. I want all of them to stay. These players CAN win the cup. None may never win it. They all may win it. They all are capable of winning it. Past results have no bearing on future results. Many players, many great players went years without winning a cup – until, they did. Ray Bourque, Phil Kessel, Alex Ovechkin, Denis Potvin, Johnny Bucyk, Steve Yzerman, Gordie Howe, Alex Steen, Lanny McDonald, Tyler Boazk and many many more. The entire playoffs could be re-played and with different results in each series and a different cup winner. Saying we musty trade Matthews, Nylander and Marner is crazy.
Now your s***ty videos open not only with a pathetic plug for gambling, but for your "SDPN" too. How sad.
The Panthers did also touch the Eastern Wales Cup !! Maybe they should have been superstitious after all !!
In the end they choked and lost against a better team !
Biggest takeaway from the 2023 playoffs….defense wins championships. The final four teams were solid, defensively, with some solid goaltending. That defense, though, forcing turnovers and offensive chances, really affected those solid goaltenders.
I am of the opinion after the sweep, Panthers lost the momentum. Maybe Vegas still wins but could have taken it to 6-7 games
First Vegas player to hoist the cup is a Canadian!!!!!!👀😏😎👍🤘🌟🇨🇦
thank you for making this video. VGK VGK VGK!!!!!
I really thought Vegas had won in 2018.
