Vegas wins Cup

Well, how about that? Six years in, second trip to the Final, the Knights polish off the Panthers in five. Mark Stone is the first to have a hat trick in a Cup clinching game since 1922, which I find hard to believe. Marchessault is the first undrafted Conn Smythe winner since Gretzky.

And the Panthers get demolished the night after the Heat bow out to the Nuggets.

If there are any homophobic bigots who are fans of both teams in Fascist Florida, I hope they're crying in their beers.

Happy Pride Month. Go Blue State Teams.

Well done.

As to your question if there are deplorables in Florida, just watch the fans in game 5. They were screaming at the officials like unhinged lunatics. So glad they lost. And I'm not a fan of either team, but I love the sport.

Long term injury report allows teams to hoard key "injured" players who miraculously return fully healed for the playoffs when the salary cap is not in force.
