Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

Homepage, Schedule & Results, League Save File

I'd like to say that the Kings played a tough, gritty road game to try to force a deciding game 7 with (ideally) a multi-shot overtime... but no, not really. TB dominated this game start to finish and the lone goal by TayTay early in the 3rd didn't swing the needle.

Congrats to TB's Geoff Smith for his first Cup win in just 3 years, congrats & condolences to Hugo for coming close without Zadina, and better luck next season for the rest of us.

Playoff leaders:

Goals: 13 - Kirill Kabanov - TB
Assists: 18 - Frederik Gauthier - LA
Points: 29 - Frederik Gauthier - LA
+/-: +19 - Frederik Gauthier - LA
PIM, fights, fights won: too many - Brady Tkachuk - SJ (it wasn't even close)
sv%: 89.3% - Simeon Varlamov - FLA (min. 7 games)
GAA: 2.95 - Carey Price - TB (plus the only stat that matters, 16-5-4)

I'd say Gauthier would get top votes if there weren't a winner bias, Kessel otherwise. Gildon with 21 pts in 24 games on D's not bad, albeit with a -1 (funny enough, many of the top OFD had poor +/-).

Well now that's a decent birthday-ish present, grats old man

Congratulations!
Nice series for both teams.

Congrats Geoff!!!
Asti Hugo t’as pas de luck man

Congrats Kevin get shitfaced and send us pics with the cup!!

Geoff (and Kevin as family) HUGE CONGRATS. Well earned you iced a great team and weathered the injuries all regular season. 18million over the cap - WELL DESERVED AND THREE CHEERS

Never, in, doubt. Congrats to Geoff and the Bolty boys.

Thanks all, and good series to every one of my opponents, none of you made it easy.

This does make a decent belated birthday present (I turned 40 on Sunday).

I'll definitely have a celebratory drink out of some sort of cup tonight, possibly one of my son's (one of his middle names is Stanley), though I don't usually get shit-faced on a Tuesday.

Congrats to Geoff and the Bolts. Nice to see your team break through. Finally, a Cup for Carey Price.

Congrats to the Bolts! LA for their nice run and - Florida for their run to the CF here and the Finals in RL. Really erks me Eichel gets a cup before CMD.

I think its great. Guy tries his ass off through injuries and Buffalo can't advance. Won't let him get a surgery he wants (i get the CBA) so he forces out and its yet ANOTHER Vegas big shot. The best part is NYR coulda had him but wouldn't part with a guy like Kakko. Good thing the GM of the NYR here in EHEC isn't afraid to pull off a big move for Eichel No cup though...

draft doesn't start like, sometime in the next two weeks, right?

Last year's draft started mid-August. Same with the year before. So maybe around then?

Great cup win. Big congrats to TBL for another hard fought series!
