Hawks End Drought in 2010

[@johnmack3497]

Keep going all the way to today this is a great series

[@BrendanP]

Don't stop! Go right up to last season.

[@craigskiff6500]

Shannon, you made a HUGE mistake with Caps-Habs. The Capitals had a 3-1 series lead before Jaro Halak slammed the door and the Canadiens eliminated the Capitals in 7.

[@ronaldgarner1992]

I remember this series and made me distrust Presidents Trophy winners

[@CapsCircle16]

Yeah, I feel like he's screwing them up on purpose at this point lol

[@JHockeyFan]

Idk how he made that mistake. Maybe the history book was wrong again?

[@nollieflipcrook]

Craig Skiff 2 videos in a row he’s gotten the Caps wrong. Any Caps fan knows during that time every series they lost was in 7. That’s why Bruce Boudreau gets that reputation of being bad in game 7s

[@craigskiff6500]

@@nollieflipcrook Especially when a Game 7 was at home. He lost 4 straight Game 7s at home when he coached the Ducks.

[@primozvilfan2361]

Do it all the way. I want to hear about 2012/13 lockout, and Linden part you have mentioned!

[@mistmomo]

primož Vilfan yeah i approve there must be some secrets that were found later i suppose

[@drsalt328]

Don’t forget the record breaking Hawks that year and a classic postseason in 2014

[@primozvilfan2361]

Also 2012 and 2014 postseason records, 2015 dynasty...

[@ccamp26]

No do all of them

[@ccamp26]

Its history

[@ccamp26]

Vegas still has to become and team and winnipeg still has to go back to winnipeg

[@steelassault262]

You can keep the series going as far as I'm concerned. I was busy and didn't pay much attention for many years.

[@kunaalpurohit9475]

I still remember when you did the 1961 video when you said the hawks wouldn’t win again until 2010 when Patrick Kane and the boys came along.

[@CaretakerWanted]

Please keep going with this series!

[@84Fooman]

Please finish the series. Complete the madness!

[@logant9546]

As a Flyers fan I wasn't looking forwar to this. I was 16 during that series and I can still remember the heart sinking feeling of Kanes OT goal vividly. The stuff of nightmares

[@macrox2012]

When Boston lost to Philadelphia I smiled so much. Everything else just went away. I was in a state of pure happiness.

[@mcfleury]

Keep the series alive bro, these videos are fantastic

[@gabrielk7349]

No Shannon please, I've been waiting for 2011 for a month and a half!

[@danielsteigerwald26]

I am too

[@adamscott2801]

Don’t stop! Believe in yourself

[@nicholasmerriam7818]

Do all of them up to 2018! I'm a Caps fan waiting for the happy ending

[@guthriesturmey3863]

I hope you keep going. It times out perfectly with the start of the regular season

[@ryanogrady2616]

I would absolutely love to see this series go all the way. Im a fairly new hockey fan and outside of this last year I havent looked much into past hockey

[@mrstretch99]

Thank you for this! It have been very interesting to go through all NHL seasons.

[@berk1870]

As a pretty new hockey fan, this series has been an awesome crash course on what I've missed out on. It'd be great to see you finish it up, but if it feels too redundant no worries. Big fan!

[@jaredparker689]

Please finish the series! Love these!

[@markweber6100]

Would love to see this all the way up to the current season. I've watched all the way from your first history video and been loving every minute of it!

[@xehpa9178]

Flyers would've won if Gritty was in the lineup.

[@mcleanF1]

Agreed. Gritty would have put them over the top. Would have started a Flyers dynasty.

[@LHOH197]

Keep going these are fun to watch and you have stats in there that a lot of us may or have forgotten about I thoroughly enjoy watching them I've watched each one you've done

[@derekgreen7319]

No keep going !

[@LegionOfEclaires]

Philly had a great run. Squeeze into the playoffs via shootout against the Rangers and then after going down 3-0 games to Boston they managed to tie the series and in Game 7 they went down 3-0 only to come back and beat them 4-3. It's a shame they lost to the Blackhawks later on. What a run...

[@icewyre]

Yeah that shootout to enter the playoffs in the first place was crazy.

[@samuelfrick3475]

This was the year I really started to follow hockey. But, please continue the series whenever you can because I would like to refer back to the years I started following NHL hockey.

