I was peeing my pants until Beagle pulled that move sprinting the length of the rink to intercept our third straight icing of the puck and stall the action in Vegas' d-zone. That's when I jumped out of my seat laughing knowing it's a done deal tonight!!!! Because of that single play, I was heart broken when the Caps had to let Beagle go.

[@noonecfcf]

As a native of Reston, Virginia, who has lived in Vegas for 18 of my 20 years, this was the most magical season of sports I have ever been blessed to witness. Watching this even now, none of this feels real. MY team, my Capitals, finally, FINALLY, getting it done. A team from my home even existing, much less playing for the greatest trophy in sports. And the two of them playing against each other. If this was a movie it would be completely stupid and non-believable. And yet.... it still makes me cry every single time. What a wonderful moment to be alive. Being exhausted but faithful as a Caps fan and finding catharsis as a Knights fan, seeing a game live for the first time, earlier in the evening on October 1st (I swear to god I’m not lying to you), then witnessing the history the Knights made in and out of the Fortress, and quietly watching my Caps do what they’ve always done, and slip behind two games to Columbus, and literally (sadly) saying the words “well, that’s it for us..” while the Knights did the unbelievable, and then, Kuzy scoring in overtime to FINALLY beat the goddamn Penguins, and suddenly everything became a dream. The watch parties in 80+ degree weather watching my home team do things even the Caps had never done in my lifetime (until a few days later anyway), I suddenly believed. And then, the joke we had made all season (“ha ha, whAt iF tHE kNiGHts pLayed tHe cAPs In tHe fInAL?!”) became a reality. Five games later, everything I had ever dreamed of became true. Not a moment in there that I’ll ever forget. Most of all, I won’t forget embracing my mother in front of the TV, as Doc said the slightly underwhelming words “the capital of the country is the capital of the hockey playoffs!!” Absolutely surreal. Sorry for this long and pointless story, but it still just doesn’t seem real. It’s been the most amazing whirlwind of a sports season, school year, or calendar year, that I can personally remember. And I sure as hell will never forget it. And I hope there’s a few of you reading this who can relate... and maybe you’ll see this a few years from now and relive all of it again with me. Rock The Red and Go Knights Go!!!! Always.

[@phillip9798]

I think this was the most tense Cup Clincher I've ever watched! The raw emotion emanating from Ovi and his Capitals, and the pure excitement coming from Vegas, who had a chance to win it all in their very first year! Just when it couldn't get anymore tense, the arena clock went kaput. The entire hockey world held their breath. Will controversy prevail and Vegas ties and wins the game, ultimately prolonging the series, or will years of hardship and upsets at last come to an end for Ovechkin and the Capitals fanbase? The rest is history, with one of the best cup hoistings I've ever seen.

[@capsdude4838]

[@zachjv7124]

Do you think the broken scoreboard was to try to give the knights a little extra time?

[@Allfath3r]

No, it was a mistake made by the clock operator in the arena. Someone on Reddit timed it themselves and apparently the time they set it to after they fixed the clock was correct.

[@DAK4Blizzard]

To me, there was about 1.6 seconds too much on the clock. I ran a countdown clock showing tenths of a second. I started it at 1m50s because when the icing occurred the clock had just hit 1m49s, implying around 1m49.8s remaining. I started the countdown as soon as the puck hit the ice at 2:04 of the video. So at the start, I was being generous by about a quarter second. But that's not a big deal, as I assume the clock operator can't perfectly sync the clock with the whistles and with the drop of the puck. What's a bigger deal is that when the Caps are called for icing at 3:27 of the video, I stopped my countdown with 27 seconds flat left. Normally I wouldn't care so much, as the clock problems did enable the Caps an artificial break following the icing. What's a big deal to me is, when the Caps ice the puck in the dying seconds, the whistle is blown with, almost incredibly, 1.6 seconds left on the clock. (The clock operator, though understandably delayed in halting the clock, still shouldn't have allowed a full second to come off the clock to bring it down to only 0.6 seconds.) In other words, the game should've been over when the Caps iced it. Oh well.

[@FreshTillDeath56]

Nah. The clock was close enough, and it was a good game. Must have been an honest mistake on the operator's part.

I'm an Isles fan, but love seeing Ovechkin get a cup. Not only have the Caps been playoff perennials for several years, but they've had more than their fair share of upsets/heartbreaking losses. And Ovechkin could be one of those 'untouchable' elite players who always cry for calls to go their way and etc, but he isn't. He skates like a bull, has a sick shot, great hands, plays like an animal, isn't afraid to hit or be hit or even drop the gloves. Gotta love his game. Hard earned cup for the Caps.

It was cruel. I was crying. Having The Capitals lose in OT would have been the most Capitals thing ever. I was watching with a Red Sox fan friend, he was talking me down as my fear and anxiety were at absurd levels. I even told my buddy, "You have no idea how this feels." My buddy responded, "Yes I do. 2004." Seeing Ovechkin let out that cathartic yell is exactly how I felt-FINALLY!! The only better moment in my life was when I held my newborn niece.
