Red Wings fan here, but I am happy, not only for Alex (as the best player of this era, he's well overdue), but for the Capitals franchise as a whole. For all of the great players that have passed through their ranks since 1974. This poor franchise only won 8 games in its first season. Then they suffered through a seven-period game only to come out on the wrong end of it in 1987. They were swept in four straight games by my Wings in 1998. Beyond that, they came up short so many times, so I am glad that they've finally got the Cup.
Flyers Fan here. Congrats to the CAPS and all their fans! Glad that you're bringing the CUP to DC. Looking forward to playing the Champs next year, and once again, Congratulations!
If there is any sports franchise that deserves it more than anything out of the 4 major sports played in North America, it is the Washington Capitals. Since they first started becoming a winning team in the early 80's and most of the 90's and 2010's, they only made it past the 2nd round twice (the 90 team made it to the 3rd round and the 98 team made it to the finals) & it must feel so good and vindicated, especially for Ovie. If there is any individual that deserves It, it his him. I am a Leaf fan but I am so happy for the Capitals bc I have relatives in the Baltimore and DC area. Congratulations!
What an incredible Stanley Cup it has been!! Congrats go out to the Capitals, Alex Ovechkin, and the rest of the team!! It was extremely generous and thoughtful of the owner of the Capitals for flying all of the team's family to Vegas!! That is true leadership, and shows true character and family values!! I have never heard of any professional sports team owner paying all expenses for their families to be there!! I can't say enough about him!! Again, congrats to the Caps from a life-long Bruins fan!! There's no other team in the NHL that deserved to win Lord Stanley's Cup than the Caps!!
Way to Go Caps! Glad that Ovi will finally get his name on the cup!The Caps players all seem to be classy as well as talented.No whining or complaining ,just playing as a TEAM!Rare thing in sports nowadays.To you Caps fans,I say congratulations you deserved and earned it.Great to see No rioting,etc during the celebrations.Just fans enjoying the moment.Hope you guys can do it again.Enjoy this time,you never know when or if the Cup will be yours again,But I think it will! From a Red Wings Fan. PS -Love the Caps,Too!And to you Vegas Fans you also showed class in the Caps Win.Your team lost,But you're not losers and neither is your team.You Have a good team,and I'm sure they will be cup champs one day.
It is nice to see Ovi finally lifting the Stanley Cup, a huge congratulations to him and the Capitals. The Golden Knights may well of fallen slightly short of the line this time, but what a first season they have had, they should also be very proud of themselves. From a Rangers fan.
Both teams had an exceptional season. I am glad Ovi finally won. It is so sad to see awesome players go a whole career without a cup final. Good for him. From a Flyer fan. Don't worry. I am a nice Flyer fan. hehehe.
Completely agree with you my friend, both teams have played some amazing hockey at times this season. I was really hoping you guys knocked the Penguins out to be honest, just wasn't meant to be. Good luck for next season, it promises to be a good one (possibly not for my team though haha).
Phil McGroin the penguins have all the pieces they need. They have for quite a while. The flyers have struggled since the Blackhawks finals. They are finally looking decent again to some degree.
Congrats to the Caps,their fans but most of all Ovie. As a Hawk fan I was always glad he was in the east and we didn't have to play him. This win was well deserved by all. Is that noise I hear the cash register drawer opening wide for John Carlson? What a player he is.
dbn52 he will be vary interesting indeed. There are 3 top notch D that will be getting huge. E. Karlson from The zeros. Drew from LA. and this Carlson. We in Toronto need to chase any one of these guys and we will win it next and be in the top class year after year for the next decade. Interesting enough. EK shaved his face after they were eliminated. (Tor team rule clean shave) And picked up the puck. Drew is from London. And would love to play and win for TML. Carlson played for the London Knights.
hopefully they keep pelly and kempny who both will be looking for a raise but if they do choose to keep them which they most likely will allbeit for more than they are worth then the band aka main 22 skaters and 2 main goalies and coach will all be back..except for maybe carlson who was on the ice longest this postseason for them and 5th in points...he would be a huge loss and it wouldn't be right..pay the man ...keep the man..you need his heart...
