The Calgary players DO NOT deserve it more than the Lightning players. It is equal there...but it is remarkable how good tampa has gotten from being a 40 point team.

Fans yes, but the fans don't count...if they did leafs would of won 40 cups since 1967.

oOo:

For which team deserves it more, I had to think about this for a while. It all depends on how you define it.

Through the playoffs: The flames deserve it more. They beat the top three seeds in the West, including the Presidents Trophy Champions. That is the first time ever a team has beat all three divisional champions in order to get to the Cup. Clearly, Calgary had the harder road to the Cup, as well as battled major injuries through out the regular season and the playoffs. Tampa hardly had any injuries at all.

As for the past couple of years, Tampa has made strides to get here. They were in the playoffs last year, and this year improved on that. So i'll give them that. However, i'm not going to say this years Flames team is a fluke. Many of our current players were from the rebuilding years after '96. I really believe Sutter and the additions he made was the final piece to this team. I don't think it's an overnight success, and I do think they've worked very hard to be here.

As for players, you can say Anderychuck deserves it, but you can say the same for Lowry.

Without bias I can say that I belive Calgary desreves it more.

But it doesn't really matter who deserves it more, it's about who wins the next game.

Battered, bruised but not beaten!

Go Flames Go!

Screw all of you guys, the N.Y. Rangers deserve it more!! biggrin:

1994...so nah...plus your best player is a leaf now.

As long as ninty says andreychuk deserves iy...i'm ok with whoever wins next game. All in all we have two teams that deserve it this year.

You guys want Iginla? He's a free agent after this year.

I'm sure Calgary will lock him up because no one will want him to go anywhere especially after this year.

Well take anything we can!! We're getting tired of missing the playoffs. oOo:

lol the rangers just dumped all their high paid players, they arent going to be good for a long time

Yeah, thanks for Simon by the way NY. rock:

Be good to Mclennan. He's an awesome guy. Everyone in Calgary really wishes he was still here. You can have Turek and we'll take Mclennan back. What a great guy he is. Can't say enough about him. Good ol' noodles.

I'm so nervous right now. This is good because I was nervous before game 5, but not before game 6. So by that logic it means Calgary will win since my nervousness has everything to do with who wins the cup.

GO FLAMES GO!

sutter said regehr isnt playing and donovan probably wont play

Both practiced hard today and are not ruled out 100%.

Uh-oh
1-0 Tampa in the 1st

tampa will win

TAMPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaa
BOLTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSS

good series

mad: mad:

andreychuk wins his first cup sitting in the penalty box... lmao... good game overall, TB deserved it, so oh well, stanley can get a tan and come back to Canada next year...

meh

gay. Florida doesn't need a CUP cANADA DOES.

sorry dudes...maybe next year....if there is a next year

Just dont turn into anaheim as can be seen this year

Andercyhuck has hot ass daughters! it was really great game especially those last minutes where Calgary was starting to put on the boost there! Habbi was doing a great job in net there with this key saves

he looks liek a horse

lol USA pwns

i wouldn't mind flooding Florida so it is completely underwater...who needs swamplands anyway?

Wow, what a series, and what a game! These two teams really played their hearts out and it's a shame that only one can walk away the winner. I'm glad TB won it because of Andreychuk and the fact that it's TB's 1st Championship.

On a side note, are the Calgary fans rioting? I sure hope not. Alot of people are crying themselves to sleep tonight up in Canada i bet. Being so close in game 6 was the heart-breaker.

Its gota be an extra bite in the ass for a canada team to loose the cup to a hockey team in florida. On the up side they can all see it when they flood in here this winter. This is like the john candy movie Cool running. I especially liked knocking those asshat philly fans out of the playoffs like we did to win the super bowl.

Come on, can we keep the upper half.

Calgary played terrible the first two periods...they deserved to lose that game. And running St. Louis with 1 minute left had to of beent he stupidest thing I've seen in hockey all playoffs.

Dave Andreychuk wins the cup, he deserves it.

He should of raised the cup in '93 as well.

At least u all still have nationalized health care, Alanis Morisette and Canadian Bacon. Buck up.

Don't forget Anne Murray.

Good series.

Congrats Tampa.

I really hope that the people down there embrace the Holy Grail, and not just forget about it tomorrow as Football season comes around, because I know how much the Cup would have been cherished in Calgary. Tampa deserved to win tonight, and I hope the fans prove to me that they deserve it as well. That’s all I’m going to say about that.

Calgary just ran out of gas. Yes, we played not so great in teh first 2 periods, but this was our 108th game this season. We played 3 overtimes in the game 7 of Vancouver, many overtimes in Detroit and many in San Jose. I think it just caught up with us. Not mention all the injuries. Here we have Regher, our best defense man possibly playing with a broken foot. Donovan was out from game 5 on and he’s an integral part of our second line. Not to mention all the injuries that haven't come to light yet and all the players that we didn't have in the lineup for the pretty much the entire playoffs including: Reinprecht, Gauthier, McAmmond, and Lombardi from the Detroit series on. Those are major players missing from our lineup.

I'm glad for Dave. Now he can retire in peace. Richards deserved the Conn Smythe, he played well. I don't think neither St. Louis nor Lecavlier played very well in the series. I don't think they deserved it this series. Khabbiboulin played well. Dingman played well, and that’s hard for me to say.

I do think the league needs to do something about goals crossing the line and such. How hard is it to put a chip in the puck so when it crosses the line the red light goes on? That way there is no controversy. I don't really know if that puck went over the line, but it would be nice to know for sure. Now I kind of know how Buffalo felt in '99.

The refing was questionable through out the playoffs. Namely the Gelinas hit from behind. Apparently hitting Lecalvier from behind deserves 5 and a game, but drilling Gelinas from behind warrants no penalty, and no suspension and Saprykins tripping in the game 7 of this series. That was the same move used to trip Simon which scored the winning goal in overtime in Game 6. So call it all the time or don't call it at all. Simple to me. Andrew Ferences hit with 1 minute left was not Charging. The hit was CLEAN. it wasn't from behind, and it was away from the boards. The stick of Ference got up on the face of St. Louis, yes, HOWEVER calling a penalty on any team with 1 minute left in game 7 of the Stanley Cup final where the teams are separated by ONE goal should not happen. I don't care if the guy is dead, you don't call a penalty with the game on the line. Let the players decide the game. Same goes for 5 on 3's. You just don't call them in the final.

All things aside, we still had a chance to win. Leopold had a wide open net and Khabbiboulin robbed him. That’s the way it goes sometimes.

Looking back I’m so proud of these guys. They have given me so much happiness over this past season. So many ups and downs. So many tings to cheer for. So many high fives, so many memories, so much emotion. I love this team, and I love this game. The best game in the world. I'm so glad I live here to experience this team and this game.

We lost to a great team, the best in the east. A team with 106 points. The Calgary Flames have everything to be proud of.

THANK YOU CALGARY FLAMES!

I end with a quote:

We left Calgary as a proud hockey club.
We came to Tampa as a proud hockey club.
We will leave Tampa as a proud hockey club.

i called the outcome of this series after game 4, no one believed me when i said tampa could lose game 5 and still come back and win 6 and 7. it was so wild tonight near the ice palace lots of fun, great times....go bolts!!!

Wow, really? It's called a prediction dip shit. I don't own a time machine. This series could have gone either way and I don't think your prediction had anything to do with it.

Did you call the Lightning to let them know they were going to win for sure? They should make a movie about you like Angels in the Outfield so you can let the Lightning know if their going to win that night.

Go back to persecuting Jews.
