This is one of the GREATEST defensive 3rd period performances I have EVER seen. Tampa Bay did not get their FIRST shot on goal in the period until 8 mins in. That is insane.
Landeskog sacrificing his skate blade to defend his goal was amazing, that possibly saved his team from the game being tied. And it’s funny how typical Tampa took the opportunity to say “tOo maNy meN oN tHe iCe” as he was helplessly crawling off the ice.
Tampa was the biggest bunch of whiny d-bags I can remember in the NHL. Beating two of the worst teams to ever reach a final without having to play a true road game in either series gave them a sense of entitlement and a distorted idea that they were one of league’s all-time greatest teams. They were and still are very good, but nothing we haven’t seen before.
The Avs did have too many men on the ice, but because of Landy skate was missing a blade he wasn't involved in the play. If Landy did try to play the puck that could of been a penalty. Watching him crawl and watching the lineman by the Avs bench he knew something was wrong. The refs can decide if too many men on the ice was justified in this case. Also with Mack trying to help him to the bench the Lightning had a few seconds of an advantage. I laughed when the icing waved off, just because they have done that all series. Finally the refs wised up and saw the Lightning players were being lazy because they wanted another face-off.
@@aaron6268 Whatever dude. The Avs registered 72 wins between the regular season and playoffs, tying the record. They also had a total of four losses throughout the playoffs and only one team in NHL history had fewer to win the Cup; the 88 Oilers team had three. Go back to your Mommy's basement and STFU. Whiner baby. Lol
Words don't describe how stressed I was in the last period of this game. As the seconds ticked away I got more and more nervous. By the time the last minute rolled around I was hyperventilating and could barely stand up straight, and when the Final horn sounded I was curled up in a ball on my floor in tears from how happy I was for the Avalanche winning. It's something i'll never forget. Ever.
I couldn’t agree more…. This is what I needed. I was 7 when I first started playing, my dad took me to my first nhl game Blue jackets - Colorado back in 02. Avs won 2-0. I started loving the team. Rob Blake was my fav player so I was #4 throughout my hockey days. What’s special about this is, my dad was never a hockey fan growing up, when he asked me if I wanted to play that’s when my whole life changed. My dad passed away 2 years ago and I believe he made this happen for me last night. It was truly a special moment I’ll never forget
I've done this many times. Ahh the life of a fan is just as stressful as a player.lol. I'm so pumped. Been a Quebec fan from a little kid playing on the ice
Just to let you know that to many men on the ice is 6 or more people even if someone is hurt or “crawling off the ice.” There were many more penalties that should have been called.
Magoon for sure, with his antics. Trying to break his stick full force across Manson's knee. Avs had none of it, while Tampa players were acting childish
Yeah that was a huge thing in this series, it was almost like the Avs were the defending champions with all the composure and the lightning were the new kids on the block letting the moment get to them. It was so strange but it comes down to hunger. Nothing like that first cup drive for a young team (well, 3rd cup but first for most of the guys here). Tampa wilted under the pressure and the Avs flourished. What an amazing run. Go ASS!
0:16 I can't believe that kick save wasn't in the highlights, shit popped his blade out and his teammate helped drag him to the bench immediately. Colorado was pulling all the stops defensively at the end.
They played a great defensive third period, by outskating Tampa from beginning to end. Four SOG in 20 minutes, facing elimination? That’s the definition of being dominated.
2:45 see Kucherov at the bench rage quitting. He had broken his stick and when he went over to the bench they didn't have a replacement ready for him and he threw his gloves and quit. Damn that is harsh stuff.
Right afterwards someone from Lightning( cant see the number) cross-checks the Linesman! Bunch of crybabies! KUCHEROV is what we used to call a goal hog, standing at the blueline like Phil Esposito!!!!
As an Avs fan I was very impressed by the sportsmanship of the Tampa Bay fans who stayed and watched the presentation of the Stanley Cup to Colorado. We won’t forget this!
Landeskog doing his best Thibaut Courtois impression. The captain that saved the cup……with the blade of his skate. Hell of a foot save. Probably the defining moment of the series that we get a defensive stand like this. I went crazy when Landy got that block. Proper captain!
