Death From Above Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Canada's team was the Boston Bruins while the Leafs were still in, but they're out now.
Jiji Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 In what way were Boston ever Canada's team? The leafs are the most popular team in the country several times over and are divisional rivals. Vancouver hates them and Montreal fans aren't going to get behind Bahstun either. So that leaves us with Albertans. Hmmm.
Death From Above Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 Man this forum's sense of humour has gone completely to shit so far in 2018. Never go Full Robert, my friend.
Jiji Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 I'm still not over 2011, man. And a bunch of my friends are Leafs fans so their pain is still fresh. I really do fucking hate that team.
RIPPA Posted May 8, 2018 Author Posted May 8, 2018 Sigh... I am gonna miss the DC never making the conference finals streak
Niners Fan in CT Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 Well it was a good run. Alexander finally gets past the Penguins. He will undoubtedly choke this opportunity away but for now he and the Caps will play on.

RIPPA Posted May 8, 2018 Author Posted May 8, 2018 I can't even to be to describe to someone not from this area how breathlessly over the top the celebration is for just making a conference finals is. I understand WHY it's happening but it is still amusing as fuck.
Death From Above Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 How Pekka Rinne can wear that suit of medieval breastplate that is like 4 sizes too big and still let in that second goal is beyond me. I have to give their coach credit for saying "no thanks" to more of that.
Death From Above Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Welcome to the bizarre fever dream where either Winnipeg or Vegas will challenge for the Stanley Cup. Try explaining that one to Yourself From Five Years Ago. 2
Dewar Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 It was probably for the best that I had my bowling league championship tonight, so I was not completely shitting bricks during the hockey game. Jets win, my bowling team wins, and that means $350 in prize money for this guy. Even Ice Cube thinks I had a good day. 3
Jiji Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Congrats Dewar and elizium. That's a long fucking wait to get this far, especially after having to be Eddie Lack & Manitoba Moose fans for so long. I hope the Jets go all the way. 1
elizium Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 In a result that has surprised literally no one, True North decided to issue free tickets to the street parties to prevent them from being overrun, all 25000 were quickly snapped up and are now showing up online at over $100 a piece. Even though it was supposed to be limited to 8 per person, some people have over 100 they're trying to sell. 1

Have they thought about opening up the football stadium and showing the game on the jumbotron?
Death From Above Posted May 13, 2018 Posted May 13, 2018 Well both conference finals game 1 sure escalated quickly.
sabremike Posted May 13, 2018 Posted May 13, 2018 Was that the biggest game in Winnipeg since the 1979 WHA Final? Also does the team/city have possession of the Avco World Cup trophy or did Arizona take it with them when they left town?

There's a couple versions, one in the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame (that one was always on display at the old arena when the Jets 1.0 were still here) and one in the Hockey Hall of Fame as well, I believe. 1
hammerva Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 Is it possible for game 3 and 4 to be played in Tampa? I mean no reason to stop this shocking 2-0 series lead by the Caps by playing at home. Tampa looked so good against Boston and they look so horrible in games 1 and 2.
