I hope this is a good series. I'd like to see 7 games out of this series since there is very little "star power" left in this years playoffs. I will definitely be tuning in, and I'm very excited. I believe the Blackhawks are just the better team, and usually the better team finds a way to win the finals.

It is very obviously the greatest trophy in all of sports, Hawk! Have you ever seen it in person?

couple of times, yes. I lived not too far from Calgary back in 89 when they won it, so they had it at the Stampede the following summer...you could get pretty clsoe to it, but weren't allowed to touch it.

Seen it in a roaming hall of fame presentation as well

Chicago in 5

"You must spread some Negative Reputation around before Neg Repping Hawk again"

No way the Flyers go down that easy..you are just bitter that the Canadians were eliminated...care to make a friendly wager of sorts?

If I win you send me something Canadian....like and igloo or a moose....if you win I will send you something American......like a penny or a picture of my ball sack. Deal?

sounds good to me....except I already have lots of american pennies, we used to call them dimes here...and way too many pictures of your ball sack, although it has made for a nice little collage on the wall!

Straight up Chicago over Philly...or are you holding me to the 5 games part?

Straight up is fine.....odds aren't in my favor but I have faith. I don't believe the Flyers are the better team but they will show up and won't go out like a bunch of punks. Boys are cliking right now and anything can happen.

We need to figure out the wager now......anyone got any ideas? Something we can legally mail over the boarder is prefered.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
