I.Am.Ironman Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 3 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Bet on the Oilers comeback at 3-1 (I’m a horrible better) and didn’t watch any of the game tonight. I bet on McDavid to win the Conn Smythe after game 4, odds at the time were 7:1. My thinking was, if the oilers do come back to win it is going to be McD steering the ship. It was also paying better odds than the oilers to win the series IIRC. That was my 'happiness hedge' bet. After round 1 I bet on Bobrovsky to win the CS at 27:1 odds... I was hoping for him to win it but McDavid probably deserved it given the playoff he had. He should have come out to accept the award though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. I was at brewhouse and vast majority was cheering for panthers. BP is shit. Also the ratings of the finals are in the toilet. Vast majority of Canada didn't watch and no one south did. No one in the states knows where edmonton is. Great place for the face of the sport lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. It’s about showing respect instead of crying in the dark. Mcdavid is not a person you would want having your back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is because most are young and don't even recall 2011 when they were gleeful when we lost. Most don't recall the 80's when they ran up scores on us just to pad their stats. Some of us do remember these things, This is why we do not cheer for them and are a little gleeful tonight. As you were.

All the talent in the world but just doesn't have "IT" in my opinion. Still a class below Lemieux, Gretzky, Yzerman, Sakic, Bergeron etc. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t wait till we play them for the first time next season. And hope we can face them again in the playoffs. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzerman won a cup on 1 leg, McDiver makes a mockery of the game by flopping every chance he gets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can’t touch those guys with a 10 foot pole. Leading in points is only part of being an all time great. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckDownUnder Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 11 minutes ago, Barnstorm said: Big difference between going four rounds as opposed to losing the first one. If one player was instrumental above all others in getting his team within one goal and one minute of the cup then of course he could be considered as the Conne Smythe winner. The winning team could easily have been carried by a combination of players. In the end, Mcdavid won the Smythe and wasn’t strong enough to accept it. He’ll never be a winner. I’m surprised you’re being so obtuse . More just interesting to think about I guess. But I'm not really that invested in the subjective awards tbh.

-Buzzsaw- Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Its amazing how well OEL played in the playoffs... really a comment on the poor coaching he received under Green... and Green's style of coaching being a big contributor to his injury. He was the PP QB by the end of the playoffs and the best Panther's D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
