The Chicago Blackhawks are 2015 Stanley Cup Champions.

A whole lot of happy humans in the windy city tonight. Me included. Well done!

[KamaAina]

1. Yes!!

"Slap Shot" was supposed to be a comedy, not a documentary, dammit!

2. YEAH THEY ARE! !!

YEAH WE ARE!

I can hear the fireworks and hoots and hollers all over!

[Renew Deal]

3. Congrats to the Blackhawks and their fans

4. Fireworks in Lincoln Square!

We're all busting!

The only downside, is now we have to watch baseball until the Bears kick off.

5. Congrats!

This Leafs fan was pulling for Chicago, since (sadly) looong before the end of the regular season.



And vibes for Stan Mikita, whom I just read today, has become very much afflicted with Dementia as of late and doesn't even know or understand the win tonight.

7. Great for the Hawks, too bad about Stan.

Stash was not only a great player, but also a tremendous individual.
He did a lot of work with hearing impaired youth hockey.

I'm prejudiced as Stan gave me a personalized game stick from his last season

8. Yeah, poor Stosh!

He sure went downhill quickly. Practically over night.

Stan has always been my favorite Blackhawks. I got to meet him many years ago. Such a nice, down-to-earth guy! (As were the other teammates of his that I've gotten to meet.) This breaks my heart.

6. yes indeed!

Had travel nightmares yesterday, but got home in time for the handshake. And about 4 hours of watching highlights and interviews...

9. You were far from alone in that.

Poor Michal Rozsival was returning from Florida and got delayed. He made it back just after his teammates hoisted the cup, which was also late. Damn shame. Trevor van Riemsdyk's brothers made it in time to see the last 8 minutes of the game. Poor James. He's played 400+ games, and no Cup. His little brother plays 22, and the rest is history.