@@thomasboyle2828 There was a problem… the Lightning’s depth sucks wet dog ass and their prime scoring chances came solely from their top line and the odd tip in or bounce from the point. Plus, their special teams were pathetic. Vasy carried them in the finals, the Avs outclassed them so hard.
Glad you mentioned the commentating. One of the hardest parts of watching a “small market” playoffs run is espn’s insufferable bias.

LMAO give me a break. that joke of a team Toronto should have ended Tampa in round one, tampa gets a 5-3 power play in game 6 while down 2-1 then they score to tie it up THEN leafs get a goal called back and a penalty called against them leading to Tampa scoring in game 7. Worst officiating I’ve ever seen in my life was in that series. Tampa had every single call go their way the entire playoffs. Stupid call after stupid call in tampas favour and then this happened 😁😁😁 karma at its finest . Stop being a sore loser, it’s embarrassing
@@Orr077 you clearly need glasses, pal. The best example is the hook on Bellemare seconds before Lehkonens game winning goal. There were plenty of other penalties that went uncalled for Tampa in Colorados favor. The refs were just shitty this whole series.
Well, he's crawling off the ice because he blocked a shot. I find it extremely impressive that so many hockey players block slap shot and other high velocity shots. Most sane people would not.
That save from Kuemper with just over a minute left was colossal. The puck just lazily drifts through the skates and sticks of like 4 guys and then suddenly there's a near point-blank shot from Nick Paul from just outside the slot. Everyone is talking about Kuemper's save on Kucherov but this one was just as big imo.
That was probably the worst effort in the last 30 seconds I’ve ever seen by a team facing elimination. The cup is on the line and you skate back like a snail Hedman? In what universe was that going to be an icing? Then with 15 seconds Palat throws it back to no one and into their own zone. Colorado didn’t even have to do much to kill the clock, the Lightning killed it themselves.
Well, in Hedman's defense, he was probably completely exhausted having exerted more effort and energy in one game than most people will ever do in one day in their entire lives. I suspect that Hedman would be high on the most minutes played the last three seasons. I forgive him for being fatigued. Also, the Lightning did not win so much by dominating effort their opponents but rather outskill them.
@@MrClebophd 2:37 notice how he skates after it fast to start and then completely slows down. Also, he’s a pro athlete going for a championship. He wasn’t suddenly too tired to skate.

It still feels kind of unreal. Like I’m in a different universe. Tampa Bay losing? Someone else wins the cup? Seeing Tampa actually lose is a fever dream. Maybe some day I’ll wake up. I was so convinced Tampa was going to win, even after being down 3-1. They were unstoppable. No one could outlast them. Destiny laid its path for them. They had sort a magical element to their game, and they LOSE?!?!!!! I was rooting for Colorado to win but was never super confident until the literal last 10 seconds.
Exactly the play by play announcer as no emotion for the game and very monotone. Especially in the final seconds, however the play by play over on sportsnet broadcast best call in the final seconds. “The Dynasty will be denied, and a new legacy begins. They've reached the summit! And the Avalanche are 2022 Stanley Cup Champions!"
ESPN announcers were horrible all season. You would think that they would step up their game for the Stanley Cup finals. But if you watch the first half of the 3rd period, you wouldn't even think that these guys were in the same arena. They spent nearly 10 minutes of the period talking about meaningless trivia. When you mention the year and draft place of one of the players, why the F* bother calling the game???
After Kucherov breaks his stick with 35 secs left he then goes to the bench and the trainer didn't have one ready he then proceeds to throw his gloves at the trainer CLASS guy 02:45

@@johncox7169 that’s what I was thinking. Not sure how Maroon didn’t get a penalty on that one. I know the refs were trying to keep the whistles in their pockets, but that one was just egregious!
Asinine comment about what the Lightning have done "in this salary cap era", considering they circumvented that cap going into last year's playoffs. Full disclosure: I'm an Isles fan.
Glad the Avs won. They're my Western Conference team and easy to root for. I can only imagine how Corey Perry feels. He can take solace with getting his in 2007, but losing three in a row is still oof.

“But there were too many men on the ice with Kadri shot”- “but TB had more players on ice than the AVS”….. “Who gives a shit, it’s over. Remember adult children, once you fire a bullet you can’t get it back, like once a game or penalty is called or not, it’s over.”
