WOOHOO!! The Ottawa Senators lost the cup! The Anaheim Mighty Ducks take the cup in game 5!

There is nothing more satisfying that seeing your least favourite hockey team lose the Stanely Cup. The only thing more satisfying would be if the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Cup.

Yay Ducks! You suck, Sens!

Woo hoo indeed, I know nothing about hockey yet still won $100 this game.

Anaheim lose at home? A fool and his money are soon parted :cool:

Always bet with deluded fans

No, they won.

LONG LIVE LEAFS NATION!!!!

Senators still did better then the Leafs, that's really all that matters. Then again, that's not much of a challenge. ;)

No, they won.

I know, hence the question mark - I couldn't believe he was going to bet against Anaheim winning at home.

I was going to make my own thread, but I'll just post my gloating here. DUCKS WIN!!!!! QUACK ATTACK!! WOOHOO!!!!!! :D

How many cups have the Sens won.....oh yeah NONE!!!!!!

We're experiencing a minor setback right now...but come talk to us after winning 13 cups


On an unrelated note...anyone know if Nashville will move to Hamilton? that would be awesome since Copps Colliseum is like 10 minutes from my house...:)

LONG LIVE LEAFS NATION!!!!
*explodes with rage*

Torontonians are the only Canadians vile enough to root against the Canadian team. I believe that the cause is that their hearts do not pump blood like yours or mine, but rather a mixture of pure evil and ground up puppy dog.

That's because Ottawa fans are a bunch of pussies. They're so obnoxious. Why should we cheer for a team of wankers whose fanbase is made up of bunch of people from a city that stinks like a yak butt? (ok, so I hate Ottawa)...

That's what we say about Toronto fans (we also say that they molest their children and make human sacrifices, but that is neither here nor there), but we would still root for them if they had a team that could make it anywheres in the playoffs.

And that's enough to cheer for a franchise arm of the soulless Evil Mouse Empire that was named after a crappy series of children's films?

*Throws party for the Anaheim Mighty Ducks and starts the Quack chant*

Way to go Ducks. First west coast team to win the cup since 1925 (and the first in the modern era)

Ordinarily I don't care one way or the other, being a fan of the Lightning, Rangers and Sabres, although I do dislike Ottawa. But I was rooting for the ducks because I like Teemu Selanne, as a player and as a person, and I felt like he really deserved to win.

How many cups have the Sens won.....oh yeah NONE!!!!!!

We're experiencing a minor setback right now...but come talk to us after winning 13 cups

Ottawa Senators have 10 Stanley Cups, actually. ;)

1903, 1904, 1905, 1906, 1909, 1911, 1920, 1921, 1923, 1927.

Well done Ducks!!!!

QUACK QUACK !!


cant wait til September to see the Stanley cup winners playing in London !

Yeah, 10 may be less than 13, but the Leafs have been around how much longer than the Sens? Nearly 60 years or so?

When was the last time the Leafs came even this close to a Stanley cup anyways?

God, how I hate the Ducks. Not only are they named after a Disney movie, they're in a city with palm trees! Palm trees! Heresy, I tell you.

As for my favorite hockey team, all I have to say is this.

Cheers for the Ducks.

Jeers to the NHL for stretching out the hockey season into June.

As a Montreal Canadiens fan, I can't help but smile at all your silly show of one-upmanship.

Come back and talk to me when you've won a few more. Say, like 23.

As far as this year is concerned, congrats to the Duck and their Quebec-born Goalie. Too bad for the last canadian team in the race. Next time, the party's in Montreal.

USA vs. Canada

USA WINS!!! :D

Ok Ok!! This is sarcasm but someone had to do it :D

To me it was a bunch of USians, Canadians, Czech, Finnish, Russians and many more that won against a bunch of USians, Canadians, Czech, Finnish, Russians.

This is your obligatory "OMG' Ur mercans are eb1l!!!111" post.

USA vs. Canada

USA WINS!!! :D

Ok Ok!! This is sarcasm but someone had to do it :D

Given that most players in the NHL are Canadian and European, it would be fair to say it was everyone versus everyone. ;)

I, too, was heartbroken when the Red Wings fell in 6 to the Ducks, but give them some credit - the new ownership dropped the name "Mighty Ducks of Anaheim" and the team is thankfully known simply as the "Anaheim Ducks." So now, instead of sounding like a cheesy kids' movie, they sound like a West Coast college team. They're moving up in the world.

I'm just bitter that I've on the other side of the Atlantic and unable to watch NHL hockey. Next season will be better because at least I'll be able to watch it.

Next time, the party's in Montreal.

