A lot of blood, sweat, and effort went into this game, alone.
After their 40 plus years of a dry spell, The LA Kings deserved to be the last team standing.
Way to go Kings, and fans.
Were You Rooting for the Los Angeles Kings?

The Los Angeles Kings have finally done it. For the first time in the franchise's 45-year history, the Kings can call themselves the Stanley Cup Champions. While the New Jersey Devils won two straight games after being down 3-0 in the Stanley Cup Finals, the Kings got the job done in Game 6. Actually, that's putting it lightly because the Kings demolished the Devils by a final score of 6-1.
“Everyone deserves this,” said Kings defenseman Drew Doughty, following the team's dominant Cup victory. “We got used to each other, we developed a chemistry, and we just went sailing from there.” The Kings' whopping six goals should be considered more impressive than they really are because they came against legendary Devils goalie Martin Brodeur.
Speaking of goalies, Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick was awarded the prestigious Conn Smythe Trophy for his outstanding series performance following Game 6. Not bad for a team that nearly missed the playoffs, eliminated the top three seeds, went 12-2 en route to the finals, and brought the city of LA its first Stanley Cup. Were you rooting for the Los Angeles Kings? Are you happy they won the Stanley Cup?

Plus, I love rooting for underdogs. Add to that the Kings had never won a Cup.
So yeah, I was all for the Kings.
HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for LA winning,. Good on them.
I don't have a problem with Jersey, he does.
Not a fan of either state.
Also: exactly what percentage of Jersey do you think is like that?
I'm sure not all of them are like that, but it sure seems like most of them are.

United States - 44 Titles
