He touched it!!

Who give's a shit if he touched it! I guess if they were playing in Mordor, where magic and superstitions ran rampant, And were real, then I would be worried! This is a team sport and the better team will win. But I guess it's something to talk about until saturday!

You gotta wonder if he planned it. Lindros refused to touch it and the Flyers got steamrolled in 97. Probably figured he couldn't do worse.

FUCK LINDROS!!!!!





I mean.....yeah.

I don't think so but I could be wrong.

nah, you're probably right. I just swear I remember hearing talk about one of the reason Crosby touched it last year was because he didn't the year before and Lidstrom did and everyone saw how that turned out. I just can't remeber if Nick touched it or not....my memory sucks

The way the Flyers got there wan't normal. It only fits that Richards did the out of the norm thing.

Nick didn't touch it...that's just crazy talk.

According to ESPN.com, since 2001, teams that have left the trophy alone have won the Cup four times and those who have touched it have lost four times.

LOL You could have just said "Hey dumbass! Only when the team you root for is in the finals!"

Nik clearly wanted nothing to do with it.

The funniest was Lindros:

Looks like he thinks the head of the family dog is in there.

Lidstrom put his hand suggestively close to the trophy in 2008, however since he made sure to stay away in 2009 I want to say he didn't touch it in 2008. I remember a long debate in '08 about whether or not Lidstrom touched it.
