The (Hilarious) Implosion of the 2010 Stanley Cup Champs

When the Chicago Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup, it was a dark day for humanity. But when we realized that their horrendous contracts would soon catch up to them, it got a little better.

But what we didn't know was just how bad it would be for them...and how hilarious it would be for us.

So many of their regular season and playoff heroes have been traded off for peanuts, and while Blackhawks fans seem so quick to dismiss these players as worthless (when just two months ago they were GODS AMONG MEN...typical bandwagon response), we all know what they meant to the team.

What's also hilarious is watching these hockey n00bz get angry without having any real understanding of how the salary cap works or the sheer idiocy of their own front office.

Ah, bandwagoners....

Beards of War has produced this short film attempting to detail just how much of the team has been sold off in order to pave the way for more mediocre players with smaller salaries.

Man, that salary cap's a BITCH, ain't it?

  4. Sounds to me that someone is lolumad for not winning the cup this year. The Blackhawks played their asses off and deserved the cup. Now as a true Blackhawks fan as sad as I am to see some of the players have to be traded I am glad we won the cup and I have to have faith in management that they will continue to build a winning team.

  5. Honestly, it's less to do with Detroit losing and more to do with Chicago winning, which is why it's so hilarious to see half the team gone. I like to think of it as payback to the most insufferable of the bandwagoners.

  6. Great video. Versteeg's rap (if that's what you call that debacle) was the best part. Close second is Patrick Kane ready to pass out and holding onto the rail for dear life.