Anyone else remember when LeBron won the championship in 2016 with cleaveland and said "I finally did it. I said I would come back to Cleveland and win them a championship." making it all about him that the team won the championship. You will never hear the word "I" come out of any hockey players mouth when they win the Stanley cup. Ovi has been in the league for 13 years and finally won his first cup. The first things he said "im happy for the fans and my team mates". doesn't even mention himself. You would think after 13 years he would say "it finally happened" or something like that, but he kept it as a team achievement with no self acknowledgment. Such humility from a first time winner.
Welcome to the great game of hockey 😎 the ULTIMATE team sport. Nothing against LeBron he’s a legend but I n basketball you can win a bunch of games with 1 or 2 superstars who can drill crazy buckets, but in hockey having a bunch of superstars doesn’t cut it - look at the Edmonton Oilers. In hockey you really need a TEAM all 20 guys to contribute
billy bugaloo He’s far from garbage. He’s a role player. Clearly a great component to help a team be successful. He was 4th in the NHL in Faceoff Win Percentage at 58.5% (source: puckbase.com)
Michael Rojas it’s more of ignorance than stupidity. Could be a new hockey fan and I just wanted to clarify how Jay Beagle was crucial to every team he played for
None of the teams I picked ended up in the Cup... I had Tampa & Winnipeg both failed miserably... After all this time Ovie finally gets his Cup & I'm happy for him... long overdue wouldn't you say?
Honestly I feel like Lars Eller is the unspoken hero for the caps, yeah he didn’t’t put up mad points like Ovi, Kuzy, Backstrom, and Oshie, but when he did get his goals and assists, they were crucial to get Washington back in the game, to give them the lead in games, or to put the games out of reach for the opposite team, same this with DSP.
Just wanted to say I us do to hate ovechkin but since you changed and embraced North American culture and you are such a nice guy I cheered all year for you to win. Great job and good luck in the future
Here's my suggestion to all of those making negative comments on certain players. STOP!! If you can't say something nice about the organization, players, or their families, just refrain and don't post at all. Let the Caps enjoy the moment, and remember, Hockey is a team game, no matter what level it's played at. Some players don't have all of the necessary skills to get drafted by an NHL team. Some have potential, but need further development in lower leagues before moving up the ladder. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. But, the negative comments need to stop. Just learn to appreciate the fantastic playoffs and Stanley Cup win the Caps have provided by their "never quit" mentality.
The Vegas fans were great. Stayed well after to watch Caps celebrate. Last year those lousy Nashville fans stuck around long enough to boo Bettman then left crying before the Cup was hoisted
Absolutely no doubt that Ovi has been the best player for the Capitals, but he hasn't carried them. A good team wins the cup and that's what Washington was. They got good depth scoring from people like Connolly, DSP, Burakovsky, Eller. Ovi was the best player in the series giving 110% effort. Backstrom and Oshie were no short of excellent. Kuznetsov was amazing and so was Holtby. That save on Tuch may have been the difference. John Carlson lead the blue line. Ovi is a one of a kind player, but he's not carrying the team.
SteelCity1981 Sorry, but one player can’t carry a team to success in the NHL. It takes an entire team who is committed to each and the game unlike the NBA.
To all Washington, greetings from Russia! We respect and love you! Not looking at your politicians. You cheered for your team and we are for our guys, in your team. There are criteria that bring peoples together, but do not share them.
Twistn Jays lol, why should i be so absolute? Saying Stanley Cup is hardest to win in all sport is kinda stupid thing to say. I rather say "of all sport there is, Stanley Cup is one of the hardest to win".
kaynation I’ll be getting fired from my job because I’m going and I’m having a family emergency which consist of my boys being so sick cuz they rocked the red too hard !!
Now the nation's capital is complete. Mr. Ovechkin, now you can show your children the results of winning the cup. Hall of Fame will be waiting for you.
overshadowed by a low class move ,possibly illegal, for caps to not sell tickets to anyone for last home game unless they had a washington, Maryland or Virginia address. what if vegas did that to caps fans. bush league. Bettman should investigate and fine them..but he wont because he doesn t have a set of balls.
Todd Murphy yeah, can you please back up that statement?!? Ovechkin takes _very_ few dirty penalties. Another one of the *many* areas he outshines his rival; Sidney Crosby.
Red Wings fan here, but I am happy, not only for Alex (as the best player of this era, he's well overdue), but for the Capitals franchise as a whole.

