Congratulations to the Washington Capitals on being crowned Stanley Cup Champions!!
And especially to Ovie who finally joins elite company in winning Lord Stanley's silver chalice. Plus, being named Conn Smythe Trophy winner as MVP.
Ovechkin ties Sidney Crosby for most post-season goals (15) scored in the past two decades.

Accolades to the Vegas Golden Knights for a captivating and historical season for a first year expansion franchise.
The way the city of Las Vegas embraced their only professional sports team was indeed Golden.
Golden Knights paid tribute to their sipporters:

Waiting for Ovie to go over and hoist the Cup was the most anticipated and excited I've ever been in seeing an opposing player lift it over his head. You could just feel both the relief and joy he was experiencing.
Now the whole notion Ovie can't lead you to a Cup can be put to bed. And since having a Cup on your resume supposedly makes you a better player, it should shoot him up in the greatest players of all-time list.
And thankfully this Vegas joke can be put to bed. Good riddance. Washington made them look ordinary, and makes you wonder how the three teams before them got run over by the Golden Knights.

Happy to see former Leafs great Olaf Kolzig lift the Cup:

Especially after all the years of disappointment for him it was so well deserved. Quite the contrast to the Vegas fanbase who experienced immediate success and why so many other long suffering fanbases didn't want Vegas to win. Really happy for Ovechkin and those diehard fans in Washington who have been on board since the 70s and had to experience all those playoff failures...double OT, triple OT...the list goes on.

Weird... I was told by an expert in lip-reading that Trotz was done in Washington.
