Just read this trivia on Sportsnet:

The Stanley Cup has only seen two seasons where it wasn’t awarded: In 2004-05, because of a yearlong lockout, and 1918-19, because of the Spanish flu.

I read that they tried to play that season but some players died and they abandoned it, hopefully goes better this time

Didn't really need any audio for that game....watching Vegas slam 'Nucks through the boards and score a bunch of goals was pretty self-explanatory.

Nucks are out muscled and have less talent on the ice...  going to be a quick series.  Always next year eh....

It’s only one game. Vegas also had five days off. 

Don’t sprain your ankle.

Having Myers back should help.

That was a pretty good game, but blocking 40 shots per game isn't a sustainable strategy. Pettersson's goal was so nice.

Canucks are going to win it this year. Everything else is so bizarre in 2020 might as well. Never thought they would ever win the cup.

Pretty sure I can guarantee Jacob is going to get paid.

I spent last night in Toronto, Ontario sucker punching people in the face for their political views

I wish Milbury was still in the city

I had to settle for Logan Couture

No idea how to get images in here on my phone. 

Should be a fun Sharks dressing room next season between Kane and Couture.

I am currently not watching any sports. Sports should be a place where a person can escape from the stress of the world for a few hours, not be something that adds to the stress.

So what do you guys think, if Markstrom won’t sign for realistic money do we let him go?

Personally I would not be scared too, his salary could be better spent somewhere else.

I ♥️ Quinn Hughes.  Unreal race for the Calder between him and Makar. That is all.