Regardless of team, witnessing such uncontrollable happiness from a bearded group of mentally tough men never gets old for me.
Flyers Fan here. Congrats to the CAPS and all their fans! Glad that you're bringing the CUP to DC. Looking forward to playing the Champs next year, and once again, Congratulations!
I'm happy for Ovi! Finally he got what he deserved!
Flyers fan here. So happy for ALL of them. Especially Ovi, he deserved this victory.
Smith-Pelly’s emotional moment? He was literally crying with his mother.

Chills still running down my spine after this win. I will forever this cherish this Stanley Cup win for the rest of my life. #ALLCAPS
Carlson reaction to seeing his Son 😂😂😂😂 BUBBA!!! Priceless
Great job, guys! Congratulations!

rsalz it's a pretty typical trend among hockey players

roy canuck All 22. You forgot the goalies.
Connor Welcher 20 guys bro. 4 lines of forwards = 12. 3 defense pairings = 6. Total of 18. Goalies +2 more guys = 20 😂👌
roy canuck Oh sorry. I was thinking about 5 skaters always on the ice and 4 lines. So I thought 5×4=20. Then I added the goalie.
Thank you for Sharing
First the Caps then the Blues.
Crazy, but so happy they both won, their fan bases have waited such a long time.
Jay Beagle is the first player in history to win a Kelly Cup, Calder Cup, and Stanley Cup
CJ Valerian hes garbage
billy bugaloo He’s far from garbage. He’s a role player. Clearly a great component to help a team be successful. He was 4th in the NHL in Faceoff Win Percentage at 58.5% (source: puckbase.com)
CJ Valerian ignore stupidity
Michael Rojas it’s more of ignorance than stupidity. Could be a new hockey fan and I just wanted to clarify how Jay Beagle was crucial to every team he played for
CJ Valerian oh course he just won the cup lol
To down vote this...? I question your humanity!
SOUR PATCH they’re VGK fans
Not a Caps fan, but you guys kicked ass! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!
Taffy Den what team do you support mine is the wild
TYVM!!!!
jpk 0721 what's that
Thank you very much :D
Pittsburgh, Winnipeg and Vegas lol
For all Russian people it is also a very pleasant victory. Here we agree with you.
None of the teams I picked ended up in the Cup... I had Tampa & Winnipeg both failed miserably... After all this time Ovie finally gets his Cup & I'm happy for him... long overdue wouldn't you say?
class!!!
Let's! Go! Caps!
its nebmvef felt so good to be a Caps fan
Honestly I feel like Lars Eller is the unspoken hero for the caps, yeah he didn’t’t put up mad points like Ovi, Kuzy, Backstrom, and Oshie, but when he did get his goals and assists, they were crucial to get Washington back in the game, to give them the lead in games, or to put the games out of reach for the opposite team, same this with DSP.
Congrats! С победой!
I cant believe they won yesterday night. I am impress of it
I’m happy for me
Kick Ass! WC
Couldn't help but root for the Caps. I mean OVE and love me some Oshie. From a Devils fan.
Just wanted to say I us do to hate ovechkin but since you changed and embraced North American culture and you are such a nice guy I cheered all year for you to win. Great job and good luck in the future
They deserved it they were so dominant in the playoffs and ovi played the best hockey he's ever played.
Here's my suggestion to all of those making negative comments on certain players. STOP!!

