Too bad Habs fans don’t show respect to other teams 😑. Atleast with all of my experiences with Habs fans. I’m a Vegas fan , lived in Vegas 20 years, have been a fan of Vegas since before they even played their first game, and love my team. Can’t tell you how many Habs fans have tried to tell me Vegas fans aren’t “real” hockey fans or how Vegas somehow cheated their way to being good somehow . Shits depressing . I respect Montreal for what they did this year and really respect their players . I have huge respect for Price he’s an awesome goalie. Does feel kind of good to know the Habs fans that constantly disrespect us Vegas fans got to experience a loss though 🤷🏻‍♂️

Owner Donates huge money to charity. Installs top people, sets up an incredible farm team & draft structure. Players like Stamkos, Kuch, Point, Heds & Vassy & depth players up/down roster. They’re just freakishly over-talented. Period. **Montreal played their hearts out. That team wins the cup if they meet anyone except TB. It’s really that simple. No Shame in their game.

There's a few points i wanna make the Lightning werent really 18m over the cap Cap Friendly adds the salary of every player on the roster and only subtracts players on LTIR. A little over 8m of the 98m you see on CF are AHL call ups who never played a game in the regular season or in the playoffs but still counted towards the salary cap on CF. 8.5m is the actual number over the cap the Lightning used only in the playoffs and that's Kuch's salary. You're also forgetting Stamkos was on LTIR for 18 games and Tampa was the only team in double digits of LTIR used in the regular season at 17.35m the next closest was around 8m. JBB did his job as GM to give them the best chance at winning a second cup. I should also remind you Tampa did this after losing 3 D men and a 4th line grinder in the past offseason being Shattenkirk, Bogosian, Coburn, and Cedric Paquette. Like somebody else mentioned The Lightning were the only team who voted for closing the loophole back after the 2015 Blackhawks Tampa cup finals where the Blackhawks used the exact same loophole to win. The amount of people who have the applies to thee but not to me mindset is fucking embarrassing not only as a Lightning fan but as a Hockey fan because nobody ever talks about throwing an Asterisk next to Chicago's 2015 cup but everyone and their mom is willing to do so when Tampa does.

Lots of positive things to look forward to for the next couple of years. The Habs had a rough season this year, but they had lots of injuries, a terrible schedule and Cole Caufield wasn't in the line-up. At first, I was certain that they wouldn't make the playoffs next year, but with Caufield and Suzuki playing well together, they might be able to do it. For the next couple of years, if the Habs make the playoffs, they're going to be seen as a major threat regardless of the standings.

Yep! This run is just a glimpse of the future. Price has a few years left in him. The Habs will find a way.

[@JarradBruessel32]

Except they have to get through tampa, boston, and Toronto first. Plus Detroit and Ottawa will be better next season. They have to make the playoffs first. These last 2 years in regular setups Montreal doesn't make the playoffs

STEVE YOU FORGOT TAMPA'S SCORE

[@alanshields0]

Hey Steve. I m a big fan of your LFR. I watch frequently. But it's awesome to see your real take on the finale of this playoff. Not as a character of yourself but an intelligent hockey commentator. I hope there is room in your future for a balance of both the extreme of your LFR and the content you released in this video. Well done brother

As a longtime MTL fan "since 1986" , i didn't have high expectations for the Play-offs in the TOR & MTL series in 2021 , thinking it will be a quick series Toronto would win . Then the surprising 2 wins in overtime made me watch the play-offs again ,and the upset in game 7 thinking it was a first round fluke like it was in 2002 vs Boston, 2004 vs Boston again then 2010 vs Washington. But then MTL crushed WPG in the 2nd round and soundly beat Vegas in the 3rd round , so maybe this is NOT a fluke they made it to the finals, you get very High hopes since 1993. Just to get completely smitten by Tampa in the first 3 games , was sneaky gut punch .

Not gonna lie, one of my first thoughts after all the tears and cheering in 2020, was the team not getting to win in front of their fans. It's unreal that we went back to back. Stamkos is the best Captain in hockey today, and among the best of all time. If we don't resign him, our franchise is done. PS: Tampa has the longest sellout streak in the NHL. I know I'm a homer, but I genuinely appreciate this video with unbiased analysis. In my mind, the best quality of Canadians is their fairness, passion, measure and sportsmanship. As an American from Clearwater, FL (Tampa Bay)...I feel blessed to have Canadian culture influence my city in such a dramatic way. Thank you. Last thought, Maroon had a hat trick of cups while Perry had a hat trick of cup losses.

[@JarradBruessel32]

Kucherov was referring to the habs fans claiming habs in 7 after only winning one game and claiming that tampa sucked. I saw hundreds of comments making these claims lol
