I’m in absolute tears!!!! I was 8, just a lil guy skating around with Sakic in mind when the Avs last won… I can’t believe we are here we did it we win! I have played 23 years of hockey will never forget this year we the year as an adult I can truly appreciate this!
My grandpa was 8 when we last won. Congrats to you guys! You deserved it, what a great team!
Same story bro!!!!!
I lived in Co. for the Avs. first season. Met a girl who was in town shooting the new Cadillac with a photography outfit from Detroit. They were all hard Wings fans. I wore an Avs jersey for pick up games. Gave her the jersey and bet the crew that Avs would beat the Wings for the Conference. Then took the cup in "96. first of 3.
Married the girl. Got my jersey back.
@@rdlykryk4384 dude that's badass!!!!!
savor it!
Lehkonen's winning goal was great. The best team of the season won. Congratulations Colorado Avalanche!
Best tdl trade ever!
@@reyjusuf I agree.
Agreed. I hate Cinderella stories in sports, let the best win.
@@mattblom3990 What's wrong with Cinderella stories? It gets boring seeing the best team win all the time
@@dawsonpetryshen581 I'm not sure how to answer you. Maybe it's a personality difference or that I work in sales where only results matter but I don't find the best team, the expected team, winning boring. I enjoy watching total domination and slaughter in sports.
I'm a TB Lightning fan but I'm also a hockey fan... congratulations to the Colorado Avalanche and their fans.
Loser
thats what you guys get hahahha
@@sterlingfox3135 I’m an avs fan and this is the most moronic response from a person with very low IQ
Do u live in tampa or just a fan boy
@@jimmihaley9679 I live in Tampa
The Avalanche went from a piss poor 48 point season in 2016-17 to beating the back-to-back champs 5 years later. This is a really inspiring win. Congrats and savor this win! It is nothing short of being well earned.
To be fair (to be faaaaaaaaaair-uh), it started long before 2016-17. Had two failed rebuilds before this one worked. Took a lot of luck and a lot of Top 5 draft picks to get to the Top.
@@justinlast2lastharder749 welllll to be fair, it starts for every team when they come into the league and after they win a cup... But Col were sitting on the outside just looking in before they tore it down a tiny bit and have turned into a real beast starting a few years ago.
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Just a legendary season all around. This whole 2022 Avs season is one for the record books.
SAVOUR, you made six years sound like six months lol.
For us Habs fan there’s a lot of comfort in knowing Lekky scores the gwg. Grats Avs!
these playoffs just made me realize even more how underappreciated and misused he was in montreal.
He was amazing. I knew when the AVS got him it was a big deal that nobody seemed to understand. Glad Giroux went somewhere else.
as a Habs fan im not blind i can see that lekhonen goal was assisted by the referee -.-
Also habs fan, we all knew he was very good 200 ft player. A little balm for our wounds.
There's also a another silver lining:
Kucherov won't make a fool of himself this year.
Taken out by an ex Mtl player, sweet revenge!
Just for that! TY Av's!
@@kroduk2400 oh god😂😂🤣🤣
Congrats to the Avs. We’ll deserved! Nothing shows „we want this“ more than such a feisty MacKinnon. To Tampa: hold your heads high! Hell of a team!
Bist du auch Deutscher? Ich hab diese „“ erkannt ;)
Congrats Avs!! They played their hearts out, great job. Definitely deserved it. Great job to both teams tbh. One hell of a game
Didn't matter to me who won. It was good hockey except for that blowout game. Now it's done and I am "over it". Can't wait too see what the trades are over the summer and it there are any real "mind blowing/blockbuster" trades. Plus who does or doesn't resign with teams or teams don't want to resign them. Malkin is going to be VERY interesting. Next season won't be about who wins the Cup, but as always will be. Can Buffalo actually make it to the Playoffs :) :)
Epic Playoffs!!
So Cool!! #koios 😅 Peace ✌
Their first in 21 years
My oh my, Lehkonen’s value has tripled during this playoff
After Last year play off and this year its 6x higher :D
These guys ain't going nowhere. Colorado is not done.
