Same here, I honestly hate around a 1/3rd of our fan base. From the Tuukka haters, to the rebuild whiners and how they castrate anyone for having an off game. The social media couch coaching around Boston is just awful.
Same. No surprise we have shitheads like Mike Milbury and Jeremy Roenick from our state too. There are few good people in sports media like Mike Reiss for the Patriots and Fluto Shinzawa for the Bruins but most of them are deplorable shock jocks.
When I saw him go. I thought oh no I bet his kid or wife is really sick. That would be the only thing a player would the leave playoffs. My thought was, that's shitty but your family is more important than a game honestly. Lol, I'm no Boston fan.
As much as I respect his one game hes nothing special. 4 goals in 8 games he scored 3 in 1 so 2 games hes scored a goal. Just an average player probably best to leave him alone and not put this huge expectation on his to do it again. Once in a life time flash in the pan, enjoy it, appreciate it, acknowledge it and leave him alone.
The Islanders are a really really tough team. The Lightning are just the better team right now, but that's not an insult, the Lightning have had this core for a while now and it's taken them a while to get back to the final. But the Islanders have a very bright future and I know, as a Lightning fan, I wouldn't want to face them in the playoffs again next year.
When you wait two thirds of the video expecting the Islanders getting shit on because it’s UrinatingTree and then it’s just him saying he respects the team. Bless this moment
Coming from an isles fan, I appreciate your take on them, I knew from game 1 we weren’t gonna win the series, like you said, they were just that much better than them, they had just that much better of a lineup with the names and the stars they have, I was just happy we got pasted the 2nd round and didn’t lose in the way we could have to the flyers
As a caps fan, I've always kinda wanted to see the islanders return to being a contender again. Barry trotz going there just reinforced that feeling. You guys are gonna be a force for the next few years
“Please don’t do anything stupid this offseason Jim” Jim Benning then proceeded to set the Canucks back 3 years in a single offseason. Truly incredible looking back on it.
I mean, we shut out the team that’s in the cup finals 3 times in a row. Also the fact that we definitely outplayed the coyotes but just couldn’t buy a goal against Kuemper.
Right before that was Puck Off by Pantera. Vinnie wrote it for the Stars during their '99 playoff run (they went on to win the cup!) Vinnie and Dimebag were huge Stars fans!
As a Flames fan, I’m conflicted. The Flames fan in me wants to say if we beat Dallas, we’d be in the Stanley Cup finals now. However, the realist in me knows that if we beat the Stars we would have been tossed out of the Playoffs by the Avalanche again. I kind of want the Lightning to complete their redemption, but the Stars winning would not only make me feel better about losing to them, but it would give another opportunity to laugh at Tampa (much needed since 2004). Because of that, I’m rooting for the Stars, though, I’d be lying if I said I’d be pissed if Tampa won, they had (in my opinion) the greatest embarrassment in NHL history last year, redemption may be well-earned. I also have to agree with Tree’s prediction (as foolish as that is). One thing I noticed is that the Stars fought through lots of adversity, in particularly against my Flames and Colorado, while the lightning have crushed opponents with no issues. If Dallas’s offense gets cooking early and Tampa struggles to stop them, Dallas will have their first non-tainted Stanley Cup. Edit: Welp, safe to say I was wrong. That’s what I get for trusting a UrinatingTree prediction.
As a fellow Flames fan I'm not conflicted at all: go Stars! It's less embarrassing to lose in round 1 if it's against the SC champions, and I still hate the Lightning because of '04. Long live the memes
The way that the rounds and matchups were determined this year, the flames would've played Vegas during the second round (and they'd probably have to beat the Avs in the WCF if they somehow made it through the golden knights.
10:25 I completely Agree. Im a huge bruins fan and I've been absolutely disgusted by the way the fans have treated Rask. He has been so good for so long and we give him so much crap whenever he does anything that some people don't like. I respect his decision to leave the bubble because he had a reason to. We defiantly deserved to lose that series for many reason and that was one of them.
I'm not talking about trading him. I'm talking about the Bryce Harper treatment from the media and fans: "HE was the reason why they didn't win a championship before! Him not playing was a godsent for this team!" It's not like other players haven't MASSIVELY stepped up or anything like that.
I don't hate the Knights, but I can't stand DeBoer. Seeing him, after being given the keys to this Ferrari, wreck it worse than Heatley just feels good. Gallant deserved better treatment from McPhee and the front office.
@@nif8724 Bruins had no true elite goalie for the playoffs, they stood no chance for that reason in the first place. Any team put in Boston's situation would have the same thing happen.
