I'm totally happy for Johnathan Toews, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook, Patrick Sharp, and Cristobal Huet. The Blackhawks were definitely more deserving than The Flyers, who have some serious drama in the dressing room that they need to deal with.
Winning the Stanley Cup is the hardest trophy to win in sports bar none. And I'm not just saying that . 4 rounds of best of 7 games often with a day or two in-between games is exhausting, and that's not including OTs or practice, not to mention travelling to cities hours away. There are no breaks, no days off, you're constantly practising, working out, strategizing. The Hawks and The Flyers worked hard to get where they did, they worked harder and wanted it more than any other team in the league and for that I have to give them props, they may not have been my pick, or anyone else's for that matter but they didn't get to the final on sheer luck alone.
JT is now the 2nd youngest captain to lead his team to Stanley Cup glory (guess who's the 1st?) and honestly there is no one player more deserving than Johnathan Toews, what a way to top off a fantastic year! And congrats to the city of Chicago on bringing home Lord Stanley, everyone in Toronto is seething now.
PS That piece of trash Patrick Kane is still rocking the mullet...is there anyway we can leave his name off of The Cup? Bueller?
