STANLEY CUP
 

I am currently watching the game...and the Devils just scored...GO DEVILS!!!:D

Noooooooo!!!! The Ducks HAVE TO WIN THE CUP!!!!!! Please!!! :( I am just reminding myself that this is only game one....whew. :)

good, he's ass.

GO NJ DEVILS!!

I know, I hate "Paddy Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

That may be, but the Ducks are captained by a Canadian, a Vancouverite no less!....Paul Kariya is from North Vancouver (a Carson Graham boy, actually!!)
So cheer for the Ducks, it's the next best thing.

True, but the city that actually gets to celebrate the victory will be in America :)

It's like when Boston tried to route for my Avalanche cause Ray Borque was on the team.

It's ok, you're still the second best hockey nation in the NHL :)

We are all cheering for Anaheim here because of Kariya - me especially since I happen to be a North Van native.

Side note: Paul went to highschool with my best friend's boyfriend.

Yes, the first being the Czech Republic, and/or perhaps Russia.

Here's an old story about Paul Kariya's sister...who is quite talented in hockey herself - she had to choose between grass hockey and ice hockey, and she picked grass hockey:

Now, she lives in Toronto, is a boxer and has a beauty shop!!

Since when did Kosovo and Moscow have NHL teams? lol jk

Honestly, I believe that game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals (when the two teams get that far) is basically one of the most exciting dramatic events in the sports world. When my Avs beat the Devils in Game 7 couple years back, it was completely tear jerking and enthralling. They felt safe with a 2-0 lead, then NJ scored late in the 2nd to set up a 3rd period for the ages.

BTW, I love it when Gay Thorne yells "SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!". That guy can make a meaningless regular season game sound important.

Kosovo is not in the Czech republic, it's not even a city, it's a nation/region thingy. Maybe you're thinking of Prague?

The Russians had their "Red Army" hockey team.