My bracket prediction was Dallas vs Islanders. I was very close with the bracket, but I had Dallas winning the cup. They need to do it. I have a blooming onion on the line right now
I wish the haters guide to the nba finals comes out so I can hear tree say “CONGRATULATIONS YOUR TEAM STILL CANT MAKE IT PAST THE SECOND ROUND” to the clippers

Vigneault's teams always eventually take dives in the playoffs. That shit happened when he was in Vancouver. That shit happened with the Rangers. That shit will soon come to the Flyers, too.
The Mongols have upgraded their defense against siege equipment and have left carnage everywhere in their wake on the way to the finals. Now they get to face a borderline god. It's called the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Appreciate the love for my Islanders, Tree. We, too, are proud of them. Definitely erases a lot of the embarrassment the franchise has felt for years. Thanks for these hilarious recaps!

@@yourfriendlyneighborhoodsm4708 yeah but you gotta remember that most people wouldn't recognize Ride the Lightning if they played it in the arena, so the reference just wouldn't work

From an Avs fan: good luck, Stars - I underestimated you just like everyone else and you didn't even figure in my playoff predictions. Beat the Lightning and bring your coach a Cup!
It does make sense, though. Before the 2009-10 Super Bowl they were one of the most depressing teams in NFL history. And since then nothing has gone their way, from the Beastquake, to Alex Smith and Vernon Davis’ miracle drive, to an illegal forward pass in the last-effort shovel against Seattle, to the Bountygate suspensions and consecutive 7-9 seasons, to the Minneapolis Miracle, to the worst missed penalty in NFL history, and finally followed by yet another disappointing playoff appearance. It feels like they’re cursed
I noticed he still hasn't made a video about them winning. No ironic "Congratulations Lightning" to shit on them or make fun of them, let alone praise them. Could it be all of their critics have been finally silenced, including UT?
Well tree, looks like you whiffed it on this one. BIG TIME! Props and respect to the Stars, it was a very physical series and they had their highlights(Khudobin in Game 1), but beyond that, the D on their jerseys may as well have stood for "Dominated", "Decimated". Tampa wasn't going to be denied this year. Quite possibly next year as well.
@@jacksbee8809 hey, look on the bright side. You upset the 2 top western teams, and took tampa to 6. Be proud of what the stars have accomplished. They may be home for now, but they'll be back
@@u4yk no, the islanders literally didn't win a playoff series in that entire timespan,, the coyotes at least made it past the first round since they moved in 1996
Damn you Tree, damn you and your jinx magic. Congratulations to Tampa and all but the shit still hurts ya know. Not sure what happens to the Stars now, reload and try to make it back or was this a "last chance" thing like the 2011 Mavs season.
I’m a Pens fan like Tree, and I gotta say - I too am proud of the Isles and was really rooting for them. I never warmed up to Trotz when he was with the Caps (because of the team not him) but as the Islanders coach I’ve been able to see what a great guy he is and respect the hell out of what he’s done with that team. I’ve never been one to cheer for the Isles but I’m really happy for them and will root for them in the future when they’re not playing vs. Pittsburgh.
From a neutral standpoint I think this is quite a good match up for 2020. It’s not teams that have won recently but it’s not like it’s been that long for either team so no fan bases is going to miss out on watching their team lift the cup for the first time in years
Tree. I love all of the shoutouts you've been giving my school (Texas Tech) in your football videos, even if it's hasn't always been exactly positive. But then I'm trying to relax to a hockey video, and you give me my most painful sports memory. Why did you do this 😭
Fact: Game 2 of the 2015 Stanley Cup Final was the first game I took my girlfriend to. She didn't have an appreciation for it at the time, but she does now.
I always come for the recap, and stay for the finals preview. I think the format is perfect. I'm glad you always include the skip to XX.XX to satisfy others.
OK, EVERYONE, TELL ME RIGHT NOW! WHO IS WINNING THE STANLEY CUP THIS YEAR?! LIKE: Dallas Stars or COMMENT: Tampa Bay Lightning AKA the BOLTS (Badass Outstanding Lightspeed Thunder Squad)
Tree the videos aren't too long. I look forward to This Week in Sportsball and Haters Guides every year. You're really the best Sports RUclipsr out there
Congratulations to the Tampa Bay Lightning who made up for their embarrassing sweep last year in the first round to the Columbus Blue Jackets to win the Stanley Cup against the Dallas Stars.
You chose the UVA basketball comparison over the wings in 1995-96? Set reg season record for most wins, lost in the playoffs, then won the cup the next year. It's virtually the same.
