Well, the Florida Panthers have now won their second, back-to-back Stanley Cup, defeating the Edmonton Oilers in Game 6 of the Playoffs. And oh, how the rubber rats rained down on the ice!
So congrats to the Panthers.
This is how the Oilers will be spending their summer now until the next hockey season starts . . .
. . . and this is how we Oilers fans will be spending ours, alas.
But next year, we'll get that Cup! NEXT YEAR! *shakes fist*
...yes, there is always next year.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that the Panthers didn't cheat to get that cup--not much legitimate comes from Florida these days.

Condolences.
ReplyDeleteI just walked out of our kitchen as the newscaster was saying the Florida Panthers had won the Stanley Cup and my first thought was, "Oh Debra will not be happy."
ReplyDeleteNEXT YEAR!!!!!
Ice rinks in sub-tropical Florida? That seems so wrong and in terms of environmental responsibility very blameworthy. If any of the oilers are in Great Britain this summer, they are welcome to come and oil all the door hinges in our house.
ReplyDeleteMy condolences. I am in agreement with the above comment, so blameworthy of Florida to even have a Hockey Team and Ice Rinks. *winks*
ReplyDelete🏝🥹 Just a travesty! A place that cannot grow ice on its own is allowed to win an ice championship!! The world is upside down!! 🙃 Return The Cup to the land of ice and snow!! ❄️🏒❄️✊️💪
ReplyDeleteHockey in Florida is unnatural. DeSantis needs to focus on that, and forget about the drag queens.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry! I had the same thought as Bob when I heard about it this morning.
ReplyDeleteOh noooo!
ReplyDeleteNot Florida!
Oh well. There's next year...
XOXO
Well, dang.... I was so hoping y'all would put FL in its place.
ReplyDeleteThis calls for consolation chocolate. A lot. It's a big cup to lose.
ReplyDelete@ Boud -- I agree! What I need is a Stanley Cup made out of chocolate! Hershey actually marketed such a product about a dozen years ago and I made it a giveaway on my blog. But I wish I had another one to eat today!

how on earth duz flo-ridda hazza ice hockey teem?
ReplyDeleteYou have my condolences, and a very big cocktail at the bar on my tab for the loss. No less to that stinking State of Florida yet!
ReplyDeleteYou know I don't have any idea about who is who with this, but the crying towel says it all.
ReplyDeleteFive Canadian teams in the playoffs and no Stanley Cup again, F*CK, F*CK, F*CK! It's hard to feel too sorry for the Oilers though, as they cry all the way to the bank with their huge salaries and trophy wives. It's the heartbroken, yet steadfast, fans I feel bad for!
ReplyDeleteI don't watch any sports.
ReplyDeleteHave you read the Beartown trilogy by Fredrik Backman? That's based around two small towns who live for their hockey.
ReplyDeleteAs god is your witness!!!
ReplyDeleteNot again, damnit. So sorry.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope third try's the charm.
Breaking News: those rat bastards, a.k.a Florida Panthers, dropped the Stanley Cup last night resulting in a large crack in the bowl and a dent on the base. CLASSY.
ReplyDeleteFlorida. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI thought about you last night when I saw the news. I assume you'll send a congratulatory note to DeSantis, right? 😀
ReplyDeleteSad…again! Next year though…
ReplyDeleteTundra- See... this just proves you can't have anything nice in Florida.
