Classy as always. The NHL players know it.
Nothing Else Matters playing in the background was perfect.
R.I.P. Papa Sheifele ❤
That girl waving the mockery way to the Jets is disgraceful. I admired they played nothing else matters by Metallica in tribute to Scheifele, that was soul to soul.
Mark had a rough few days His dad passed then he was in the box when the Stars scored the winning goal 🙏
Classy end to the last game of the Jets season. That's all The Dallas Stars and the fans. Thank you.
Such class. This is beautiful
We all love you Mark!! All of Wpg & Canada!! You made your dad proud all your life!! ❤❤❤
Not a fan of either team but this is why I love hockey.❤
As a Stars fan, I feel awful for Scheifele. Guy played with a heavy heart right after hearing about the passing of his father and gave everything he had only to come up short. My heart hurts for him, condolences to him and his family
Sht i was praying for the jets to come home winners an play the oil shoot man love the jets man 🇨🇦🍻
I know how he feels man its heartbreaking your pops took u first time u laced the skates up now u go back to civilian life an have to bury your pops so soul ripping
Stars owner flew Scheifele home after the game on his personal jet
❤❤❤
That was so awesome ❤
The way Scheifs clinched on to Duchene's jersey….I can't stop crying 😢🙏❤️
The way he hugged duchene🍺💔
It's the same thing. I haven't been happy with the 4 Nations Series and Canada stooping to such a low as to boo the United States National Anthem that's sacred to Americans, especially if you know the story behind it and how it came to be. I remember Canada once upon a time finishing the US National Anthem when the sound went out and I asked: What happened to that Canada? Thats in, at least, the top three most disrespectful things one can do to an American is insult the greatest sacrifice ever made that I wholeheartedly believe also made Canada what it is today. So, that being said, I wished demise on the whole Canadian NHL hockey community and the Leafs loss, especially how they treated their players is further telling.
But, we're all still human too. That whole game you're feeling for that guy. It's bittersweet when he made that first goal, but you're wanting the Stars to comeback. But, watching him get that penalty and having to sit in the penalty box all alone with nothing but his thoughts, at least on his team bench they're saying things to distract his mind, but when he sat in that box and his head dropped, he had nothing but time to think. TOO MUCH TIME to think. But, regardless of what he was thinking, just maybe his dad was sitting next to him in the box wishing he could tell his son how proud he was of him.
I think as all the players shook hands, I would imagine all of the Stars, as his brothers in hockey, told him "If you ever need anything, let me know. Your dad would be proud."
Happy to see the Stars move on, but we're human and can feel for those with loss. We all know what that feels like, and fortunately, it isn't the end. His dad finished up his hockey season and see his son again in the next one. He's just taking a break
It is after all just a game. To all the jets fans out there, you have one hell of town and one hell of a hockey club. My best to your captain!!!
Scheifele could have stayed home and no on would have said a word. Instead, he showed up and made this a hockey game to remember. I bet his dad is watching this with pride somewhere.
Duchess is a true beauty.
Another reminder that sports can be brutal and “storybook endings” often don’t happen. Went from scoring the first goal of the game to watching his short-handed team get eliminated from the box. Can’t imagine how he felt in that moment.
This is why we love this sport.
This is yet another reason why hockey is the greatest sport on the planet.
THANKS FOR GETTING A STUPID PENALTY THAT COST YOUR TEAM THE GAME AND THE SERIES BUDDY.
The family of hockey ❤ crying my fcking eyes right now
Это очень сильно!
Heartbreaking 💔
Scheifle showed that to him, hockey is more important than family.
