okay but genuinely the scene of scott alone on the ice while everyone else's family comes out. realizing that winning the cup means nothing if he doesn't have anyone to share it with. ilya and shane watching, realizing what's about to happen. superb direction and acting all around.

confessing "i think i'm gay" to the man with whom you've been having gay hookups for the past 5 years is. something.

on one hand, would have been fun if one of the teams were an obvious copy paste of the penguins. on the other, i don't think i could handle two hbo shows making geographically baffling statements about pgh in one season
