that has to be the stupidest thing i have heard today...

TAMPA BY WINS!!!

Big congrats to Tampa Bay they deserve it. They just had more left in the tank in the last 2 games.

I'm sad Calgary didn't win, they played thier hearts out.... that was crushing :(

Face it, Calgary didn't show up for the first 2 periods. If they can't solve a team whom they've played for 6 games before going into this one, than they don't deserve to win. Don't get me wrong, they deserved to win it just as much as Tampa. But Tampa came out better and Andreychuck deserves this more than a team who barely made the playoffs for the past 10 years.

It's about who wants to win the Cup. I wanted the Cup to come back to Canada but only for that reason. Calgary simply couldn't match up against the better team: Tampa. Besides, it's about time Tampa won the Stanley Cup.

Ease up man. Also, there's some doubt as to whether or not Canadians invented hockey..but this is besides the point.

:(

Last 10 minutes were INTENSE.

Well Tampa wanted it more, they played better than the Flames the first 50 mins...and Khabibulin was really good, though I really think Kipper was let down by the defense, especially on the first goal. It sucks.

I still think Calgary played awesome to make it this far, no one thought they could.

@ RenaFuse: Shut The **** Up! You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

ya i got that from someone, but ya over all it really was a good seires and calgary was doing there best in along time gg to all and next year were gona own it all, and atleast we made it to the final game :p

I'm sick and tired of this Canadian VS USA BS, I just heard from a friend who calls me up all mad saying

the Ref's are all pro USA.

Face it Calgary played Rough & Tough & Dirty and they played their hearts out, but you could see they got demoralized when it was 2-0 Tampa, then they (calgary) got their sprak back once they scored, but then they had to play dirty and get a boarding penalty.

The only reason Calgary beat Vancouver too begin with is because Calgary played dirty, this is why I was going for Tampa Bay, just because it was against Calgary.

If it were any other team against the Flames I'd be going for them too, I have a dislike for Calgary.

I dont believe in this the Stanley Cup belongs in Canada crap.

It belongs to the team that wins it, it has nothing to do with ratings or whatever, just the Stanley Cup is more popular per capita in Canada, as opposed to the USA.

All I have too say is WAY TO GO TAMPA BAY !!!!

i didn't realize so many tampa players are from canada.. weird ;)

yeah I was surprised myself :o :D

The cup deserves to be with whoever played best -- and in this case its in Tampa Bay. Just because a team played like **** and they're canadian doesn't mean they deserve it more than anyone else.

I agree, Its a load of bull

No you don't need a new sig.

Thanks for the great ride Flames.

Congrats Lightning.

Lets hope there's a net season.

We will be back!

GO!FLAMES!GO! :beer: :punk:

I am going to miss flamesgirls.com though.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
