MVO: The Voice-Over Guys Pick Their 2019 NHL Champion. Yes it’s the annual MVO NHL Showdown!

Some of the decisions are regionally based (where the voice talents live).

Some are emotionally based (their long time favorite team).

Some are just plain wrong (for example, if the voice talent picked the Bruins, they are just plain wrong…or they are not a Buffalo Sabres fan, either way).

St. Louis has been the surprise team of the series with not too many hockey prognosticators calling for the Blues to make it all the way to the finals.

The Bruins have lied, cheated and stole their way into the NHL playoffs more times than can be counted but that’s what one might expect from dirty players.

(EDITOR’S NOTE: It is possible that the writer of this blog post does not like any Boston sports teams because of that city’s long time rivalry with another city whose name rhymes with Nuffalo. Therefore neither the Gruins nor the Cheatriots are likely to get a fair shot here. And that is where the actual good natured fun and ribbing of sports rivalries comes in )

So here are the NHL Stanley Cup Championship picks from MVO: The Voiceover Guys – NONE of whom are hockey experts but are hockey fans.

BOSTON BRUINS

ST. LOUIS BLUES

Pittsburgh Wins The Cup!

Two things we learned from watching the Nashville Predators take on the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2017 Stanley Cup.

First, Pittsburgh has a hockey dynasty on it’s hands and they are an awesome team.

Second, Nashville is a true hockey town in a way I think most hockey fans never truly understood until this series and this championship. They were a worthy competitor.

Now to the bragging.

The following talented gentlemen not only picked the winner of the Cup, but now because of their insightful win they are now considered more talented and even better looking.

Like we said, bragging. We’re guys, it’s what we do.

The Voice-Over Guys Pick the 2017 Stanley Cup Winner

Male Voice-Over Talents — Mon, 29 May 2017 13:30:04 +0000

It’s time once again for the Voice-Over Guys to pick the 2017 Stanley Cup winner.

As usually, only some of the guys will be winners.

This year’s NHL finals see the perennial Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins take on the Nashville Predators, who are in their first Stanley Cup Final.

We’re not sure if many folks are just tired of Pittsburgh winning the Cup all the time but there sure are a lot of MVO: The Voice-Over Guys cheering for Nashville. Maybe they just love the underdog.

At any rate, here are the MVO: The Voice-Over Guys who will be supporting Pittsburgh:

For those of you unfamiliar with the Stanley Cup (and oh what fun you’ve been missing), here taken from NHL.com is a brief history of the NHL’s highest prize:

It all started on March 18, 1892, at a dinner of the Ottawa Amateur Athletic Association. Lord Kilcoursie, a player on the Ottawa Rebels hockey club from Government House, delivered the following message on behalf of Lord Stanley, the Earl of Preston and Governor General of Canada:

“I have for some time been thinking that it would be a good thing if there were a challenge cup which should be held from year to year by the champion hockey team in the Dominion (of Canada).

“There does not appear to be any such outward sign of a championship at present, and considering the general interest which matches now elicit, and the importance of having the game played fairly and under rules generally recognized, I am willing to give a cup which shall be held from year to year by the winning team.”

Shortly thereafter, Lord Stanley purchased a silver cup measuring 7 ½ inches high by 11 ½ inches across for the sum of 10 guineas (approximately $50); appointed two Ottawa gentlemen, Sheriff John Sweetland and Philip D. Ross, as trustees of that cup; and set the following preliminary conditions to govern the annual competition:

– The winners to return the Cup in good order when required by the trustees in order that it may be handed over to any other team which may win it.
– Each winning team to have the club name and year engraved on a silver ring fitted on the Cup.
– The Cup to remain a challenge competition and not the property of any one team, even if won more than once.
– The trustees to maintain absolute authority in all situations or disputes over the winner of the Cup.
– A substitute trustee to be named in the event that one of the existing trustees drops out.

The first winner of the Stanley Cup was the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association (AAA) hockey club, champions of the Amateur Hockey Association of Canada for 1893. Ironically, Lord Stanley never witnessed a championship game nor attended a presentation of his trophy, having returned to his native England in the midst of the 1893 season. Nevertheless, the quest for his trophy has become one of the world’s most prestigious sporting competitions.
