Well, it's all over. The Blackhawks won a well-deserved Stanley Cup, thus ending the longest drought between wins of the cup.

And what a victory it was: the most anti-climactic goal scored in an overtime I have ever seen in hockey!

Still, I'm glad to see an Original 6 team win and especially to see the Flyers lose.

Meh, anymore when I hear about the Red Wings I'm not thinking hockey.

It was good to see Chicago win.

The team now with the longest time between cups is Toronto. (Don't say this too loudly near shadows or he'll get depressed)

There's a professional hockey team in Toronto?












(Of course, being a Bruins fan and given my team's epic collapse in the playoffs, I should probably not be a wise guy about the Maple Leafs.)

Who said anything about them being professional? *turns away to avoid shadows' scathing stare*

The obvious implication of your referring to a "team ... with the longest time between cups" in a discussion of the Stanley Cup is that you were referring to a team in the NHL, which is professional team by design if not by action.

I was referring to ability not status granted due to the fact that they are getting paid for (not) playing hockey.

You do know that I knew that, right? I just couldn't resist the opportunity to extend the Leaf-bashing! That way, our friend shadows will have more to read when he logs on later tonight.