[@jeffhladik7586]

You forgot to mention that Marion Hossa played in his third consecutive Stanley Cup Finals with his third team.

[@dmoran1093]

Wait what team was the Stanley Cup champions in 2011....was it the expansion team in Vegas?

[@randomi38]

It was Claude Giroux if I remember correctly

[@ryans413]

Wait 2011 Vancouver win right

[@Saitek91]

Boston Bruins.

[@benscheffer9681]

Please do all of them. You're so one to finishing. I'd love to see you take it all the way

[@FalseCredential]

Philly losing in Game 6 was heartbreaking as a Flyers fan, that team felt so magical after the reverse sweep, it felt like it really was our year...

[@bobd9116]

I'll never forget this year as a long suffering hawks fan

[@222333aaaaaa]

That was such a run. Team was so loaded, and will never forget gm 5 of that Nashville series

[@adamogilvie8337]

Keep going please! Just found this series the other day. I think it's going to be a yearly watch through the summer

[@PhillyLeotardo41]

Either way, this series has been a lot of fun and very informative. I've learned quite a bit from watching your videos about the 70s, 80s and early 90s. Thanks for taking all this time to school us, it's been fun! I do hope you do 2011, if only because Boston is my other favorite team, and it's the last cup year that has a place in my heart.

[@RichardChips]

This was the season when I started to get back into hockey, and despite being a Red Wings fan I cheered for Chicago in the finals. Patrick Kane is too nice.

[@Qrag]

When my favorite player Danny B became a playoff legend

[@JHockeyFan]

The legend of Dustin Byfuglien is created this year.

[@ambrose788]

You've made it this far. Might as well finish the series

[@raginmadmangonecrazy]

I would like to see this series continue to the present day even though it becomes progressively less relevant. I think as this series is intended to have more of a long term appeal, including the next 8 seasons will have it be more relevant 5-10 years from now.

[@ozy75]

Loving the series but finally getting to watch again - fall is a busy time for me. I get your desire to stop and was happy first of all you retold the classic stories of the Original 6 through the WHA times (was a kid in the 80's so nice to relive those). Been a great ride kinda regretting its over or near over.

[@heavymetalthunder2326]

Yes keep this series going. it is very interesting to watch. Some real cool stuff and interesting news happened during this decade of hockey. NHL hockey had come back to the City of Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada. Your two favorite teams, Boston and Vancouver ended up meeting each other in the Stanley Cup Final. Vancouver rioted after losing game 7. The Los Angeles Kings won their first Stanley Cup. After 2012, is what I think is cool about this. Three teams were competing for the Stanley Cup, Chicago Blackhawks Los Angeles Kings, and Pittsburgh Penguins. The 2010 - 2017 seasons were like the updated versions of the 1995 - 2003 seasons. New Jersey Devils won the cup three times. Just like the Chicago Blackhawks did. The Colorado Avalanche had won it twice, as did the Los Angeles Kings. Lastly, the Detroit Red Wings won it back to back in 1997 and 1998. The Pittsburgh Penguins accomplished that in the last two seasons. Then there was a team that gave fans a break from the three team dynasty for a season. In this case that team would be the Dallas Stars. The 2011 version of that team would be yours truly, The Boston Bruins. Both of these decades of hockey must have been incredibly frustrating for hockey players to decide which team to play for, if they wanted to win a championship before they retired. Players had good odds of winning a Stanley Cup, they just had too pick the right team.

[@LedriTheThane]

You should do these for all seasons and continue adding on as the years go on and put them in the correct playlist. Run on sentence.

[@SaunaFinland]

This is my favourite series you've done. Do them all the way! It doesn't matter if we remember them or not. It's just great fun to take a look at a whole season smacked onto a board. It can give new perspectives even to the most recent season.

[@Kariakas]

You may as well go up to last season, this is a fun series and you're close to the end.

[@gardenhead904]

You can't just stop here. It's like getting down to 2 bottles of beer on the wall and quitting!

[@arakasius00]

Ya gotta finish it! I’m getting back into hockey again after being super casual lately thanks to your channel. So you have to finish it.

[@jeffistheman12]

Man Im Loving this Series, i owuld love to see the more recent ones too.

