#HMBlog: Tampa Bay Lightning's Mathieu Joseph eats poutine out of the Stanley Cup
Screencaps from Tampa Bay Lightning’s twitter
As Afghanistan fell back into the hands of the Taliban this week, another failed Terror State celebrated with the Stanley Cup in a delicious manner. Our own Mathieu Joseph, a native of Quebec took the cup back home and filled it with the rich Canadian treat consisting of cheese curds, french fries and brown gravy.
No word on if he finished the whole thing, but now that the war in Afghanistan is over, we have plenty of firepower to send to our “neighbors” to the north. Check out the video below:
#HMBlog: The Stanley Cup was involved in an accident...
Yikes! A photo just emerged on Twitter from @BoltsJolts of what appears to be (who else?) Pat Maroon holding a dented Stanley Cup.
Whoopsie Daisy…look, accidents happen when you’re having fun (& we are). No comment yet on the incident but I figure it will go something like this:
#HMBlog: Lightning Championship Boat Parade planned for this Monday & Nikita Kucherov slams beer & Montreal at post-game presser
SCREENGRAB VIA SPORTSNET/YOUTUBE
The Tampa Bay Lightning won their second Stanley Cup in as many years last night, beating the Montreal Canadians 1-0 in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. Another Championship means another boat parade, that scheduled to take place this Monday July 12th on the Tampa Riverfront according to Fox 13.
A highlight of the post-game fun was a shirtless Nikita Kucherov slamming a beer and the city of Montreal. “The fans in Montreal, come on,” said Kucherov. “They acted like they won the Stanley Cup, last game. You kidding me? You kidding me? Their final was last series, ok.” Kucherov was also unhappy about his goalie, Andrei Vasilevskiy, being snubbed for the Vezina Trophy, awarded to the best goalie in hockey every year & closing out his displeasure with a very fitting “number one bullshit”, we couldn’t agree more.

#HMBlog: Tampa Mayor Jane Castor says she wants the Lightning to lose tonight in game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final
Tampa Mayor Jane Castor is drawing some heat today for saying she wants the Lightning to lose tonight’s Game 5 in the Stanley Cup Final so the team can come back home on Wednesday and win it at home.
She’s not wrong, it would be cool to win the cup here at home. The Bucs were able to do it at home this year in the Super Bowl and it would be cool to win two championships at home in the same year but would you risk it? It’s unlikely that Montreal could come back in this series but you never know. The team, no doubt, wants to end it tonight. Yes, winning at home is great and all but it would also be nice to win that failed terror-state’s main export, the Stanley Cup in their own country and take it back home the day after we celebrated America and it’s independence. Either way, Montreal will probably go up in flames tonight. Mission accomplished, we hope. USA! USA! USA! Go Bolts!
#HMBlog - C'MON MAN! Biden, Trudeau bet on NHL Stanley Cup finals

WASHINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden has accepted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's offer they bet on the National Hockey League's Stanley Cup finals between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Montreal Canadiens.
In a Twitter post on Monday night, Trudeau challenged Biden. “Two of the best teams in the NHL are facing off right now. How about a friendly wager, @POTUS?” using Biden’s Twitter handle.
“You’re on pal. #GoBolts,” Biden responded.
The exchange of tweets did not say what the two leaders were wagering, but hopefully it’s a wall built on the border to shield us from the failed terror-state known as “Canada”.
