The Stanley Cup stays in AMERICA
6-17-2025

Posted on 06/17/2025 7:56:30 PM PDT by Impy

Down 3-0 the Oilers went with an empty net with 7 minutes left, promptly gave up 2 empty netters.

Baltimore won the Grey cup more recently than a Canadian team won the Stanley Cup. ;D

Ditto for Nevada. Vegas won the Cup two years ago.

Went to a Trump rally in August 2016 held there at the home ice of the Florida Panthers.

Zach Hyman’s injury definitely hurt. He is the muscle on the McDavid line, like Semenko and McSorley were Gretzky’s bodyguards.

I'm the same, mostly. I can watch baseball in person, though.

Back when the players didn’t wear helmets and even the goalie didn’t wear face protection. It was a much rougher game. Most of those guys lost their teeth.

“Used to watch the Chicago Blackhawks on WGN channel 9. Glen Hall . . .”

A ways back, I was curious as to who the back-up goalie was the year the Hawks won the Cup back then (might have been Dennis DeJordy), so I looked up the regular season stats for the team:

https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/teams/chicago-blackhawks-players-1960-61-nhl-stats.html

Lo and behold, goalie Glenn Hall played *every* regular season game that year (!), and I expect every post-season game as well. Can you imagine anything close to that happening in the modern game?
