There's is 17.5m over the cap in motion. I really hope Habs turn this series around. And I'm not a Habs fan. I just think it should be fairplay. It's like Habs can have Crosby and Ovie in this final. It's just absurd.. Have a nice day all!
That was one of the best games I’ve ever been to. Well done Tampa!!!

I was fortunate enough to attend this game. The atmosphere is electric! My ears were still ringing even when I went to bed later that night.
Watching Anderson rip off a helmet at the start of the game not called, then it called on Tampa later..
Taking off a helmet isn’t a penalty. I think the Tampa penalty layer in the game was for roughing. He gave Gallagher a shot to the face.
@@politicalbandwagon4989 Rule changed this year when they made players leave the ice if their helmet comes off. Also came with a penalty for removing someone’s helmet.
@@Dowork147 Really? I see players do that all the time. I think it’s a penalty for taking your own helmet off.
yep.
I’m indifferent in general but it would be cool to see Pat Maroon get three straight cups.
Me too ⚡⚡⚡
Announcers just hate to complement Tampa Bay.
@John Johnson They are the overwhelming favorites. Analysts and casters are usually going to talk more about the underdogs.

Long way to go, but Tampa looked like they've been there before... Montreal looked like they hadn't.

Sergachev should get fined easily. No way the league shouldn’t look at that. He tackles him onto the ice without a helmet on I mean cmon
Fined for what? Gally tried to Judo flip Sergy. He failed. Should have taken a physics course and learned about leverage. Gravity did the rest.
