Hawks Win Another in 2015, Oilers Draft McDavid, Dubnyk Hits His Stride with Wild

[@crookeymonster]

finishing bottom of your division with 90pts is wild

[@SverigeiSverige]

But Wild had 100 points, also wild how many 100 points teams... 😉

[@cnash9744]

Crazy to see the 2015 scoring leaders compared to the last 5 years

[@SverigeiSverige]

87 points the lowest Art Ross winner since the 60s.

[@Skroskznik]

That is so incredible seeing how many people in the league we know now (2024) came from 2015 draft. I am stunned.

[@Wlightning25]

I was in the United Center when the Hawks won the cup. Good times.

[@timbartschwolfman]

A great summer

[@benstark4578]

I remember it pouring that night and having friends over, so jealous that one of my friends couldn’t come over cuz he was at the game

[@jaytee4374]

That 2015 run by Chicago was so extremely impressive, that series against Anaheim was as good a series as a hockey fan could hope for, it was extremely difficult

[@BoyNamedSue4]

Oh to go back to this era. Where the ducks making the playoffs was just an expectation and not a crazy dream.

[@ReallyBigDuck]

Lightning lost this stanley cup because they beat the rangers and not the Islanders. 2004, 2020, and 2021 they beat the islanders on their way to the cup. in 2015 and 2022 they beat the Rangers on their way to losing in the final.

[@TheChronicFiend]

They lost cuz the hawks were superior!

[@ReallyBigDuck]

@@TheChronicFiend just a joke my friend, the hawks were obviously the better team in that series, just the same as the Avs were in 2022

[@AntonyLP]

@@ReallyBigDuck those years Tampa had injury problems

[@Nickleblanc41]

They beat the Islanders in 2016 and didn’t win the cup losing in the conference final to Pittsburgh

[@squiggleface3631]

My big memory of the Canucks was their early 1st round exit against the Flames. Johnny Gaudreau in his rookie year was so dangerous with Sean Monahan. Calgary's Micheal Ferland was knocking Kevin Bieksa all over the ice. Canucks main core was almost mid 30s and most other main players were 28 or over. It was the start of a loooong run of losing for the Canucks - and it slowly became difficult having a positive outlook for our club. The Canucks' window of winning & possibly contending for a Stanley Cup officially closed with a painful "slam".

[@Ebbs-ez2fs]

“Darren Keefe” was always my favorite Hawk 😂jkjk ik you knew its Duncan, Shannon jus joking 😂

[@SverigeiSverige]

Keith

[@Ebbs-ez2fs]

@@SverigeiSverige bro, didn’t get the joke. In the video Shannon accidentally refers to Duncan Keith as “Darren Keith” i decided to turn him into his own player “Darren Keefe” as a joke to poke fun at Shan’s mess up 🤦‍♂️

Shows how stacked the West was at the time when a 95 pt LA Kings team misses the playoffs

[@lankancheetah]

The year of the Hamburglar!

[@PenguinNote67]

You forgot to mention that Martin Brodeur signed with the Blues that season

[@RRaquello]

John Tavares was winning the Art Ross trophy until Jamie Benn got an assist on a Dallas goal with about 10 seconds left in the last game of the season. Tavares & Benn were tied in points at 86 but JT had the tie breaker with more goals, but that assist gave Benn 87 points. The Islander game was already over by that time because Dallas is one hour behind NY time. Another yuck-yuck at the expense of JT & the Islanders.

[@zZach___]

That WCF is still easily the Greatest Playoff Series in the entire 2000s. Suck we ended up choking the 3-2 lead but it was electric non the less.

[@jasonpaul4308]

that hawks ducks series was so intense! heartbreaking as a ducks fan....but i take some solace in hearing Toews say that was the hardest series he's ever played in haha

[@rickjubenville2119]

Good video Shannon 👍🏻 Didn’t realize how many notables in this draft class will play for the Canucks this coming season. Pick #14 DeBrusk, #23 Boeser, #25 Juulsen, #46 Sprong.

[@mgourley1234]

Love the history videos.

[@dvon1097]

As a bruins fan i didnt need to be reminded about the 2015 draft... 😂 😭

[@jean-philippedoyon9904]

The year Price won the Hart,Vezina and Ted Lindsay...peak Price even after his injuries from Kreider ! And the team in front of him was pretty meh. Very impressive ! Imagine if he had a first line like the Suzuki line at the time...what a waste.

[@seanragsdale5636]

The Cup ran that got me back into following the NHL

[@father042]

Price's historic year should have been in the title

[@amazingkook143]

pretty sure NYR beat WSH in the 2nd round that year, 3-1 comeback. Game 7 OT winner

[@SverigeiSverige]

Yeah, Pit didn't lose two series in a row. 😃

[@TheShadowflare1]

This year was one of the most frustrating play-offs as a blues fan. We had an amazing season, and then get utterly stomped on by MN in the first round.