@@rbeforme pretty sure they’ll resign em
Habs fan and been for since i was born. Fun fact.. Lehkonen was the guy fans wanted to get rid of for years... It was everywhere, in radio shows, newspapers.. Fans calling radio host and go ''Lehkonen is a leech.. he doesn't produce and yet, coach keeps giving chances to play the PP .. Get rid of him, exchange him vs a 4th round pick for all i care'' etc.
Who's laughing now ?
I swear, MTL fan base is toxic. The pseudo-experts voice their opinions and the organisation gets the pressure.. and then, they take poor decisions. Look at what happened with Droin vs Sergachev ? We didn't have enough french Canadian players so we taded Sergachev for Drouin... What a joke !
Just glad, this time, we resisted the pressure and we waited to get a good value for Lekhonen.. but seing how he played in these 2 last playoffs, especially this one, maybe we didn't get enough.
@@GreyZonex I was a Habs fan almost my whole life, but I just couldn't take the toxicity anymore and ditched them a few years ago. I can't stomach an organization that prioritizes language and politics above winning, then add in the toxic media climate ugh
What a year for a Finnish hockey. Lehkonen and Rantanen winning was the icing on the cake.
@McDavid There is 60 minutes of playing time in a hockey game. In that time you should score more goals than the other team. If you need perfect refs to make it perhaps you should not play in this world but the next one.
@McDavid Its only silly because it's yhe truth. 😭
@McDavid I disagree, bad calls were pretty equal. I was there watching it live and what a great experience it was.
@McDavid Canada's second goal should have been disallowed, refs missed the obvious penalty. In overall the better team won.
...for EJ. You can always come back from dark times.. he kept getting hit and knocked down these 14 years and just kept getting up and refused to quit. Thought he would retire last year and then gets to hoist the cup. His interview with the local station was incredible. Way to go EJ and all the ones who wouldn't quit. Never give up.
So happy for him!
So happy for him & the fellas.
WOO WOO!!!
Left, right, left....
Congratulations to the 2021-22 Colorado Avalanche on this Stanley Cup win. They're one of the fastest teams I've seen in ages.
Completely agree on the speed! Teams used to be built on size, now their built on speed.
Great series. This is the third cup I’ve seen raised by the Colorado Avalanche. There was a time when we thought we could do it every year but we know that hockey doesn’t work that way. Big thanks to Super Joe Sakic for putting together a beauty of a team.
Heck, let’s go for another one! Go Avalanche!
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Burnaby Joe*
Meanwhile a tear or two from Quebec.
Bolts fan here; congratulations Avalanche.
no
Thank you. That was an amazing series between two awesome hockey teams. Lots of emotions and excitement! The players were awesome!
Tampa-TAMPAX!
I thought bolts were guna come thru. The goaltending was amazing in this game, especially Tampa's. Avs had more shots n really pushed for that W.
That was an incredibly dominant third period for the Av’s given the circumstances. Their road play (especially when the other team is on the brink) has been phenomenal all playoffs and they definitely delivered here.
2 big brooms says it all. Everyone and their grandma knew this was coming. GO AVS
they use to play horribly with the lead. They played their best with the lead when it mattered most. Thank goodness!!!
Four shots for TB in the 3rd. Suffocating by the Avs. Great job
Such a good call by Cuthbert at the end… as an Avs fan I wish we had this broadcast for the big moment here in the US
I agree. I thought the commentary on ABC was alright, but a little unsteady at times. Also anything owned by Disney these days has a distinct lack of a soul.
He's been on the call for a lot of big moments. Congrats to the Avs and their fans
Lehkonen wins it man, so happy for him… he was one of my favorites on the habs
Shame they couldn’t have Price win a Cup as well. If anyone deserves a Cup, he does.
Great year for Finland and Finnish hockey. World Championship, Olympic Gold and then a Finnish player scored the Stanley Cup winning goal. Tampa is a tough team to beat but it was well deserved Cup for the Avs. Great playoffs.
