    Congrats. Not sure if i would call them a dynasty, but close. If you call them a dynasty I guess ou would have to call the San Francisco Giants a dynasty then?

    I remember when the Phillies won the World Series and they had a party at the Linc. It wasn't worth it. someone gave me their free ticket and I couldn't even get close to the Linc, just stayed outside the ballpark and partied.

    I'd def call them a dynasty, especially in this sport. Hardest trophy to win. But I could also see why someone wouldn't.

    Hockey is a lot different than other sports. The cap space in hockey makes it almost impossible for back to back or multiple championships in a short period of time.

    I think the SI cover with "Modern Dynasty" sums it pretty well. With the hard cap, winning 3 in 6 years is a dynasty. But I can see why some people wouldn't call it that since they haven't won any back to back. We'll see next year!

    This coming from a BRUINS fan from 1971....CONGRATULATIONS. I predicted long ago the Hawks were going to win the Cup and they did so @ home after 70 years.

    Regarding dynasty: no question. Two Cups in four years is nuts. Three in six years? Fucking unreal. As a Penguins fan that has had high expectations for years...is there a more intense word for jealousy?

    Stop worrying about what other people are saying and just enjoy it. BTW, I never heard anyone say anything about the other 2 cups not being legit.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    So nothing but baseball for the next 2.5 months until football starts. The white sox are pretty much unwatchable at this point. What the fuck am I supposed to do now???
