The Tampa Bay Lightning failed to win game 6 and thus failed to advance, so the Colorado Avalanche won their first Stanley Cup since 2001.
They fucking earned it.
I'm a fan of the home team, and we got beat fair and square.
No shame and I am not going to be "that fan" and be pissed them for going down swinging.
If we had won this and the next game we would have entered the rarefied ranks of teams who'd won three in a row. It's not happened since 1982 when the New York Islanders did it; and they won a fourth in a row in 1983!
There's always next year.
Hah, I got to see most of game 5, was a good match up from I could tell.... and really, thats what its about: good competition, good sportsmanship, good entertainment! I don't want politics.
