Lightning Storm Ice To Celebrate Winning The 2021 Stanley Cup As Time Expires In Game 5 vs. Montreal

Watch as the Tampa Bay Lightning celebrate winning the Stanley Cup in front of their fans.

[@notdylancolley]

Alright everybody. So they didn't win. I'll admit it that we lost. I'm not going to make any excuses. I'm just going to say Congratulations to Tampa for winning consecutive cups. You guys earned every part of it. Vasi played every second, of every minute, of ever period, of every game. He stood tall and strong over his squad from start to finish. You have one of the greatest coaches in league history, and he deserved every part of it as well. You guys played us hard, and I'll say it was still a fun series to watch. Thanks for being Gentlemen about it though! I'm not mad. I'm very proud of how we outperformed all the odds against us these playoffs. We'll all be back next year, and you can be sure the Habs'll come back stronger. I wish you all the best of luck heading into the expansion draft. For any fellow Habs fans out there, think of it this way, we only lost to the Stanley Cup champions. And to top it all off, we also beat Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, William Nylander, John Tavares, Morgan Rielly, Blake Wheeler, Mark Schieffele, Kyle Conner, Nick Ehlers, Josh Morissey, Connor Hellebuych, Max Pacioretty, Mark Stone, Johny Marchessault, William Karlsson, Alex Pitrangelo, Shea Theodore, Marc Andre Fluery, an Robin Lehner. This team battled hard, and in the end they didn't get silenced.

To all the sore loser Habs fans who want to complain about the cap, your team was not robbed of a Cup. The reality is your team was a sub .500 team this year (24 wins in a 56-game season, so closer to .420). They should not have been in the playoffs to begin with, and rode a hot goaltender to the finals. They went up against a better team and lost.