As a Golden Knights before the Qualifiers and Playoffs started since this year, given that I never had a hockey team in my life, I told a Dallas Star fan who was at the same bar watching the game, I even told her this. Even though my team beat you tonight, I have to say first thank you for the shot you gave me and second, I have to say something good about the Dallas Stars. 'Miss, You're team scares me. This is going to be the toughest match for the Golden Knights. Your offense is the most feared offense before the Postseason started. This is the Golden Knights biggest and toughest team they have faced the entire playoffs. She was happy that I am a realistic Las Vegas Golden Knights Fan not a cocky or delusional sore losing Golden Knights Fan. Once after it was official that the Dallas Stars vs. Tampa Bay Lightning. As much as I don't want Dallas to win it all, honesty they have the most feared offense in the entire NHL playoffs, they will win it all. I don't see Tampa Bay lasting long. Dallas in 5. Enjoy the Stanley Cup Championship, bros and babes. Dallas will win in 5.
As a Boston fan, I am disgusted with our sports media. Tuukka's kid was sick and they made it about them.
Soda King exactly
and he still hasn't apologized, in fact he kept trying to defend himself over it.
Same here, I honestly hate around a 1/3rd of our fan base. From the Tuukka haters, to the rebuild whiners and how they castrate anyone for having an off game. The social media couch coaching around Boston is just awful.

Props and respect to the Stars, it was a very physical series and they had their highlights(Khudobin in Game 1), but beyond that, the D on their jerseys may as well have stood for "Dominated", "Decimated". Tampa wasn't going to be denied this year. Quite possibly next year as well.
Well tree’s successfully jinxed another team.
"WE'RE NOT GOING HOME!"
Na we’re going home... with the cup
@@AragornRespecter Got me in the first half not gonna to lie
Bro, I'm not even a stars fan and I got hyped when he said that
Ya we are :(
@@jacksbee8809 hey, look on the bright side. You upset the 2 top western teams, and took tampa to 6. Be proud of what the stars have accomplished. They may be home for now, but they'll be back
0:44 "congrats coyotes on your first playoff series victory in over....3000 days? Jesus"
Laughs in islanders fans (1993-2016)
That Islanders drought you reference if ECF appearances. They've made the playoffs far more frequently than the Coyotes.
@@u4yk no, the islanders literally didn't win a playoff series in that entire timespan,, the coyotes at least made it past the first round since they moved in 1996
Stars in 6. ⭐️ I’ve picked against them multiple times this postseason and they keep proving me wrong. It’s their time.
@@ArgentineFootballfan1978 you can’t “lol” on dobby. Dude DEMOLISHED the GKs offense.
Yeah I’m not sleeping on them either
As the luck runs out and lightning wins in 3
@@aroobism A NEW RECORD!!!
Damn you Tree, damn you and your jinx magic. Congratulations to Tampa and all but the shit still hurts ya know. Not sure what happens to the Stars now, reload and try to make it back or was this a "last chance" thing like the 2011 Mavs season.
ya, idk what we've gonna do. Like idk if we can make it back...
I’m a Pens fan like Tree, and I gotta say - I too am proud of the Isles and was really rooting for them. I never warmed up to Trotz when he was with the Caps (because of the team not him) but as the Islanders coach I’ve been able to see what a great guy he is and respect the hell out of what he’s done with that team. I’ve never been one to cheer for the Isles but I’m really happy for them and will root for them in the future when they’re not playing vs. Pittsburgh.
As much as I want Dallas to win, hearing ride the lightning in the background for the Tampa section made me fuckin excited.
From a neutral standpoint I think this is quite a good match up for 2020. It’s not teams that have won recently but it’s not like it’s been that long for either team so no fan bases is going to miss out on watching their team lift the cup for the first time in years
As soon as I heard "Ride the Lightning" I liked the video
Also Pantera.
@@crazyluigi6664 Not really a big Pantera fan but I will agree that it works for the Stars
Crazy Luigi what’s the pantera track he played
@@kevinbasta3557 It was from that one SpongeBob SquarePants episode regarding Sandy's hibernation period.
Crazy Luigi I actually meant the name
How are you so good at picking which team to jinx? Congrats Tampa.
*This video aged well.... like fine wine* 🍷
*Tampa Bay Lightning 2020 Stanley Cup Champs!!* 🏆⚡️
I have crippling depression now
this is not only the most southern Stanley Cup Final, but the most metal one as well.
Ahhh hockey. Mr. Tree I’m concerned you’ve been blackmailed by jerry Jones to stop talking about football.
Tree. I love all of the shoutouts you've been giving my school (Texas Tech) in your football videos, even if it's hasn't always been exactly positive. But then I'm trying to relax to a hockey video, and you give me my most painful sports memory. Why did you do this 😭
Tampa made the Final.
4 wins away from erasing the embarrassing moment.
