I did it! Found an article linking Jurassic World and the Stanley Cup final!

Quote:

A prime example of this scenario occurred with Ultron. It seemed as though the first Avengers would have served as the quintessential comp for Ultron — until the sequel smacked into the punching gloves of the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight during the first weekend of May. The lack of die-hard sporting events this weekend worked to Jurassic World‘s advantage: It was culturally the only event that Americans wanted to see. Sunday night’s Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers, despite its stellar 20.5M viewers, would have been more of threat if it was a New York/Boston vs. Los Angeles faceoff, per B.O. pundits. Ditto, for Saturday’s Stanley Cup Final battle between the Chicago Blackhawks and Tampa Bay Lightning — too regional to disrupt the Indominus Rex.

So what's Q gonna get on his next contract now with what Babs got? Personally I think Babs is a better coach cause I remember the years of St Louis and Colorado and how Q couldn't win the big game but he's done a job with this team. Inherited a lot of talent but has been able to keep it on task with a lot of changes over the years. He is not gonna get 8 years unless Chicago is as dumb as TO but gonna get paid. If he gets at least one more long playoff run in (win or lose) 7mil a year?

He is rock solid and I would hate to loose him but the math does not work for me, trading him away frees up cap space. Honestly, I think he'd be a perfect fit for the Rangers.

Think the Flyers are so low because of the new coach.

Not saying I wouldn't love to have him here, but I am not sure we need more D at this point. Also, not sure how we can afford to fit him in with our own cap space issues.

Yeah someone(s) have to go and he has value. A Detroit article listed him as a potential trade target. I'd take him to play on their second pairing. He ain't going to the Rangers unless we are getting rid of the cap next year.

The Rangers are probably the last team Seabrook would go to

Hagelin is who worries me the most leaving. He can get a pretty penny on the market.

Think the rest will re-sign. Although Stepan was an issue last time and missed training camp because of it. Going to be interesting to see how they navigate the off season. Need to figure out how to keep all the pieces together or replace them with "better" pieces for cheaper.

Oh I know but he is one of those rare defenders who is capable of playing an Al MacGinnis type game. He is both a shut down defender but can sit on the point and laser beam slapshots - he scored in the finals with a one timer that came off his stick like a guided missile and was as accurate as a Greg Maddux pitch.

I forgot he was even a player! Had no idea you guys were still paying him! :lol

I remember when he refused to play for Ottawa or something along those lines.

Oh my god. So, things finally settling down here, I don't feel like I'm going to die quite as much now.

Last night as the 2nd drunkest I've probably ever been. Right behind the 2013 Cup which resulted in me bleeding out of my face onto my white Dave Bolland sweater. Things got beyond crazy. I'm not sure where Mike (bonzo) was, if he was downtown, but it was absolute mayhem. This city has embraced the Blackhawks like none other. EVERYONE is a Hawks fan.

This is 100% a true story (according to my friends, I don't remember), but I apparently made out with some hot chick at the bar, and then her hot mom almost right after. I don't remember this at all, but it has been told to me by multiple different people last night that I was dancing with some girl, and then made out with her, then went over to her mom, and started making out with her. Go Hawks.

Duncan Keith first defenseman to score the Stanley Cup GWG and win the Conn Smythe since Bobby Orr.

Jonathan Toews first person to captain a team to 3 Cups before turning 28 since Wayne Gretzky.

So you made out with Q's daughter AND his wife? Allow me to buy you a Zima, sir!

Conn Smyth is a bitch for defenders to get, if memory serves only Neidermayer and Lidstrom have won it in the salary cap era.

Saw that about Toews, pretty good company. :)

Scott Stevens won it as well. That's more impressive cause he didn't score like the other 3.

Yep. He sat out for Ottawa and our boy Milbury after the season decided to traded Chara and the #1 overall pick (Spezza) for Yashin. Now while Yashin was very good for a few seasons and was helpful in a rebirth for 02-03, Milbury obviously lost that trade big time.

Todd Nelson going to be the head coach of the Griffins. I didn't know he played for them back in the day so that makes sense.

Thanks for the offer but no. lol As long as Snider lets Hextall actually do his job and doesn't get antsy, they should be ok.