Yeah, I wish.... :(

Actually, Ottawa Senators have won 10 Stanley Cups

Stanley Cup Winners: The Complete List of Stanley Cup Champions (http://proicehockey.about.com/od/stanleycupbunker/a/stanley_cuplist.htm)

Even though it has been 40 years, since their last cup win, I remain a Toronto Maple Leaf fan!!

It's too bad for you then the next wave of expansion hasn't kicked in; I've heard rumors that the next expansion is for Europe.

That's going to make road trips suck...And probably stretch out the season another month. Can you imagine Stanley Cup finals starting after the Fourth of July?

Not according to the almighty Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottawa_Senators)

You lost your original team to St. Louis......

Technically, the Senators haven't because they original team folded.

The new Sens haven't won a cup so...

Yeah, 10 may be less than 13, but the Leafs have been around how much longer than the Sens? Nearly 60 years or so?

actually if you are going to count those older cups then the Leafs are younger than the sens...the original sens were founded in 1893, the leafs in 1917 with the NHL......2001 when we lost to Carolina in the East final

I wasn't sure who to root for. I do know that it wasn't so much Anahiems skill but more it seemed the Senetors beat themselves. I don't really car that the DUcks won I wanted the Islanders better yet Rangers but they seem to suck right now(champs onlt 3 times [28,40,94]) so GO ISLANDERS!!!!!!

Yeah, I wish.... :(
2 side notes about the Montreal Habs

Habs fired Beauchemin, he turned around.. to help win the Duck win the Championship, In the finals his Ice time was only second to Scott N-mayer.

Beauchemin is the Top defenseman from Quebec IMHO.

The Quebec impact players play today on places like Tampa, Buffalo or Anaheim

WOOHOO!! The Ottawa Senators lost the cup! The Anaheim Mighty Ducks take the cup in game 5!

Yay Ducks! You suck, Sens!
I hate you.

*is still sulking about Ottawa's loss*

awww!! It is ok. Wait till next year :)

awww!! It is ok. Wait till next year :)
yeah, hopefully they win next year. :)

And I'd like to take this opportunity to say:

LEAFS SUCK!

I hate you.

*is still sulking about Ottawa's loss*
So... would you like me to help you burn those Sens flags? ;) My lighter is right here!

Torontonians cheer for Anaheim, because Anaheim had far more Canadian players than Ottawa does. We just love Rob and Scott. And McDonald. And Getzylav or whatever the hell his name is.

Also we jeer Ottawa for comments like these:

I have nothing against Montreal. Unlike Leafs fans, Hab fans aren't generally douchebags (which is really my biggest issue with the Leafs apart from the grammatical incorrect-ness of the name).

The best thing about Anaheim winning, is that one of the players is from my town.. and we're all friends with his brother... and hes bringing the cup to our town and we're all getting wild! GETTING WILD WITH THE STANLEY CUP!

Ok... now that is a perfectly good reason to be happy for the Ducks winning. Unlike what goes on with many Leafs fans, who are just happy that the Sens lost.

I lived in Ottawa for 12 years. It was the most miserable 12 years of my life. It went down hill when they got the Sens. I liked the Leafs and my peers gave me a hard time about it. Of course, it's part of the reason why I'm glad they lost.

BTW I heard a story about a gang of Ottawa Senator Fans beating up a visiting woman, she was wearing a Buffalo sweater, and she was alone.

is this true?

I mean, I would expect this from Liverpool or Philadelphia.. but not Ottawa.

I don't know if it's true or not, but I remember one year they passed an "anti-noise law" that barred Toronto fans from cheering within 100M of the Corel Centre. :rolleyes:

Is it sad that my favorite team can't even compete for the Stanly Cup?

GO HITMEN!

83-84 Edmonton Oilers
84-85 Edmonton Oilers
86-87 Edmonton Oilers
87-88 Edmonton Oilers

I think it's clear that it wasn't the Oilers or the Islanders who dominated the eighties, but the colors blue and orange.

Wasn't cheering for anyone this time round. Once the Habs and 'Nucks are out, I lose interest.

And that's enough to cheer for a franchise arm of the soulless Evil Mouse Empire that was named after a crappy series of children's films?

um....Disney sold off the Ducks in 2005...


As for this season, I'm only slightly happy. I hate the Ducks, but only strongly dislike Ottawa.

Go B's

awww!! It is ok. Wait till next year :)

Yeah. Wait until next year, when the Ducks become the first team in a decade to repeat. :D

Besides, I'm a Canucks fan at heart.
For some reason I am, too. Which is weird as team team pretty much sucks. In the playoffs, Naslund has the offencive prowess of Tie Domi, the Sedins haven't turned into the superstars that the were supposed to be years ago, and besides Mitchel and Cooke nobody can hit decently which is odd for a defensive team.