16 wins boys. Great game for Darcy. Proud of this group. Especially Bednar. Fantastic work.
16 wins in 20 games! Avs has been close to Edmonton record of the shortest path to Stanley Cup
The best finals I’ve seen. Incredibly high quality hockey.
blues bruins 2019 cup was beat ever for me a blues fan first cup ever
@@brenanwilley1988 Of course you're going to think so. You're a blues fan, and all blues fans are total homers who can't be objective about anything.
This was great - first time watcher and it was awesome to watch this sport from South Africa. Love the physicality and speed of it.
Been keeping an eye on the Avalanche roster develop for 7 years now. It's been crazy watching them gradually improve into the powerhouse they put together this year. Bolts played well, but Colorado earned the hell out of that Cup!!! Grats Avs, much love from Chicago!
I was a lil kid at the bowling alley on my dad's league watching them win the Stanley Cup in 01 & fell in love with the team, the colors, the logo. Nothing but respect to the Bolts y'all made the Avs work hard for it as we knew ya would. Seeing Landy, EJ, MacKinnon & everyone else skate with the trophy & team pic was amazing. All The Small Things finally paid off & now We Are The Champions.
Let's Go Avalanche!!!
WOO WOO!!!
❄️🏆❄️
Congrats from a Swiss hockey fan who grew up with a poster of David Aebischer lifting the cup right above my bed. Great team effort, what a season.
No matter what team wins I love watching the players celebrate with their families because behind each player there are countless people supporting them.
Great to see Landeskog finaly get his Stanley cup 💪💪 well deserved
Avs did something we couldn't congrats Colorado was rooting for you guys to do it! Enjoy the cup!!!
GO AVS. We're so proud of this team back here in Pueblo Colorado.
Mikko Lehtonen with yet another series winning goal
I'm a die-hard TB fan. Colorado absolutely deserved, and earned this. Dynasties can't last forever, and Colorado should be SUPER proud of themselves! Very good series, Avs, enjoy the Cup 👍
Awesome, enjoyed the whole run. The Colorado community needed this!!
Congrats to the avs from a wings fan! Y’all deserved it. For the lightning, y’all did well. What you guys have done in this salary cap era is beyond impressive! It’s just that you had Perry. But that was the dream series and it happened and it didn’t disappoint. Great hockey!
Yes, this was great playoff hockey between two great teams.
I think Kemper quietly had a fantastic series. Often made big saves when his team was down a goal.
Let’s go Avs!!! What an amazing moment, this team has truly been through so much since the last time we won it all and it’s been such an incredible ride. Hats off to the Lightning who played with so much heart this series. Gonna be savoring this moment for years to come!! 👏🏻🎉
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Sad life.
Felt awesome watching Mackinnon win it as a Mooseheads fan
MacKinnon is garbage lmao but it was very enjoyable seeing the Avalanche win it.
@@MarshmallowEclipse Worst take ever
Tampa may have lost, but I wonder how Matt "I want playoff hockey" Duchene is feeling right about now
Possibly the best comment, right there!
Or Phillip Grubauer 😂
I CAN'T GIVE THIS ENOUGH THUMBS UP!!
He wanted Playoff Games and has played more Playoff Games than the Avalanche have played since he left. He got his Playoff Games, Avs got a Cup. Win/Win. "Be careful what you wish for" indeed.
@@justinlast2lastharder749 no he doesn’t… he’s only played in 32 in his career. He’s been gone since 2017-18 in which he’s played 20… total. The Avs played 20… this post season.
Congrats to the Avs, they were the best team to represent the west and they didn`t disappoint.
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Such worthy winners! Long live the Avalanche! ❤ Welcome to the Stanley Cup winner club Landeskog and Burakovsky. All the Swedish fans are extra proud 🇸🇪
From a lifelong Bolts fan, well deserved Avs and enjoy the summer. See you all next season!
Tampa-TAMPAX!
Respect. Both great teams. Fans on both teams who complain about the refs ruin that, but fans who can acknowledge defeat are true class. It was such a close series, and Tampa should try to win next year for sure. Plenty of window open
New York Rangers fan congratulates Colorado Avs! Respect for your Performance!
