Statistically, this was Stamkos' best playoff so :noidea:

Even if he disappeared in the last three games he had 4 goals and 6 points in the first 4 games.

I just think there's something about his game that's been lost because of the laundry list of pain.

Had OV put those stats up he'd be villafied as a choker just sayin

One reflection on this series... Jon Cooper seems like a sterling human being and great guy to have a beer with to boot. Really big fan of his, eh.

Yeah, there's very little to dislike about Tampa Bay, Cooper by all accounts is a great guy as is associate coach Rick Bowness. Only player on the team that I really don't like would be Kunitz.

/Of course, I'm still a little bitter about 2004.

Wow, Nick Backstrom had 3 points in his last 2 games of the series with this clearly broken finger.

Hockey players are warriors.

Todd Richards is a good guy too.

Not that great of a head coach, but a really nice guy nonetheless.

Sorry if mentioned, just wanted to pile on Stamkos a bit more, here's his past 10 games when facing elimination. Woof

So you're saying he should have signed in Toronto?
