Brooks Laich is such a good dude. I could never be a GM because I look at [most] of your list and think to myself, “Oh, I miss him.”

No kidding. Like god damn, the bitterness towards Mike Green the day after they win The Cup is a bit crazy haha. I’m was never saying he was a great player (though he objectively had a great three year stretch) it was more that he was so synonymous with the Capitals franchise and endured a lot of the hardships…

Nate Schmidt, good God what must be going through his head.

Pens fan here. Glad to see Ovi get the cup. I always said how it would be a damned crime if Ovi, one of the greatest to play the game, ended up as another Ken Griffey Jr., or Barry Sanders, or Dan Marino. He deserves to bask in the glory of lord stanley. Good year caps, now you have to defend the cup, let’s see how…

I’m a Wings fan and really wish Mike Green was part of that Caps team. I know he made the best decision for himself given that Detroit offered him more money and a larger role, but part of me wishes he was able to enjoy last night with Ovi and Backstrom.

As a Pens fan, I was also very happy to see him win one. It’s much deserved. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen anyone in recent memory want a cup win so bad, it was everything to him at this point.

I’m a Leafs fan, and a good Canadian boy that grew up in a time before Don Cherry was universally understood to be a jingoistic buffoon. I’ve always reserved the special places in my hockey fan heart for Canadian players. Ovi changed all that. Russians were supposed to be soft, but they were also supposed to be…

I’m a Flyer’s fan and yeah. I was pretty darn happy he finally won one. I was going to turn it off before the Cup parade but I’m glad I didn’t. The pure joy on his face was worth the extra 30-45 minutes of sleep I lost.

I’d love to make a smartass comment but all I can do is sit here in shock. I can’t believe this team is in the Finals. When we beat the Pens I literally screamed “FUCK YOU, PITTSBURGH” out the window, but this time I’m just in disbelief.