What a game from Byram. He got better as the playoffs went along.
He became the Avs best defensive defenseman in the playoffs. So solid!
That's three Cups in three attempts for the Avalanche franchise!
3 cups 50+ years. You say it like that's some crazy achievement.
@@jleif7736 winning every final youve been in is pretty impressive

@@jleif7736 Bro what? The Avs aren't even 30 years old lmao
@@Anthony-GoAvsGo No, your franchise has been around since the 70's it would be 3 in 50+ years
OK, now that the Avs have won, I can let go of my resentment towards Kucherov for his classless drunk comments of last year after eliminating the Habs. And it's Lekhonen, who was with the Habs last year, and who scored the goal that allowed Montreal to get to the finals against Tampa, who has the game winning goal. Double satisfaction ! It will be a great Summer !
Nah his press conference was legendary but i guess not for montreal fans ;)
@@debr4265 ha, no that was classless. Karma looks great on that piece of garbage.

@@kroduk2400 😢
@@kroduk2400 you would have never even seen the finals if you didn't get a lot of help from the refs so how about some level-headed respect for the champions. I watched all the final games as a neutral and Avs the better team, by faaaaar.
Big Avalanche fan and man it has been since 2001. When they last won the Stanley Cup 21 years. Congratulations AVS.
Better team won, and didn’t need an “altitude advantage” to do it. Congrats champs 🏆
Bruh, both goals should have been reviewed a bit more.... but the refs had some pretty bad calls. Good game tho and the avatar should have had a better game even without the two goals.
Better team won, all without needing to cheat their salary cap. Congrats Avs! - from an Oilers fan.
Clown
Bro stop with this reviews refs bullshitt. They were the better team period. Bad calls go both ways, but one team was better and it’s Colorado. Tampa still very good tho, don’t get me wrong. But the Tampa fans ref whining is ironic and very old.
@@nathancarter7339 perfectly said from a whining fan the fans do it the coach does it the team does it you lost suck it up
Congrats to the Avs on winning the cup. Also congrats to Perry for becoming a 3-peat Stanley cup runner-up!
the man is absolutely cursed to forever lose in the cup final. poor guy
He already has his name in the cup. I think he'll recover. Again.
He has his name on the cup already, but yeah. He must ask himself what ladder has he walked under, what black cat has he seen since his only SC win to-date, that has him being the bridesmaid for 3 consecutive years.
@@distortedsoul27 Still better than your record.
@@darrenfleming7901 Not too bright then? Darren’s rarely are.
Kuemper literally pushing skaters away so he could find his goalie buddy to hug! How to know you have an amazingly awesome goaltending duo!
This is truly surreal. I remember watching the Avalanche win the 2001 cup with my father, I was 13 years old. Here we are 21 years later and I got to watch the Avalanche win the 2022 cup at age 34 with my 2 girls. What more could you ask for in life? Congrats Avalanche!!! Great series, Lightning!! You did NOT make it easy!
This was an amazing series! One of the BEST finals series I've ever watched, sure the officialing could have been better but overall this was so fun to watch, both teams desplayed amazing preformance and I couldn't ask for a better game 6. Congrats Av's you deserve it!
Pretty one-sided, don't know what aspect of this series you felt was one of the BEST.
@@apointtomake1517 Nice sentiment, but absolutely false.
Just FYI Vyxy, the reason it was one of the Best series you've ever seen is BECAUSE the refs let them play. The didn't call every little thing and let the teams slug it out. Playoff hocjey at its best.
@@RodCalidge Nick, I agree that they let them play and I like that. Before I go on, I'm a Bolts fan and I offer my congratulations to the Avs...gutty team.
The only problem I have is the REALLY FLAGRANT penalties...Manson's yanking Bellmare around with his stick and to the ice was as flagrant as it gets...and that goal would not have been made if the penalty was called...because it was Manson who made the great pass to set up the goal. I'm with you on ticky tacky calls, especially in the playoffs and more so in the Finals...but there was THAT one that was the one that should've been called...and trust me when I say it's NOT because of the goal...I'm a bigger fan and a man than that. The 4 tripping calls that weren't called I could care less about.
