Don't worry folks! We'll take REAL GOOD care of the cup in Raleigh!

congats to Carolina... you played well and apparently wanted it more...

just remember, there is always next year for every other team out there...

STAND BACK, THERE'S A HURRICANE COMING' THROUGH! :tpg:

Carolina got to bring a championship home this year afterall! :P

Oh fuck you guys. >=(

Hurricane comin' tear up Raleigh liek wut.

They simply outplayed us. That's all it was. There was not a damn thing that we could do tonight. Passing to no one, not shooting, giving away the few chances we got. The Canes played much better as a team, and it showed.

The city is eerily quiet. The entire drive home, I didnt hear a damn thing. No voices, no horns, no nothing. I'm half expecting some idiot to throw himself off Rexall.

Oh well, can't win em all. And for an eight seeded team that no one thought was going to make it past game 4 of the Detroit series, we put up a fight. And there is always next year. And now I can finally wash my jersey. It's starting to grow its own playoff beard.

just so you all know, I still officially blame Conklin for this

You'll be back to compete next year. I think you had the better team, but just fell short. Blew opportunities, but you had them at least.

Glad to see the Canes win The Cup this year. Made Ronz happy, and won me 60 bucks!

Also, game seven was one of the fastest and hardest played games I've ever had the joy to watch. Non-stop action the entire time.

And I blame you guys getting Roloson late in the season which led to you guys defeating my home team in the first playoff series.

And you shouldn't blame Conklin. You should blame some Hurricanes for crashing into Roloson.

That was one hell of a game. Carolina deserved it but what a fight Edmonton put up. It's hard to believe that they finished 8th in the west, only to sweep the league's top team and make it all the way to game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Congratulations to the Hurricanes for their first cup in franchise history.

Hey pal I fixed your sentence up so it's actually accurate now!

Yeah, Bergeron is an idiot.

Another Oiler that gets on my nerves is Greene. I swear, I don't think I've ever seen him do anything useful. Of course, he gets about 90 penalties a game.

Hurricanes deserved to win last night it was pretty obvious. That had to be one of the best games I've seen this season too so much hitting involved. I honestly dont know how some of those players do it. Their bodies have to take so much punishment.

Congrats to the Hurricanes and Ronz.

Rod Brind'Amour is an ugly motherfucker.

ANYWAY, grats to the Canes. I totally called it if it went to 7. :)

Did anyone else see when the Canes were skating around with the Cup after the game and one of the players (I didn't know who) screamed, "Fucking A!". The audio cut out right after he said it. It was hilarious.

Hahaha yeah, that was awesome.

To me, another Cup in the Southeast Division is a great thing. Less and less shit can be given after two cups in a row.

Though it won't be coming down here to Sunrise anytime soon.

I hear Luongo's gonna be traded.

Things like this make me more excited about having the Lightning become my new home team come fall when I move to Orlando.

Fuck, I am so tired of places that don't have snow owning the cup.

Get used to it man. What do we have now in the sunbelt, Dallas, Tampa and Raleigh right?

Then we have the Anaheim, L.A and Miami making the finals at some point.

Don't think I don't know it. It still pisses me off, though.

Oh Bergeron knows it. The media hasn't exactly been kind to him.

And yes, they should dump Greene ASAP. He doesn't do anything. Except get penalties. He spends more fucking time in the box than on the ice.

While I'm bitching about my team for no good reason, I just gotta say I don't understand Hemsky. He can deke-out every single person on the ice, have a great shot lined up, and he'll pass. I really do think that he's afraid to shoot. If we could somehow train him to get that rubber thing in the net he'd be a fucking monster.

I really must say - having watched Carolina win the cup yesterday and the Heat winning the championship tonight - when the clock hit 0.00 at the very end in hockey, there was a outburst of pure, pure happiness and joy... it's always so exciting to watch an NHL team win the cup the moment the clock hits 0.00.

When the clock hit 0.00 for tonights game in b-ball, there was no explosion of joy, but just some cockiness and smiles. Nothing at all as fun to watch.

Anyone see the new Anaheim Ducks uniforms and logo?

Its eehhhhh I dont know. The colors are alright but the logo is terrible. Its just the word DUCKS across the chest.

Congratulations to Carolina. Edmonton was just unable to capitalize on their power plays again (and again with a 5 on 3).

So the draft is tomorrow and the league has seen the first big deal of the offseason with Todd Bertuzzi and Alex Auld moving from the Canucks to the Panthers in exchange for Roberto Luongo, Lukas Krajicek, and a 6th round draft selection.

I'm fairly sure Diss(Brent) will be happy about this. And the Vancouver media should be too because BERTUZZI HAS TO GO am i rite pal?

I can understand why Florida had to part with Luongo due to his resistance to signing a long term deal with them, and Bertuzzi should be a boost to the offense if he can keep his temper in check, but can they depend on Alex Auld to carry them?

Should be an interesting draft weekend indeed.

gentlemen, it's the end of an era.

The best logo and team name in sports is no more.

They say they want to seperate themselves from their Disney roots.