[@kevaninthe4135]

As a Bruins fan I've never felt lower when they lost the 3-0 series lead to the Flyers. That was pure brutality.

[@death2america282]

Life in the 413 SB 52 and that series are the reasons I eternally hate philly haha

[@jmarx3943]

I remember going into the next year's playoffs thinking "Anyone but Boston" lol. No way they would lose again after what my boys did to them.

[@XSTEWY]

Keep the series going please! Its making me learn a whole bunch.

[@snowpandagaming4207]

Please do all of them! Only a week more, you can do it! There are always nice little tidbits of information most of us have forgotten, like that bergfors in this one which we would have otherwise missed!

[@danielsteigerwald26]

You should go all the way to 2017-18. There will be people who will want to come back 10 years from now and learn the history of the leauge.

[@Obligatorial]

I love the series, since it's really my first look into the history of the NHL, but I can completely understand why you'd want to stop. Perhaps going up to the 2012-2013 lockout?

[@mitchread5156]

No point in covering the 2011 Cup Final. The teams played game 5, called it a series and everyone went home.

[@kakarroto007]

Shannon, you telling this story helps put in perspective, the way the league is now.

[@MrGuitarmanjustin]

Man I wish the Flyers would have won in 2010

[@piggybankvillan]

Should definitely go up to at least 2013. 5 years removed. Still interesting to see who led the league in scoring, or who won what trophy, because you forget about certain guys. I sure as hell forgot about Daniel Briere and how good he actually was.

[@heyo4935]

You should do all of them

[@skateordiedev]

I honestly don’t blame you for not watching that final. If I was in your position I would’ve done the exact same

[@gymrat2647]

Please keep on going for this series

[@nickvenuto9803]

They beat washington in 7

[@ianmarcusiu8703]

As many times as I’ve watched you speak of the 2011 cup final I’d love to hear it again lol

[@voltage7468]

Please do all

[@JHockeyFan]

I will never forget watching Game 6 and going nuts after Kane’s OT goal! And please do the rest of the years!!!

[@johnbednar939]

Hawks and jackets fan??

[@wendlacj]

Keep Going! Enjoying the series.

[@joelgraves9392]

Please don't stop with the history. 2019-2020 will be my first season paying attention to hockey.

[@LincolnBikers]

You better not stop here! You have a week left of videos to do in this series and the resular season starts in 8 days so it ends at just the right time!

[@maxd8410]

My first season as a hockey fan. I still remember watching Game 6 of the Finals, I was so confused lol

[@BlackAndThrash]

Definitely finish the series

[@Victor-pg1mn]

Is that the beginning of the dynasty?

[@drsalt328]

Lord Zanthor yes it is

[@Nickleblanc41]

They won against the Flyers so yes

[@wall-e4724]

Ayyyyy a Hawks Video. Great!!!

[@drsalt328]

Walter M yeeeeeeeee

[@Goldy02]

Keep going

[@trich-1041]

Keep going!! Especially for new fans and Vegas fans

[@jake748]

aw man you really missed out by not watching these finals. probably my favorite series ever.

[@ryguy6577]

At least go til the most recent lockout season. I need more history!! I’d say at least three more videos now and maybe wait on the last five years if you want

[@ackzien21]

Washington lost in 7 giving up a 3-1 series lead. Double check

[@Nickleblanc41]

Joshua Ackzien too bad it wasn’t in the 2nd round they could’ve had the hat trick

[@HorseshoeCrab1998]

Definitely don't stop the pens have two more cups left to talk about (.. Seriously though keep Goin)

[@cnash9744]

You should do up to last season!

[@philadelphia3790]

Sigh........

[@death2america282]

Philadelphia Sport fan I cried myself to sleep after you guys reverse swept us in the semis in 2010 lol

[@philadelphia3790]

Boston Boy I don’t blame you

[@FalseCredential]

Those finals were so heartbreaking

[@jmarx3943]

I know...the finals ripped my heart out too. I hate to say it but I wasn't shocked. Even still, it was a run for the ages. I'll never forget certain things about that run. Kovalchuk saying they'd win because they had brodeur and we had boosh. The come back in the semis, especially game 7. Shutting out Montreal in 3 of the 5 games. Taking both home games of the finals in games 3 and 4, including girouxs ot winner. We didn't win, but I was and still am proud of that team.

