Useless fact I figured out: with Stamkos, Bogosian, and Schenn winning the Cup last night, the 2008 Draft is the first NHL draft where the entire top 5 picks are Stanley Cup champs. Another useless fact: with Coburn winning the Cup, another player from “THE BEST DRAFT CLASS EVER” won the Cup.

There were 24 teams in this playoffs, playing a compressed playoff schedule with more back to backs in the history of playoff hockey. Most of the time teams only had 1 day of rest in between games. The playoffs this year were the hardest to play and the hardest to win. The Tampa Bay Lightning are champions of champions.

[@thegamemole3941]

Not to mention the teams coming into this were mostly all healed up and ready to go, meaning at the beginning of it most teams didn’t have any key injuries holding them back once the tourney started. Lightning were without their captain for the entire tourney and still took it home.

Feeling pretty happy right now as a family we cheer for the Bolts so it was awesome to finally see them get the cup, you’re so right, it does feel like the best team doesn’t usually win but this year it feels different The team that people thought deserved to win, won. It was awesome watching each guy lift the cup, we seem to love every single player on this team and the guys that were picked up brought us from a physically gifted team, to a mentally tough group of guys all committed to a single goal. Every guy we picked up was exactly what we needed to take us to that next level of competing. So happy for all of them!

The one bright spot I take from this as a Stars fan is the great play from the young players on this team throughout the playoffs.

[@SSobotkaJr]

Matt, look at it this way. As a Tampa Fan, most of the past history of our sports teams -- Buccaneers mostly, but the Lightning too -- has been an embarrassment of loss-over-win tragedy. It took us YEARS to finally get into contention for our respective championships, which makes it all the more sweeter when we do win (Bucs in 2003, now Bolts in 2004 and 2020). Dallas has nothing to be ashamed of! You guys played with guts and determination, in spite of injuries! Plus, you guys have hoisted Lord Stanley's hardware before -- 1999, if I recall right? -- so you can relish that victory with a good conscience. The one key thing I can say here is DO NOT LOSE HEART! Both fans and the team! You can get back here, IF the team has the support, and has the will to do so. Always support your team, in every win and loss, no matter the stakes or consequences. You can become champs again!

I grew up in Tampa, playing in the original lightning practice facility, attending games with my family... And I’ve witnessed us with the Cup once before, and lose it in the finals. So this was beautiful to watch. They really punched it out in game 6. Super proud of the team, especially given the circumstances. Don’t know how anyone would call this “easier”. If anything, it’s MORE difficult to win a cup under these circumstances. The pandemic has inflicted immense psychological pain on the world, and you can’t perform your best when your brain is fatigued. Congrats again to our Bolts, and thank you for the great videos!

[@SSobotkaJr]

My dad, who was an avid Buccaneers fan (and got me to be one too), was a HUGER supporter of the Lightning when the franchise first came to Tampa. Those first years in the 90's were rough and sadly, Pop died in 1994 without even seeing them get better by the early 2000's. When the Lightning got to the finals in 2004 -- after the Bucs won the Lombardi in 2003 -- I was there for every, single, game of those Finals; watching on TV, cheering them on every shift, and exulting with each win as they progressed to a Game 7. Getting to witness that win for Lord Stanley's Cup in 2004? That was a privilege and an honor that I got to see it for my Dad's sake. In the years that followed, the Bolts had their ups and downs, but like Pop told me once before, "You support your team in the bad years, and in the good. You show them why they exist, because YOU are there for them. They are YOUR team!". Well, my team has been to the top of the mountain for the 3rd time, and they are champions once more! Pop would be so proud, as I am of our Tampa Bay Lightning. Good Job, Boys.

Too many teams in many sports blow a roster up way too soon. You win that many games...well keep the core and add some pieces. It's not easy to keep being cup contenders.

Literally all of the last 5 cup winners have proven why you keep together a core who is consistently great. People called for the Pens to blow it up before they won back to back. People called for the Caps to blow it up after failing every year then they won. People called for the Blues to blow it up after being consistently great but not getting over the hump and they win the cup. People called for the Lightning to blow it up after not being able to get over the hump and having the biggest chokejob ever then they win the cup. I always thought it was extremely clear that you run it back with this core.

Zach bogosian used to live in my neighbourhood when he played for the Peterborough petes. Borded at my best friends house. Got to play road hockey with him. He always waved when he drove by and I was outside playing hockey. One time my friend joked that he should come outside and beat up the neighbourhood bully. So happy for the guy!

Leo is so cute! It does make me sad that you're setting him up for a life of pain and disappointment by raising him to rooting for the Leafs though