Летс ГОУ Кепс ,энд я рад за наших парней ! Виват Россия!!!!!
ovi deserves it, he's been carrying the caps on his back for many years.
No one player has ever carried a team in the NHL. Never! Save that phrase for the NBA.
+Todd Murphy Tom brady
Absolutely no doubt that Ovi has been the best player for the Capitals, but he hasn't carried them. A good team wins the cup and that's what Washington was.

In the NBA, have 3-4 all star players = championship
John Carlson, John Tavares...Buffalo Loves you, See you soon
To all Washington, greetings from Russia! We respect and love you! Not looking at your politicians. You cheered for your team and we are for our guys, in your team. There are criteria that bring peoples together, but do not share them.
I feel sorry for mike green. He should be with capitals right now.
true!
I wish we couldve done it with Arlzner and Schmidt as well
dont forget Johansson!
Fuck em, aside from Schmidt they wanted to be greedy by asking for too much money.
I think we can all agree that the best thing for our def was Shattenkirk signing with the rangers
Mr Owner fix the Wizards roster also
Stanley cup is the hardest cup to win in the history of all professional sports.
Michel nguyen nope
Michel nguyen lmaooo
Then you two please 🙏🏼 tell me what is harder and why?.. This'll be good.
Twistn Jays lol, why should i be so absolute? Saying Stanley Cup is hardest to win in all sport is kinda stupid thing to say. I rather say "of all sport there is, Stanley Cup is one of the hardest to win".
Kuro Neko Nyaa it's a very simple question.. In your opinion what would be the hardest to win?
What with the lone Knights fans who stayed for this??
Who else is going to the parade on Tuesday 11 AM 😀🤗🏆
kaynation I’ll be getting fired from my job because I’m going and I’m having a family emergency which consist of my boys being so sick cuz they rocked the red too hard !!
I wish. I'm stuck with work in BC Canada and I'm green with envy..
there was 8 canadians on the caps this year
I love America Hockey! Where Russians and Canadians compete to win the Sir Frederick Arthur Stanley of England Cup.
except it's not America Hockey!
stankley cup
Wtf it’s not just Russians and canadiens. There are Americans too, you know.
So glad Beags got to lift the cup
Now the nation's capital is complete. Mr. Ovechkin, now you can show your children the results of winning the cup. Hall of Fame will be waiting for you.
О МАЙ ГОТ, НЕ УЖЕЛИ В САМОМ ДЕЛЕ!КУБОК У НАШИХ ТРИО!
don't like the Caps at all, but glad OV was finally able to accomplish a championship!!

overshadowed by a low class move ,possibly illegal, for caps to not sell tickets to anyone for last home game unless they had a washington, Maryland or Virginia address. what if vegas did that to caps fans. bush league. Bettman should investigate and fine them..but he wont because he doesn t have a set of balls.
teams actually do that all the time. Not at all illegal. stop crying lou
Vegas wouldn't even be able to fill half of the arena. The majority of fans attending games are tourists.
Tom Wilson's name on The Cup. A shame.
Greg Herman Guy earned it. Don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
Greg Herman your numb
Greg Herman you were a shame the moment you came on this earth. so?
I remember OVI with the tinted visor back then
When he was brutal, spitting in other players faces and checking them from behind into the boards. He was a very dirty player but changed.
Todd Murphy I'm a caps fan and have watched all his games, please show proof of him doing any of these because as a matter of fact, he hasn't
Todd Murphy yeah, can you please back up that statement?!? Ovechkin takes _very_ few dirty penalties. Another one of the *many* areas he outshines his rival; Sidney Crosby.
That's when he was drinking before the games! Cleaned it up