I think the Avs would've won in any case. The Bolts passing game sucked tonight...Salud.
@@1060michaelg I actually didn't see a penalty there. I saw Bellemare get tangled up with Manson's stick and Manson trying to pull his stick free. No intent there, just two players getting mixed up and one of them falling.
Of course perceptions are going to be different, but from this neutral's perspective there was no need to call that.
Thank you Lightnings for the great season and playoff games! Avalanches congratulations, you really deserve to be the winners of 2022!
two teams with all kinds of heart and determination, that is what it takes to be here and win the cup. In hockey talent ain't enough alone you gotta want it. And any team that finally wins the cup has spent a few years learning determination and heart, Avs absolutely deserve this. too bad that in a series like this that someone has to lose. just good good hockey. thank you to both teams for a great series and totally enjoyable hockey.
I love watching the players each get the cup. It's so epic ,you can feel the magnitude of what that trophy represents. I especially like experiencing a players first cup after years of trying and the probability of retiring without winning one, then the unbridled joy that can't be matched in any other team sport.
Congratulations Avalanche for winning the cup! Go Lekke! Great acquisition in the short term. He made a difference in the playoffs and scored the Stanley Cup winning goal!
Congrats to the Avs,
Tampa; you guys are legends, hold your head high
For-Under-Coal-Key the Lightning! And For-Under-Coal-Key the Buccaneers too! Maybe I'll root for the D-Rays though.
Tampa-TAMPAX!
@Jason Fitch КалуРады поимели Затычек!
I'm glad Newhook has a cup now. He was great this season after being brought up because of injuries. He's got a bright future ahead of him
Avs fan here and this was an epic series no matter how you look at it. A great moment tonight. Was there for 96 and 2001 in person. Stick taps to Tampa for a great series and they didn’t go down without a fight. How fitting that it was Lehkonen who got the game winning goal against the Bolts, just less than a year after losing to them. So many stories here and just love the great game of hockey so much.
Oh my Congrats Avs. Good fight Tampa
I am going to miss this series all summer long
Thanks to all players gave me the pleasure of watching hockey this season.
Over the moon to see my Avs bringing home the cup after so long. This year's team was absolutely outstanding to watch. They truly won the cup how it was meant to be done. That said, to the Lightning, you definitely did not make it an easy win, and you made them earn it. A hell of a series for sure.
Absolutely deserved. It´s absolutely remarkable feeling being Avs fan for almost 25 years and see them winning. Remaining only team in nhl who has more than 1 stanley cup and never loss in finals.
This victory by the Colorado Avalanche is for the fans who have stuck with the team through thick and thin. It was literally the Avs versus everyone. The media, other fanbases, haters and trolls constantly attempted the Avs to doubt themselves. From "Now, they are facing a real goalie" to "Mackinnon doesn't come through when it matters", the Avs silenced their critics with their vision and resilience.
The road to the cup was challenging. Injuries was always a factor. Flaws kept re-surfacing. Despite all these challenges, the team prevailed. Here are some notable moments of the season:
- Starting the season with a 4-6 record.
- Losing to Columbus in a home and home series in the same fashion: giving up the lead in the third period.
- Outscoring their opponents 36 to 15 in their six game winning streak (November 11th-24th, 2021).
- Losing embarrassingly to the Leafs 8-3 with Johansson behind the net. He was later waived in the season.
- Losing to Ottawa in OT when the Senators held the worst record in the NHL.
- Reminded the Leafs who they are after giving up a 4-1 lead to the Avs and losing in overtime.
- Set a NHL record in points for the month of January (15-0-1).
- Kuemper went on a 4 month stretch where his ERA declined consistently.
- Set a franchise home winning streak record with 18.
- First loss when scoring first on March 8th, 2022. Lost to the Devils after blowing a 3-0 lead.
