Happy to see the Blues get their first Cup. Long overdue.

Happier to see the Bruins not win it, but the icing on the cake is that bloody Marchand character gets to wear the horns. That last-second line change at the end of the first period totally opened up the ice for Pietrangelo's goal.

"They took our dream", Skater-Man-Rat said afterward.

Gotta love it.

The issue with the hit isn't the point of contact, it's the fact that it was a late blindside hit on a player unable to defend himself. It is predatory, unnecessary, and as the NHL likes to say, "not

Blues were the better team. They won three games in Boston. Congrats. Boston wrecked St Louis dreams in Superbowls and the World Series, so they got one back here.

I know Marchand is an annoying player, but he is OUR annoying player. He's like the bug that terrorized me last week playing with @billchao But you would love Marchand if he was on your team. :-P

The Blues had a few chippy players too, they were just bigger!! A lot bigger!

I'll concede that, but, of course, he's not on my team.

It was a massive mistake he made there.  That game goes to intermission 1-0 STL, I'm convinced the second period would have been very different.

The look on his face after that puck went in told the story. Not surprised that he was absolutely gutted after that game.

Not me. He's a disgrace and the fact that he's still playing in the NHL shows you exactly how much the league cares about player safety.

I'm with @billchao. Didn't care for Matt Cooke's stuff, either, and definitely supported the Pens when they cracked down on him. Pity too because like Cooke (and more so than Cooke), Marchand has actual skills.

But it was your bug at The Links, wasn’t it?😝

He does a lot of stupid, pointless things for a player with his skill level.

Right. He can actually play at a high skill level. He just can't help but be dirty.

I don't mind an antagonist but he crosses over the line too far and too often.

I also called the clubhouse and told them to run the sprinklers on you. That's what you get for hitting your drive in the middle of the fairway. Nobody has any business hitting their ball there 😜

Amazing, the Blues pulled it off in Boston never less.
I had low expectations after they were trounced at home in game 6, but what an amazing run they had this year.
The city is in a frenzy with our first cup in St Lou.

Looking forward to the parade tomorrow.

      Playing With Irons

      By iacas ·

      Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