[@SebastianVideoandToyShow]

We need more!!! We need a history refresher!!

[@wesleyhunt7599]

Montreal beat Washington in seven. I know that because I watched every game of the series!

[@nicholas2583]

Those damn Sharks... The Wings had VAN and CHI's number still. 2010 and 2011 were Lidstrom's last chances at the cup.

[@icewyre]

I'd love for it to go all the way through

[@weatheredtome]

I love hearing the occasional meow every now and then. I miss their cameows!

[@c71score]

Keep up the series. Look at this way, the next 4 days you get to cover the Penguins choking. The next 4 seasons were almost as painful as the rebuild years. I can take being a dumpster fire. I can take losing to an equal or better team, like last season or 2015. Blowing 3-1 leads and losing to 8 seeds, hell no. Yes, I'm greedy. But, I'm a Bengals and Reds fan, this is all I got.

[@samson2848]

This year was an emotional roller coaster start to finish for me haha, I have so many mixed feelings about this video. Shannon: "Boston gets up 3 games to nothing against Philly" Me: * Goofy ear to ear grin * Shannon: "Chicago wins game six 4 to 3" Me: * Sobs softly *

[@Detector1977]

Well Shannon, so you didn't want to even watch the Flyers- Blackhawks series, but said the Pens-Wings series was one of the best you've ever WATCHED tells me a few things....

[@rivetingpotato4865]

Why stop? Keep going. Do 2020 season, 2030. Those were some interesting years what with the return of the Soviet Union and the establishment of the moon team.

[@MultiKalmer]

How about a top list of your favourite NHL seasons?

[@DG360MaN]

keep going there might be newer fans just getting into the sport that don't know anything g about 2011 and beyond

[@Nickleblanc41]

Under the current playoffs format and divisions: SJ vs STL ARI vs VAN CHI vs LA NSH vs COL WSH vs BOS NJ vs PIT DET vs PHI BUF vs OTT

[@chrisscorpio5651]

Waiting for 2018 and the CAPS!!

[@nintendofan50]

Just keep going. You know you’re gonna do them all anyhow... just enjoy and crack open a cold one.

[@Nikkerman]

I remember that was the first year I reall really really got into hockey and it was amazing in the regular season because my 3 favourite teams were the caps, devils, and sharks which all had top seeds. Then I just felt embarassed and went back to being a football fan after how embarassing it was to have both the devils and caps fall like that, and the sharks being swept.

[@nathanharding120]

KEEP IT GOING

[@gandhi_1867]

2010 was the year I really got into hockey

[@ModanoTheBest]

Go at least through the last lockout and realignment, but I'd prefer for you to go all the way through last year. That would take us right in to opening night!

[@SverigeiSverige]

Daniel Briere sets a record for most points in finals while losing. 6-3-9-12

[@222333aaaaaa]

Yep. That series was insanely high scoring. Felt like every game was like 7-5.

[@GreenHornet553]

And with that quick turnaround of fortunes, the Blackhawks dynasty of the 2010s begins. I know they aren't a dynasty in the traditional sense of the word, but all things considered the 2010s era Blackhawks should count as this era's dynasty. Very few teams have been able to retain as many players from their initial cup win and won as many cups in a short period of time like the Blackhawks did, especially in the hard salary cap era. The only other team to come close, and still have a chance to top the Blackhawks as far as the dynasty argument, is the Penguins if they win this year and go 3 for 4 and that looks like a long shot given how they looked in the playoffs last year. So, while they may not be liked by certain fan bases, what the Blackhawks did can loosely be compared to what the Patriots accomplished in the NFL in the early 2000s, and that's becoming the first dynasty in a salary cap era of the game. And that is no easy task, especially when the cap in the NHL is a lot stricter than the NFL. Edit: Also, please keep going Shannon, at least until the reorganizing of the divisions. These videos are still fun to watch even if they are recent history.

[@felixlepine9943]

You should continue the series. Even if it's recent its interesting

[@slavman68]

I still can't believe we paid Huet 6.5 mill to be the back up in that playoff race

[@trich-1041]

Caps and habs went 7 games that year !