[@CorridoC]

Ken holland really messed that draft up didn’t he

[@alexzeller8774]

Damn Central Division was.. GOOD

[@J_Aaron_L]

While dry cuts are quicker, you can still only get down to maybe a 7-8 minute cut. At that point you might as well put a piss sprinkle down anyway. Nice gesture but a good call to move away from the OT cut.

[@habinations]

this season i paid attention.

[@lankancheetah]

I just realized Chicago won all their cups in 6 games.

[@timbartschwolfman]

I was that Close 👌 to having My Blackhawks vs My Rangers in the Finals But Damn Lightning

[@RIPJimmyA7X]

That Hawks team wasnt the most talented team and certainly not the deepest but they exemplified "never doubt the heart of a champion", They just refused to lose. That run by the Crow was amazing and Keith almost singlehandedly carrying a super shallow D core

[@Penguinzero1]

[@magslowe30]

I know people point at the Hawks for the cap circumventing but I think the big difference between that and recent stuff with Tampa and Vegas is we saw the Kane injury during a game. Comapre that to Kucherov being announced as out all season or Stone being announced as unavailable without some type of evidence to viewers. Cap circumvention is still circumvention but to me I dont place the Kane injury in the same bucket as Kucherov or Stone

[@TheHockeyGuy]

You wanted to see Stone's ruptured spleen?

[@RRaquello]

It ain't cap circumvention if it's within the rules. I'm not a Tampa, Chicago or Vegas fan but I wish people would quit whining about this. It's a loser's lament.

[@serfindukdb1776]

not only that, but the Hawks only made the playoffs by 4 points. if Kane was able, they needed him to assure themselves a playoff position. but haters gonna hate in hindsight...

[@PooseUnpoos3]

God King Carey Price season

[@slamdunkgator915]

One thing that people conveniently forget about that Hawks team was the abuse of LTIR. They abused the fact that they still had cap space because Kane was on LTIR and their opponent in the SCF was one of few teams that looked to get rid of that loophole before the season started.

[@bobjohnson5062]

And so have many other teams enroute to a Stanley Cup.

[@prescottgillies7430]

Chicago Blackhawks Last Cup of there 2010s Dynasty too What 5 Years in Chicago and this is when my Fandom of the Oilers my second favorite Team was born the next year 2015-16

[@knightradiant4990]

So you only started liking them after they got a generational talent? Okay

[@Ebbs-ez2fs]

Hawks fan here, totally agree with you just be prepared for the haters to come and say it’s not a dynasty😂 Despite in the modern NHL it’s significantly more difficult to good rosters together & create dynasty’s. - original 6 expansion (30+ teams) - salary cap added in 2004. - Blackhawks were the first franchise to get 3 cups with the same core, in the cap era - They were the first & the fastest team to 3 cups, in the modern / salary cap era The Chicago Blackhawks, with their three Stanley Cups won in six seasons from 2010 to 2015, rank as follows in terms of the speed of winning three championships in NHL history: 1. New York Islanders: 4 Cups in 6 years (1980-1983)(21 teams in league)(No cap) 2. Montreal Canadiens: 3 Cups in 5 years (1976-1980)(18 team league)(No Cap) 3. Chicago Blackhawks: 3 Cups in 6 years (2010-2015) (30) (Salary Cap) 4. Pittsburgh Penguins: 3 Cups in 8 years (2009-2017) (30)(Salary Cap) - Detroit Red Wings: 3 Cups in 6 years (1997, 1998, 2002)(21 teams)(no cap) - Edmonton Oilers: 3 Cups in 5 years (1984, 1985, 1987)(21 teams)(no cap) In essence, the Blackhawks are neck & neck with the Penguins for the fastest Dynasty’s of All-time & the FIRST to win three Cups in the modern era, as we know it. Yet we act as if the original dynasty’s are somehow worth more than “Modern-day Dynasty’s” its crazy. And yet there only 2 teams on that list that were able to do it with a salary cap and 30+ teams. 👏

Shannon on Chris Osgood: "Hall of Famer! Hall of Famer! Hall of Famer!" Shannon on Corey Crawford: "(crickets)" Crawford was a better goalie than Osgood... & yes, Osgood should be in the HOF. Crawford was basically the 2nd best goalie in his playing era, only behind Lundqvist. & before the "he played for an all-star team" argument, his advanced stats were only behind Lundqvist as well. if Osgood is in the HOF, Crawford is EASILY a HOF'er too... hell, Tom fucking Barrasso is a HOF'er, & he (mostly) fucking sucked, lol
