Future champs might not want to wait another year.

I have heard a few snippets here and there over the years, but I don't listen much. Honestly, its not like I am saying anything earth shattering.

No, it’s a good comparison

They look like babies when they score and get scored on. In three appearances, they’ve never been challenged like this. It’s nice to watch.

Will Joe Sakic start getting the same credit Yzerman has lived off the passed 5 years as a GM?

Why isn't Bettman awarding the Cup?

I’m gonna give you guys something else to female dog about. Tampa and Colorado both have 3 cups in their franchise. One more than us. They’ve only been around since the early 90’s.

Curious if we will again be told how this team needs to retool, and not rebuild.

Don’t want to be like Colorado after all.

How are we going to get top picks like Mackinon, landeskog, makar, and Rantenan with an aggressive retool

Don't forget the Flyers basically gifted them their first Stanley Cup.

Forsberg, Roy, Keane, Ricci, Simon, Lemieux, and Krupp were all part of the Lindros trade fallout.

Considering how Roy won the Smythe in 2001 as well, you could probably argue the Flyers were pretty much responsible for their second SC too

Yes! If we just continue to peel the onion, we can find more layers as to why they’ve won, we’re nowhere close and what we gave them to win.

We did draft Patrick Maroon and gave him away as soon as we could as if he had no shot at the big league.

On another note, it was great to see NP win the Conn Smythe! And even better to watch him hoist the Cup! Oh wait, my mistake. That was some dude named Cale Makar.

On yet another note, I found it interesting that to a man the Avs all said that they needed to become harder to play against to achieve their ultimate goal. Wow, the Flyboys have a loooong way to go. Let's see......the don't have the speed or talent, and they may be the easiest team in the league to play against(At least the past couple of seasons). Long road ahead boys.

If anyone dares to think that Makar would make the Flyers a contender I have a hard time with that.

One player does not change the fortunes of a franchise. It remains a team game, and it takes more than one year to properly build a core.

Colorado without MacK, Rantaten, Byram or Landeskog is a different animal. All played parts to ensure the Avs won the cup.

The Flyers will try to sell us on an idea that they will just outwork opponents to winning something.

No way in hell.