- Gabriel Landeskog became a Jet killer with 7 goals and 1 assist in 2 games. He had hat tricks in both of those games.
- In the trade deadline, Joe Sakic made his move by acquiring Josh Manson, Andrew Cogliano, Nico Sturm and Artturi Lehkonen.
- Cale Makar roasted the Predators in the first round of the playoffs with 10 pts in a 4 game sweep.
- Nazem Kadri lives rent free in the Enterprise Center when he scored a hat trick in game 4 against the St. Louis Blues. This was after he received death threats in social media.
- Darren Helm helps overcome the Avs' demons that has plagued them for the last 3 years by scoring the series clinching goal on the road against the Blues with less than 6 seconds to go.
- The bottom six, led by JT Compher, torches the Oilers in special teams and forechecking.
- After Kuemper suffers an upper body injury, Pavel Francouz came through in the clutch as he helped the Avs sweep the Oilers. This includes a dominant game 2 shutout.
- Artturi Lehkonen sends his team to the Stanley Cup for the second consecutive year by scoring the conference winning goal in OT against Edmonton.
- Andre Burakovsky's experience against the Lightning comes to play as he helps lift the Avs with an OT goal in game 1.
- The Avs destroys the Lightning with a 7-0 win in game 2 and credits Kuemper with his first playoff shutout for the season.
- Cale Makar scores a SHG and PPG in the same period in game 2 against Tampa Bay.
- Kadri's redemption tour continues as he scores the OT goal in game 4 against the Lightning. This was his first Stanley Cup game after he came back from a thumb injury he suffered from Evander Kane.
- Lehkonen scores the Stanley Cup winning goal to gives the Avs a 4-2 series win.
It was a very memorable year, Avs fans. We may have differences on how we want the team to improve. However, it is not enough to divide us because we have a common goal. It is to see the Avs win the Stanley Cup. It doesn't matter how it is done as long as they find the way. They found that path yesterday.
Enjoy your summer, Avs fans. I know I will
Something special may be coming Colorado's way, team is young 🤔 Go Avs!!!!
I would say for next 6-7 years
3:27 Rantanen and Lehkonen skating nicely in sync
😂 that was great. Synchronized skating champions!!!
Haha good catch 😂
Finnish telepathy
10 come back wins, TEN and two were in the Cup Finals. What a resilient bunch, no quit in them! GO AVS GO!!!
Thank you Avs for bringing the cup back to the west. You are the best!
Remember how Tampa and Rangers fans were convinced Avs would get swept in the finals... Lol, okay.
Tampa-TAMPAX!
The Lightning really only had FOUR shots on goal in the 3rd?? That was incredible defense by the Avs.
Well done Avs. You are BEASTS.
So proud of my man Gabriel Landeskog, not easy to become a nhl captain as a 19 year old Swede but he proved us he could. What an amazing playoff in general by the Av's. Thanks yall for a great season see you next year!
Tampa finally met their match. Glad it was at the hands of one of the best teams out there, and glad it was competitive all around. Lots to be proud of for both teams!
@RolandCreative You meant THE BEST. Maybe that was a typo?
@@bfraze9658 No I don't think it was.
Avs are champions, deservedly so, literally no one is denying that lol. Not sure if you know this but stats say Tampa had the hardest path to the finals going through the President's trophy Panthers, 115 point (4 less than colorado) Maple Leafs, and Vezina winning Rangers.
So yeah, I'd say Colorado is "one of the best" teams TB faced getting here.
This team made me follow the NHL a couple of years ago when the Landy-Mack-Moose line was put together. Hasn't been easy, but sure feels good now! And after 5 years of waiting the cup comes back to Finland! Congratz guys!
Congrats Avs and their fans. What an awesome season. Ever since I saw MacKinnon at juniors winning the Memorial Cup, you knew he had the clutch gene. That came through tonight. And no words for Makar. We are blessed as hockey fans right now. When you have a guy (McDavid) being compared to Gretzky/Lemieux and another (Makar) to Orr, these are wonderful times. See y'all next season.
