ESPN sux, i dont watch it at all, with their bs agenda

Nhl players are really cool people I have ever met.

And it makes me have interest and respect as a viewer

Malika Andrews was the first come to mind

I'm guessing you meant biggest compliment :p

@@pixelj4877 yup thank you

Gordie Howe's ghost talked on there? Gretzky, Mario and Orr have all said Gordie is the GOAT, they all said it together! Stop stop calling Gretzky the GOAT.

@@happybeingmiserable4668 just like the GOAT to be modest and call another player the goat, one of the things tht makes him a GOAT!

I wish I was on the strip right now for the post game party !! 🎉🥳😭

now bring over chuck cause he loves the sport xD

@@MrManfly it was crazy bro

Absolutely ridiculous that is the case, too. Say whatever you want about soccer, but at the very least in that game, trophies are lifted by the winning team’s captain first, as well. Ice hockey is such a great sport, with the most amazing and fierecely contested trophy in all of sport. And it’s cool that it has these traditions that are unfortunately not observed in the other major NA sports.

As a Knights fan, I can say the Panthers were INCREDIBLE this year. Beating a record-breaking Boston team was an enormous accomplishment. Certainly better days ahead for the Florida Panthers organization.

Class

Thank you ❤ and you'll never know, maybe there's a match up between our team again in the future. Congratulations to the Panthers for an awesome season, your team was resilience!

Respect . Such a fun series. Fun playoffs in general . Both great teams. I enjoyed watching the Panthers beat the Bruins THOROUGHLY. Know this is a late response but I’m still riding the high from us winning LOL. Respect to your team and definitely hope we get a rematch someday!

It was better coverage for sure, however viewership for SCF this year was down. Not a great idea to not have the Final on network TV, hurt the numbers .

@Johan dahlin I agree he wasn’t the main problem with ESPNs coverage but he was extremely biased in his coverage of the western conference final. He was basically openly rooting for Dallas

@@rhyta5042the TV numbers were down but I would bet money even more people watched but on different streaming services , online, etc . Those numbers only include tv viewership.

The guy has been through a lot and has never gotten the respect that he deserves, so I hope that all changes now that he's a champion

I think you meant before Matthews.

@@somguy728 No, I think he means McDavid, because Vegas wasn’t even a favorite to win the Stanley Cup, Edmonton was. In fact, Vegas was one of the Longshots to win it all after the First Round, but man, did they make all the Haters & Doubters wrong. Maybe it’s because they lost a lotta money through FanDuel & DraftKings, but who cares?!

@@JezelJordan It definitely wasn't easy for Eichel because of him being picked 2nd behind a generational talent in McDavid!! He also dealt with team executives publicly expressing disappointment prior to the draft that they might select him instead of #97 thinking that it was a step down without realizing they were still going to get a top player. That really affected him especially having to see & hear the hockey punditry throw bouquets at McDavid(which is deserved!) on a nonstop basis which made it seem that he waa some kind of bum or bust who didn't even belong in the convo as 1 of the most talented players to play the sport. The failure in Buffalo was combination of the organization being poorly managed & him not being a lead guy meaning he doesn't make players better around him & is not a leader. Eichel is better off being a guy instead of the guy which is why he's having success in Vegas culminating with a Cup.

i don't think anybody want's to think about things like this, but the general terms of the outgoing media will make a person have (well, we all know) Every human who appreciates hockey will take the fact Eichel won the cup well.. He is one of the best players. It's Easy. He is a modern day SAKIC. Noting but Love. I'm done.

If you’re disappointed by a 12 goal game you need to start watching a different sport

@@kfnwuwbw9s Actually at 3-1 Florida could’ve come back.. The fourth goal was the game winning goal

michael jordan: the wayne gretzky of the NBA

Vegas haters always pushing their narrative, not close series=Boring. Pathetic.

Wayne seems to be magnanimous and humble in every interview.

Took a culture and a buy in but yes we got the cup (yes I’m a knights fan and an avs fans)

Indeed! It was a great knight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

who is Greg Anthony?

@@xlr0gd205 Las Vegas native Greg Anthony is a former basketball player who makes occasional appearances as a commentator on TNT, usually paired up with Brian Anderson I believe, and works with NBA TV. He won a title with the UNLV Rebels in 1990. (Adin Hill wore Larry Johnson's/Grandmama's jersey, a teammate of his, in the parade.) He came close to winning an NBA title also, but Kenny Smith's Rockets won the 1994 Finals over the Knicks 4 games to 3. Cole, his son, plays for the Magic.

Oh yeah God forbid the wives and kids are actually part of the flipping celebration, they’ve been supporting them whole way through, least they deserve is to come join them on the ice and have a laugh at the end with their family…

Yep. Hockey guys are fit and have money. Of course they are going to have attractive wives.

Just start what your familar with about the sport also plenty of Great YT channels ive been watching since the Bubble

The Hockey Guy is the best channel to learn from.

@@JarradBruessel32 I feel like hockey guy is too much jargon for a newcomer

@@craigferge4702 actually he is very informative and has lots of videos on playlists describing things for new fans

Start by watching a game here and there you’ll soon appreciate the awesome game that is hockey

Lol! A great response would've been, "Dreamt of? This is what I had WET DREAMT OF!!!

Buffalo don’t get to feel good about anything but they can’t be pissed about Eichel; they wouldn’t have won a damn thing with him.

We do. We knew Eichel was a super star player. He's not the type of player to carry a team on his back which is what Buffalo wanted him to do. A change of scenery was needed for both sides. Vegas was a perfect fit for Eichel because they already had an experienced leadership core established. All Jack had to do was play hockey. And you'll be hearing a lot more from the young Sabres in the next 3 seasons

Love seeing him contribute to a panel with some insightful words.

Wives and children should stay apart the celebration.

No skating around, no beer and champagne flowing out of the cup, players aren't getting wasted in the dressing room. What happened to hockey. Oh right it's milk and cookies and take your family to work day ☹️

@@Actionronnie You think they need to get wasted in a dressing room when they're 200 feet from the Vegas Strip with a key to the city? No one wants to waste their time in the dressing room

Gretz disproves your point @9:20.

Little bit tbh

"Your heart is in your dream/ no request is so extreme" Rather than poetry based on When You Wish Upon a Star summarizing the series.

I think he was making the point that fans use storm the rinks n fields when teams won back in the day. N he enjoyed just having it with the team and not be bombarded by fans when he won it the 4th time in 87-88. It’s become a new era of tradition to allow families into winning surroundings that wasn’t existent in the past,’ which he respects.

@@Conada1002 icic

It was Carter who said that, not Biz. Hockey has some great traditions.

Wrong, I have always felt that Gretzky was humble and believed that if you won the cup you deserve it !!

Theres that but Wayne is an ambassador for hockey and greatness.

It's jealousy plain and simple.

Lol
