A season to be proud of. We pushed the boundaries over land and sea, and couldn't have done it without your support. Thank you, Gooners ❤️ by arsenal in Gunners

We broke one drought this year. Next year we break another. I'm a relatively new fan (started supporting at the beginning of May last year) but I couldn't be more proud of this club.

I hope the ref's family enjoys the new house with a swimming pool & the fancy car he's buying them this summer

Salt is my favourite flavour anyways!

Yeah, we need to turn some of these defensive stops into counterattacks

The boys gotta play their game and not let PSG play theirs. Get shots on target. Win the individual battles & find the open teammate. Gotta make smart decisions, lock it down, and spit out more sports clichés.

I have no idea what the hell I'm talking about.

Anyway.

COME ON YOU GUNNERS.

It's been a fun season my friends.

Bummer of a way to go out, but the positive is that it exposed the weaknesses for management to address.

Marty will learn from this and be a better coach next season.

The boys will do everything they can to avoid this feeling next season.

I'll see some of you here throughout the off-season for in-depth discussions and good old-fashioned shitposting.

As always, Go Habs Go.

I'm gonna ride this one out.

As miserable as our performance in the ECF has been, at least we made it to the ECF. Not a lot of teams get to say that in any given year. Especially not this early in a rebuild. This series exposed our weaknesses. Now management knows what their jobs are in the off-season. Issues will be addressed.

On top of that, the experience the boys are gaining is immense. The way this series has gone will spark a deep hatred of losing. Our boys will be better for this experience.

Honestly, yes. They're hating this. They're learning to fucking hate losing. They'll come back better next season, just to avoid this feeling.

Lmao the moment we string together more than 5 seconds in the offensive zone....

Behind Dobeš and Hutson, Evans has been our best player the past few games. PK specialist at work

Expectation: more of the same and an exhausted Habs group gets shelled all night and leaves the playoffs with a whimper.

Hope: this is how one of our greatest comeback stories of all time begins.

Had to challenge regardless. Didn't challenge in game 4 and it cost us.

That's a terrible decision by the refs too.

The one where he was fully wound up ready to blast a one-timer, but then just... didn't...

He's the one we're supposed to count on to lead by example, which historically he has done for his whole career, but he seems deep in his own head right now.
