I just had to share these wonderful videos. Just when you think you can’t get a lump in your throat anymore – that you are lumped out, along comes the video that The Mouth made over at Crowned Royal. What a fantastic job! This rivals the pros and this has more heart:
The next one is from Staples and was played on the Jumbotron pre-games during the playoffs. It was really effective seeing the players as children to adults playing the game they love. The blackout section in the middle for a few seconds then records the after pictures of winning the Stanley Cup. Great for those of you who could not make the games. Hopefully you can see what we felt a bit as our players came out on the ice and the aftermath of the win.
I can’t embed the video like the above due to it being from NHL, but you can click on the link and go to Hammond’s site where he has it as well as a replay from the rally:

And a little one of mine that you can’t even hear or see that well, but it gives you a sense of what it felt like when they brought the cup out to the ice. And try to ignore the guy with the hand in my view for a few seconds there.
I just do not want to stop partying!!! I’m going to revel in this for the whole summer!
Go Kings!

Thanks for these. I’ll never, ever get tired of watching clips like this. It’s been a week and I still can’t believe what took place, even when I watching things like this. Keep thinking I’ll wake up and it’s all been a dream. This bunch of guys worked so hard to win these games and then to see the looks on their faces……Like Sutter said “It’s too bad none of us could see the faces of the one’s on the bench as that clock ticked down.” I know it would have been beautiful, knowing what was about to happen.

I think its really starting to sink in for me. I’m very excited and it seems real. I woke up this morning and thought :holy shit we won the cup!” right out of the blue! LOL, its like it just happened.
I think we are going to have a lot of fun reliving it this summer and next season will be a whole new experience for us.
Hmmm…seems like there should be some kind of clip of the guys on the bench pre win. we probably haven’t come across it yet.

That game winning puck just has to turn up somewhere. Not many would pull that Pronger trick.
Uh, not that they don’t deserve it but geez, they have to sober up sometime.
Looking forward to Awards tomorrow night and really hoping if Quick gets called up there, he’s in better shape than he was at the Rally. From all I’ve been able to find out and see, these boys been on pardy hardy mode since the nite of that last game.

Got to thinking about something. This is the first off season that I haven’t hoped they’d replace so and so on the team. That I haven’t wished they’d acquire so and so.
In otherwords. I’ll be perfectly content if there’s no changes to this team by next season. Happy with the coach, the team, the outcome….just plain happy.

Agree! Lol, we have nothing to complain about. I want everyone to just stay the same and come back ready to play end of summer.
And Pens – I wonder if they will resign him. I hope so.

Agree about re-signing Penner. He had a lot ot overcome this season and he did a real good job of doing just that. His size in front of the net has become a pleasure to watch. F/O’s are a really important part of the game and Stoll is a master of that.
NO CHANGE, NO CHANGE.
