Devils Win the Stanley Cup!!!!

[Dave2112]

What a great series! It ranks right up there with the Devils/Avs and the Rangers/Canucks Finals.

And how cool was it to see Scott Stevens hoist the Cup to the Star Wars theme? Got chills, man...

A big congratulations to the Anahiem Mighty Ducks for having a truly outstanding season. Last place last year to pushing the finals to seven games. Actually, if they'd played anyone but my beloved Devils, I'd have been pulling for the Ducks.

Jean-Sebastian Giguere became only the fifth player to win the Conn Smythe Trophy (playoff MVP) from a losing team. The only down point was the lack of class shown by the fans who booed him while the Devils players were cheering him on. "Jiggy" deserved every ounce of that honor.

There's no better defensive team than the Devils, especially with a lead, and they showed it last night...finishing the series the way it started, with a 3-0 victory. FYI, this was only the third finals where each team won all of it's home-ice games.

This is why I love hockey...it's the only sport where my favorite team consistently wins. We're tied with Detroit for most wins in the last decade...anyone smell a dynasty?

Yeah....they call it an Apocolyptic Miracle. 🙄

I'd love to see it, but the Nets seem uninspired. I hope they can pick up tonight's game. No team has ever come back in the finals from a 3-1 deficit.

congrats to the New Jersey Devils. i remember when they won the East, i was thinking "damn, now the Ducks have to face Broduer!!". they are a great team, with a great goalie. i was pulling for the Ducks, but you have to give it to the Devils. this was a great series. game 7? wow, what a great series....

i got to give it up for the Ducks. i am a Los Angeles Kings fan, and it was going to be bittersweet to see them win, considering the Kings failed to win back in 1993, but i have to give them credit. they played with heart, desire, and skill. the defining moment was when Paul Kariya got knocked out in Game 6, by one of the biggest, baddest defensemen in all of hockey Scott Stevens, only to return minutes later and score a goal. that showed me their true grit and heart. this was no flukey "Cinderella" team. the Ducks proved they could play with anyone. it was just unfortunate that they played the Devils. i believe if they played Ottawa, they would be hoisting the Cup right now. oh well Ducks, better luck next year.