A player getting off the ice must be within 5 feet of the bench OR the player must be out of the play and not intentionally handle or touch the puck with their stick or body before leaving. If the pick accidentally touches them, it doesn’t count as a penalty. Just looked it up, it’s in the rules. Using our resources we all have access to. Facts don’t care about feelings. Neither does it have bias
I'm an avs fan all the way, but I still have respect for all the Tampa fans and players. Lightning really did put on a fight for us. Only Tampa player I dont like is tom brady. Oh....wait.....whoops!!
Didn’t Kucherov learn anything when Coburn snapped his stick in 2015 that led to the Blackhawks icer 2nd goal? When you’re playing your last and most important shift of the season get a fresh goddam stick!
0:16 kucherov has a wide open shot at the net and just waits until its completely blocked before shooting. I don't understand what he was thinking there.
What’s Hagel looking so completely shattered about? Been on the team a month and 1/2 at the trade deadline and acting like his brother got killed in the war.
To be fair, I’m pretty sure that was the first time he had ever been that far in the playoffs. He only came into the NHL in 2020. I’m sure you’d be heartbroken too if you made it that far only to be defeated.
@@1-upking119 Exactly. Hagel’s been in the NHL 2 years and crying a river. And standing tall with dignity have been Marcel Dionne, Henrik Sedin, Brad Park, Paul Kariya, Henrik Lundqvist, Pavel Bure, Peter Stastny, Eric Lindros, Erik Karlsson, Pat LaFontaine, Gil Perreault, Rod Gilbert, and many others who had every reason to cry and didn’t.
@@us-Bahn I’m gonna go out on a limb and say most of those guys were older than him then, so they were much more mature. Besides, plenty of players have cried like him after losing the cup, and dozens have had their head down like him too. Marchand became a meme because he was crying.
@@1-upking119 Yes, I respect your counter examples. I’m sure there are many. In Hagel’s case it’s not very convincing that a player so young, so new to the NHL, and so recently acquired by Tampa, could possibly have much skin in the game to justify a public display of emotional devastation.
This is one of the GREATEST defensive 3rd period performances I have EVER seen. Tampa Bay did not get their FIRST shot on goal in the period until 8 mins in. That is insane.
I was thinking the same thing. So many players helping out Kuemper.
And didn’t they only get like 4 shots on goal in the third period? I could be wrong with how the last few minutes went
@Daniel Le definitely he was standing strong

Same with Vasy. He kept his composure in the handshake line and was furious in the tunnel. I can’t blame him, though.
Great job making this look like an ESPN Classic
There’ll be no three-peat.
Unless you're Corey Perry. In which case you just completed yours!
@@jeremycole6435 Leave that to the 81-82 islanders
I’m Pat Summerall @@jeremycole6435.
It still feels kind of unreal. Like I’m in a different universe. Tampa Bay losing? Someone else wins the cup? Seeing Tampa actually lose is a fever dream. Maybe some day I’ll wake up. I was so convinced Tampa was going to win, even after being down 3-1. They were unstoppable. No one could outlast them. Destiny laid its path for them. They had sort a magical element to their game, and they LOSE?!?!!!! I was rooting for Colorado to win but was never super confident until the literal last 10 seconds.
@@alexchen3332 to me it felt like Tampa was the champion for a decade and I was so happy to see someone else win 😭
Worst play by play guy ever. Had it muted all series. Miss ya Gary Thorne
Gary Thorne and Doc Embrick... Best hockey announcers ever..
That's the difference between somebody with a true passion for hockey and somebody just doing a job for a paycheck. Legend
Exactly the play by play announcer as no emotion for the game and very monotone. Especially in the final seconds, however the play by play over on sportsnet broadcast best call in the final seconds.
“The Dynasty will be denied, and a new legacy begins. They've reached the summit! And the Avalanche are 2022 Stanley Cup Champions!"
I was glad that ESPN got hockey back, but they needed a true hockey announcer not the one they put the whole series.
ESPN announcers were horrible all season. You would think that they would step up their game for the Stanley Cup finals. But if you watch the first half of the 3rd period, you wouldn't even think that these guys were in the same arena. They spent nearly 10 minutes of the period talking about meaningless trivia. When you mention the year and draft place of one of the players, why the F* bother calling the game???