Love it both teams played their hearts out, congrats Aves
Congrats to the Avs and all its fans!! This whole season has been a true treat to watch and you guys deserve all the hardware! The progress you guys have made in the past 5 years should be a model to EVERY team on how to rebuild the right way and you guys will be at the top of the league for a while with all these young studs. Hope we can get a little ‘96 rematch going in the near future 🙌
More likelier, you'll start playing like the post Marino Dolphins again.
Great series, As a swede I'm happy for Landeskog, he deserves it, happy for Burakovsky and the finns too..
Thank you for posting this. Congrats to the Avs.
Congrats avalanche . U destroyed my Oilers and u deserved lord Stanley awesome team awesome job

as a montreal fan i can confidently say that Lekhonen was worth the 1st round pick :P we're gonna miss him alot such a good hard working player

Im so proud of them..well done you avs
Been waiting my whole life for this. Congrats boys, what a run

Yes ! Yes ! Yes ! You did it ! you are the champions!
I'm a die hard red wings fan but man.. It's been a joy watching this series. Makar is crazy. Hands down the most interesting player i've seen in my lifetime.
Congratulations to Avs, what a power house. Tampa was out played. Speed and agility, Avs are the New Champions 🏆. The media kept telling me tampa this tampa that. All those great players. You showed them who you really are the BEST.
Yup! Tampa this, Tampa that! BARF!!!!!!!
Take out Vasilevsky and that serie would've been very short. Tampa fought well, but the Av's were in the zone. Fantastic 3 rd period, they simply dominated.
After every Avalanche goal a 5 min review those were not Tampa bolts those were tampon strings
No team has ever played more than 2 teams in the playoffs that won 50 games or more in the regular season.
These playoffs Tampa played FOUR. Toughest route for any team and it showed the last few games. Vasiliesky kept them in it but man those guys played with some courage when they were being out skated.
@@MrMistrEnigma So Tampa plays in a division where half the teams are awful. I guess when you get to beat up on teams like the Canadiens, Senators, Red Wings and Sabres for a combined 16-20 games, plus the Islanders, Blue Jackets, Devils and Flyers 3 each (another 12), it wouldn't be hard to get 50 wins.
Whatta year for Finnish ice hockey,. Olympic gold, World champion and now the Finnish player scored the winning goal to win Stanley Cup.

as a Leafs fan happy to see Nazem Kadri get his first cup... and grats Colorado, you have a great team and played with a lot of heart
Same. Idk why I'm so proud but I am 😅
Congrats AVS well deserved from a Bolts fan. I know this feeling we've been spoiled so enjoy! Just wished we had Point healthy!!!! His speed and IQ was missed but nevertheless well deserved......
Thanks for being a good sport. Coming from a leafs fan. You guys have nothing to be ashamed as you almost became a dynasty. Great series. Maybe the next 3 years?
My Avs didn't even have Girard or Burakovsky tonight game plus we didn't have some what our best players didn't score tonight game....just imagine if they all truly played????
@@pumalogo204 Don't turn a win into a loss, go enjoy it!
@@WalkableBulb905 sorry, Kuch will never see another cup! Take that to the bank……
Point is a gamechanger when healthy. A big loss for the bolts. Nick Paul was really good. Hope he gets a good contract and stays in Tampa.
Life long Canadian Avs fan never lose sight of the true goal and now we’re STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS what a year lets do this again next year
Congratulations, very well deserved triumph.
Congratulations to the Colorado Avalanche on winning the 2022 Stanley Cup!!!
I understand that this is the third Stanley Cup that the Avalanche have won.
I wanted Colorado to win in this series, as the Tampa Bay Lightning have had their fair share of Stanley Cup success.
Просто лучшие!!!! Красавчики
Согласен на все 100 Болел за них
As a habs fan, I am very proud of Lehkonen. Big upgrade from a 3rd liner to playing with MacKinnon. Congrats Avs!!
Thank you, Avs for defeating 2004 rival. Congratulations! Enjoy the victory. 🤝
as a WILD fan i'm so freaking happy for DARCY
