[FULL] Colorado Avalanche 2022 Stanley Cup Finals Trophy Ceremony | NHL on ESPN

[@lynn-marieflechner5406]

Not gonna lie, when Gabe lifted that cup I cried a little. I’ve watched Landeskog since he was in Kitchener, and wanted this for him so bad. Good job boys, way to bring it home.

[@TheAbielBeluts]

I cried watching '01 and '96 (and Forsberg highlights in general ❤️❤️❤️) during my "pregame warm up." Lowkey still haven't slept and don't know when I will. GO AVS!!!!! Be safe y'all the johnnies are out like a mf in downtown Denver. Don't crash out before the parade. 😂😂😂 Let's pray Russel and Nikola the God can replicate this feat for my...no, OUR city!!!! LFG

What a year for Makar. Cup, Conn Smythe, and the Norris. At only 23 years old.

[@dooderscoot2900]

And he won the H.Baker in college.....first player to win all four. I think he'll go down as the best defensemen of all time when he hangs it up....

When I was a young boy, I sat in michnichols' arena for game 4 of the 95-96 season, as a young man of 14 I watched Joe pass the cup to Ray in a series where the Avs came back to win game 7. This year, I watched these men fight for every ounce of that cup. I have followed this team through thick and thin, and have since day one. Thank you Super Joe, for bringing this team together, thank you Gabriel, for your devotion to the game WE love, and your commitment to this franchise. Nathan Mackinnon, thank you for your passion and dedication. Cale Makar, you are a beast, and are redefining what a Defenseman can do. Let's go Avs

[@Marshall_playz15]

Hats off to all the Tampa Bay Lightning fans for not booing when the ceremony was going on. While both Trophies being handed out I saw allot of them Clapping and cheering .That is Class act making Hockey a much better sport than it is. Also To the players especially Steve Stamkos who was showing his pride for the game and congratulating Avalanche even tho he just lost .He is a great captain for good reason. Players who look for reasons and excuses why they lose are sore sports. And He is far from that Tampa is lucky to have him. And now to see my team being the only team to win all of there Championship games. And a hand full of other records makes me so grateful to be a Colorado Avalanche Fan.

For everything in the world-the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life-comes not from the Father but from the world." Mark 8:34-37 "Then he (Jesus Christ) called the crowd to Him along with His disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be My disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow Me.