After Kucherov breaks his stick with 35 secs left he then goes to the bench and the trainer didn't have one ready he then proceeds to throw his gloves at the trainer CLASS guy 02:45
You're right, good eye. Wow!
Thank you Landy! Our Captain !
2:57 abuse of an offical?..... I think so.... and Bellemares dive?.... both the league should look at..... regardless if the season is over or not....
I feel bad for the players..... all season it's like dont touch his hands dont interfere with someone skating and then the playoffs come around and it's well that's ok now sometimes....
What was that guy screaming about after the no icing call? I think 86 on the lightning
@@avsrock1561 where was bellmares dive? I liked him when he was an av last year but after seeing how dirty he got in this series, I can’t stand him now
It the DoPS is gonna look at anything out of this game, it should be Maroon's slash after the last goal. If Manson hadn't seen that coming and blocked it with his stick that could have been real nasty.
@@johncox7169 that’s what I was thinking. Not sure how Maroon didn’t get a penalty on that one. I know the refs were trying to keep the whistles in their pockets, but that one was just egregious!
No matter how many times I watch this, I keep hoping the Lightning won’t score.
Most nerve-wracking moments of my life lmao. Go Avs Go
Asinine comment about what the Lightning have done "in this salary cap era", considering they circumvented that cap going into last year's playoffs. Full disclosure: I'm an Isles fan.
I'm glad COL won,, 3X for TAM would of been too much.
Glad the Avs won. They're my Western Conference team and easy to root for.
I can only imagine how Corey Perry feels. He can take solace with getting his in 2007, but losing three in a row is still oof.
21 years i waiting i watch and I said oneday it well happen. I was 37 years old my son was 8 years old . Now I'm 58 my son is 29 his Daughter is 7 and in last 3 minutes I was going nuts and went crazier when they won . My sweet Reyna said Grandpa you are 😨 me I had too stop and explain too her and she just smile and say okay I understand then I went back like I was a 37 again 😆 🤣
Finally we don't have to hear about pat maroon anymore
In real life, what would I prefer for my death 💀 ? Getting struck by a lightning ⚡️, or getting wiped out by a massive pile of snow rushing through the mountains 🏔?
I bet on the Avalanche to win this game, easy money
Is there a parade date? Heading home July 7 but will move it earlier!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s going to be held on Thursday at 10am downtown
June 30th
Thursday June 30th.
Let's go boys
I think Nick Paul is the only person on the Lightning I feel sorry for, he wasn't apart of the other teams, and he isn't Corey Perry.
thanks for winning me $265 boys ❤
ESPN announcing is the worst in cup history! WORST EVER
If you ever feel like a failure, just remember Corey Perry lost 3 Stanley cups in a row…on different teams 💀💀💀
I seem to remember Marian Hossa as well. On the Wings against the Hawks when the Hawks won....on the Hawks against the Wings when the Wings won. In successive years.
@@BuriedFlame either I’m reading this wrong, or you got it all wrong.
He was with the pens against the wings when the wings won 2008 Stanley cup finals
He was with the wings against the pens when the pens won 2009 Stanley cup finals
He was with the wings against the hawks when the wings won 2009 Western Conference finals
He was with the hawks against the wings when the hawks won 2013 western conference semifinals
2:55 whos the idiot that crosschecks the ref by the lightning bench? maybe not a good idea to be doing that
Kucherov did it
BLUE ON BLUE
TB were so crappy even several empty minutes of empty net were of no use. No icing because he STOPPED SKATING.
Tampa is screaming for a call.
Shocking. 🙄
tampabay never stood a chance i dont know how they won two in a row
Because they were going up against teams that probably shouldn’t have been in the finals, plus the whole salary-cap argument that’s been beaten like a horse.
And this is coming from a Habs fan
Lekhonen went from the worst team to winning the cup. He should buy a lottery ticket 🎫 well done my man
he already won the lottery :)
@Tony1500 the toronto make me laughs 1984-85 season had a 20-52-8 record, LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOthe habs r not the worst team ever. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
@Tony1500 oof late no more. struck late no Paul. I delate no more. I delate no Paul. late no doubt delate😔😒😄😔😒😔😄😛wtf loll lmao PERIODt.😌😉😒😣😒😔😒😔😄😄😔😒😔😒😔😒😒😔😒😒😔
@Tony1500 You obviously did, but he's not wrong.