4 losses from reliving it
Fact: Game 2 of the 2015 Stanley Cup Final was the first game I took my girlfriend to. She didn't have an appreciation for it at the time, but she does now.
Maxcrss that too.
It has been erased.
I always come for the recap, and stay for the finals preview. I think the format is perfect. I'm glad you always include the skip to XX.XX to satisfy others.
OK, EVERYONE, TELL ME RIGHT NOW! WHO IS WINNING THE STANLEY CUP THIS YEAR?!
LIKE: Dallas Stars
or
COMMENT: Tampa Bay Lightning AKA the BOLTS (Badass Outstanding Lightspeed Thunder Squad)
Let’s go BOLTS
Tampa better fking win.. I don't want to wait 5 years..
Go Bolts
Badass Outstanding Lightspeed Thunder Squad for the win!
honestly I love the length of these videos. They're a little something "extra" to look forward to before the finals
Me. A bolts fan. Patiently waiting for the next hockey video.
I love urinating tree’s long recaps. With Covid going on his videos are the highlights of my days
Can’t lie, the Isles commentary made me tear up a bit
A beautiful video by the tree on my birthday. Blessed be this day. May Lord Stanley continue to bless the finals till the very end. Amen
Can’t wait for the Stanley cup finally video
let me just say that i don’t know a thing about hockey but this guy is just so funny ill still watch it
They did it boys! The Tampa Bay Lightning are the Stanley Cup champions!!!
Tree the videos aren't too long. I look forward to This Week in Sportsball and Haters Guides every year. You're really the best Sports RUclipsr out there
Congratulations to the Tampa Bay Lightning who made up for their embarrassing sweep last year in the first round to the Columbus Blue Jackets to win the Stanley Cup against the Dallas Stars.
"I go too long with these recaps" NOPE! Juuuust right, UT. This shit gives me life, keep up the great work!
"I await the angry quebecers" ive never been so offended by something I 100% agree with
I appreciate the long videos dude. So glad to see your content back on the regular
1st the Lightning win the Stanley cup ...then Rays go to the WS and now the Bucs r in the SB
and the heat are going off, florida sports as a whole doing well
Respect Tampa Bay! Except maybe the bucs.
jasch yep
Ever since Brady joined the Bucs, it’s like the soul of Boston success went with him to Florida
And heat will make the finals (Gonna get swept but at least we made it)
You chose the UVA basketball comparison over the wings in 1995-96? Set reg season record for most wins, lost in the playoffs, then won the cup the next year. It's virtually the same.
Calgary Flames: The Houston Texans of the NHL
Nah they are better in the regualr season and havea more difficult path to the playoffs
Hey dude. Just wanna say that I love your videos and your long ranting about everything. Your commentary is the reason I tune in!!
i’m still waiting for congrats lightning (2020)
I don’t even watch hockey but these videos are entertaining as hell
This is the third final since 2002 and 2004 where both starting goalies are from Europe
Also both teams have Slovak and Czech players
Now Tampa's not chokers anymore
Hopefully the stench stays off for a while.
urinatingtree: welcome back to being the most depressing team Blues
Me a Sharks fan: I beg to differ
Leafs fans: Join the club
As a Golden Knights before the Qualifiers and Playoffs started since this year, given that I never had a hockey team in my life, I told a Dallas Star fan who was at the same bar watching the game, I even told her this. Even though my team beat you tonight, I have to say first thank you for the shot you gave me and second, I have to say something good about the Dallas Stars.
'Miss, You're team scares me. This is going to be the toughest match for the Golden Knights. Your offense is the most feared offense before the Postseason started. This is the Golden Knights biggest and toughest team they have faced the entire playoffs.
She was happy that I am a realistic Las Vegas Golden Knights Fan not a cocky or delusional sore losing Golden Knights Fan.
Once after it was official that the Dallas Stars vs. Tampa Bay Lightning. As much as I don't want Dallas to win it all, honesty they have the most feared offense in the entire NHL playoffs, they will win it all. I don't see Tampa Bay lasting long. Dallas in 5.
Enjoy the Stanley Cup Championship, bros and babes.
Dallas will win in 5.
When Tampa won the Cup, Kevin Shattenkirk noted that they had UVA’s scenario in mind throughout the playoffs
You’re recaps are the best! Don’t stop doing them!
CONGLATURATIONS URINATINGTREE, YOU ONCE AGAIN FAIL TO PREDICT ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
Goosebumps were running all over my body as Tree named off the Dallas roster. So many beasts on there. A real family.
Add the Dallas Stars to the list of teams Tree has jinxed.
Ayyye shoutout to Pavs on this video! Thanks Tree! Glad he’s killing it in Dallas
