It's weird, part of me can buy Letang getting votes, part of me can't (over Murray at least). That is a very close vote though. Don't think I've ever seen the breakdown for one b/c they're usually not close.

I'll agree they were playing the best at the end. Possession and some advanced stats show Murray didn't really have to break much of a sweat in ECF or the Finals. That's why I was saying relatively he was a little more mediocre for those two series. Hard sell on goalies playing fantastic...

Can't make this shit up.

Basically Rangers MO last two years, no?

I have to imagine LF plays some important role in the battle to come. He really was set up to be a major mover and shaker behind the scenes along with Varys, but has done all of jack shit this season. Even his tip to Sansa about Blackfish having a army was completely nullified by Jaime telling...

Damn, carolina making moves. Much like Philly, lot of good youth down there now.

Can buy it. Did anyone ever ask Beric what he has seen? I can't remember. I still think he feels like getting killed was him failing, and he hasn't come to terms with that, more so than being afraid of death. If he was afraid of it, it wouldn't make much sense to be leading an undermanned...

I did actually post a response to earlier before reading below. Still all mostly conjecture other than Jon stating he didn't see/remember anything from after he died and our clip from the preview of him asking Melisandre not to bring him back if he dies again. Personally I think it's less a...

I take issue with calling them the best team. They played well enough to have a chance, and they took advantage of it. If Murray from ECF and Finals shows up in our series though, I think you lose in 5.

In the preview for next week, they showed him telling the Red Priestess to not bring him back if he falls. He may be emotionally affected at having seen nothing when he died, but clearly he isn't that afraid of it if he's willing to not come back.

Astro going to Astro on Jon's fighting ability. No one is saying he's the greatest warrior in the world, but they've definitely been feeding his power level so you regard him as one of the better warriors in the realm. No fear of death now, etc. If it comes down to 1v1 with Ramsay, Jon will...

Don't get all the hate for this season. Yeah, some of this stuff has felt rushed, but can totally forgive that with how plodding along the plot has been at times for certain areas/characters. Hoping Dany can finally get to Westeros with the dragons by the end of the season, Arya plot finally...

Yeah Grimm, I agree. It was either Kessel or Murray in my eyes. Maybe they didn't want to give it to Kessel because they didn't want to drive the dagger too deep to Toronto. Fuck my life, both times Sid's Pens beat us in the playoffs, they've gone on to win the Cup. Sports aren't fair.

This, Jaime does such a good job of portraying this from time to time as well. When he was looking at the White Book a couple of seasons ago, and noted there wasn't many great deeds written about him, basically any conversation he has with Brienne. It's a real slow burn, but the eventual face...

This, I'm not disagreeing with Convo that they couldn't let him walk, but dude is not worth that money.

You could make the argument that no one really stood out that much more from everyone else to be the clear choice...although pretty clear that Murray and Kessel at least (and could debate on Malkin) played better and were more important than Sid to them winning the Cup. It was a lifetime...

Most undeserving Conn Smythe I've seen in awhile. But you knew they were going to give it to him as a lifetime legacy award.

I've never really gotten the feeling Jaime wants Brienne like that. Vice-versa? Definitely. But would be a shame to break up the perfection that is Brienne and Tormund.

Or just equal measure nerds doing their thing. Too much thinking going on on some of this shit.

This isn't really true, Edmure actually gave a pretty good scene to us, when otherwise he's been mere fluff for us to laugh at for not being able to shoot a flaming arrow, and just a plot point for the Red Wedding. Also Jaime once again showing his strange blend of blind devotion to Cersei...

This. Can't believe people disliked this week. Aside from Arya story being...a long fucking wait for not much payoff (although I feel like we haven't seen the last of JH), the plodding, boring shit stories are getting tied up. Dany coming back means they can finally take care of the Mereen...

Serious triggered. Arya story line could have been better, but it finally ends that shit and gets her back to where she should be for the end game. Everyone's dreams of her being a Faceless Wo/Man and offing Cersei were fucking stupid anyways. Clegane joining the Brotherhood made sense...

Ravens killing it in the 1st round like always.

Do they only get faces by people dying at the House there? Just wondering if perhaps JH recovered Syrio's face somehow after he was killed. Although unless Arya is present when he would come out in Syrio's shape against the Waif, there really wouldn't be any point to that line of thought. I...

Eagles have more to worry about than their QB decision. Nelson Agholor accused of sexual assault

I'm kind of at the point where I'd rather just let the story be a story instead of worrying about the ecology of the Iron Islands and whether it could support the number (or any) of trees needed to fashion "a thousand" ships.' Watching Tenks and Itlan go at it like

RIP Gordie. Sad day in hockey.

Tonight Pavelski breaks out and pots 2, and the Sharks gut out a 4-3 win to send it back to San Jose.

I just don't see Kessel winning it with Sid and Geno taking away votes in some voters minds. Not when Murray is a rookie who's on the verge of going 15-5 in the playoffs with around a 2.00 GAA and north of a .925 sv%. The optics of them putting in Fleury only to go down 3-2 to defending EC...

Fuck me I hope the Sharks pull off a miracle. Murray shoe in for Conn Smythe you'd have to think.

Are people really complaining we didn't have to sit through 4 weeks of Jon/Sansa/Davos walking around the North?

Next week going to be good.

CLEGANEBOWL ALMOST 100% CERTAINTY

It SHOULD be the axis point...but the way they've dragged out the current KL story line it really doesn't seem to be. Love the High Sparrow actor, but the way they've written Jaime the last two seasons he's been near worthless. Perhaps him getting kicked out of the Kingsguard and back on his...

BENJEN

You post about it pretty regularly too. Good luck btw, pulling heavily for Joel Ward.

Go Sharks.

Seems pretty stiff considering it was for at most 5 minutes.

Ravens and Harbaugh fined and Ravens lose week of OTA's for violation of putting rookies in full pads. Damn.