Whats going on at the Tampa bench at 2:47 ? Is he throwing punches?
I think they didn’t have a stick for him lol
I will never forget the Captain flopping around and crawling in the closing moments of this final battle
After blocking a potentially game-tying shot with his skate…
1:41 That's our Josh on loan to Avs 😍🥰🤩
Refs to Tampa : “yeah he can’t play hockey with one skate, we’re not calling that shit”
Common sense prevails
Bruh this still gives me chills 🥲🥲🥲
Bowen Byram man...
that kid deserved CREDIT for that third period
“But there were too many men on the ice with Kadri shot”-
“but TB had more players on ice than the AVS”…..
“Who gives a shit, it’s over. Remember adult children, once you fire a bullet you can’t get it back, like once a game or penalty is called or not, it’s over.”
Seeing lots of whiny Bolts fans and obnoxious Avs fans. Can y’all chill the f out
A player getting off the ice must be within 5 feet of the bench OR the player must be out of the play and not intentionally handle or touch the puck with their stick or body before leaving. If the pick accidentally touches them, it doesn’t count as a penalty. Just looked it up, it’s in the rules. Using our resources we all have access to. Facts don’t care about feelings. Neither does it have bias
Just a reminder, all of these guys were playing their asses off for free.
my bf just showed me hockey stuff :o
I'm not totally versed on the rules here - why exactly was icing waved off at the end?
Oh, songs from the time they came and won their Cups
I’m still stunned on what Kucherov did with 21 seconds left, man literally rage quitted
Perry fell on his own , wow really bad acting job.
Congratulations to the Colorado Avalanche !!! Fuck yeah
Way to Go Avalanche wooooooooo
I'm an avs fan all the way, but I still have respect for all the Tampa fans and players. Lightning really did put on a fight for us. Only Tampa player I dont like is tom brady. Oh....wait.....whoops!!
Didn’t Kucherov learn anything when Coburn snapped his stick in 2015 that led to the Blackhawks icer 2nd goal? When you’re playing your last and most important shift of the season get a fresh goddam stick!
LOL kuch at 2:46
This will never get old.
Fuck yes thank God. 😊
Man it was good seeing Lehky shine again this year
0:16 kucherov has a wide open shot at the net and just waits until its completely blocked before shooting. I don't understand what he was thinking there.
Not half as exciting as Game 6 in 2013...)) Now THAT was a finish!
Best thing I seen all year watching this game, happy the Aves took it all away from the tampers...
Kutcherov should be ashamed of himself
Looks good on Perry
I thought the avs dominated the 3rd period. Unreal
AAAAAVS BABY !!!!!
WOOOOOO Yeah I dont really watch hockey unless the avalanche are in the playoffs
Edit: lets go avalanche
Good. Tampa Bay can go away for once
gay party in the locker room..for sure
How do they replace blades so fast or do they change skates?
Think they just clip in to the bottom of the skate?
Amazing😍
1:41 #42 the mastermind of the WIN. : )
What’s Hagel looking so completely shattered about? Been on the team a month and 1/2 at the trade deadline and acting like his brother got killed in the war.
To be fair, I’m pretty sure that was the first time he had ever been that far in the playoffs. He only came into the NHL in 2020. I’m sure you’d be heartbroken too if you made it that far only to be defeated.
@@1-upking119 Exactly. Hagel’s been in the NHL 2 years and crying a river. And standing tall with dignity have been Marcel Dionne, Henrik Sedin, Brad Park, Paul Kariya, Henrik Lundqvist, Pavel Bure, Peter Stastny, Eric Lindros, Erik Karlsson, Pat LaFontaine, Gil Perreault, Rod Gilbert, and many others who had every reason to cry and didn’t.
@@us-Bahn I’m gonna go out on a limb and say most of those guys were older than him then, so they were much more mature. Besides, plenty of players have cried like him after losing the cup, and dozens have had their head down like him too. Marchand became a meme because he was crying.
@@1-upking119 Yes, I respect your counter examples. I’m sure there are many. In Hagel’s case it’s not very convincing that a player so young, so new to the NHL, and so recently acquired by Tampa, could possibly have much skin in the game to justify a public display of emotional devastation.
