2. I love hockey, but recently have pretty much stuck w/ college hockey
The team I followed for years and years seems determined NOT to win a championship. Every time their lead scorer comes up for contract, they trade him away. It's hard to stay loyal to the team that is trying to NOT win.

I have yet to find another team I am willing to support.

So, I'm sticking (no pun intended) with the college kids. Go BU!

3. I also like Junior Hockey myself.
And althought my team didn't make the Memorial Cup tournament, I was happy the Québec Remparts won it :D

Even though I'm American, I would so love to see Canada take the Cup home again. Why should we have all the fun?

5. Go Oilers!!!! Carolinians couldn't care less about hockey.
Lord Stanley's cup belongs in a city whose citizens CARE about the greatest game on earth. Who wants to bet tonights game hasn't sold out yet in Raleigh?

10. Bring back the Whalers, and
The Jets, and the Nordiques!

Who the fuck cares about Wayne Gretzky in Phoenix?

12. Hey, at least the Nordiques moved to a hockey-hungry city that sees snow.
I saw nothing wrong with that move.

Now, the Avs themselves, I still hate them.

13. Well, I'm far enough away from Whyte Ave
To be away from the kerfuffle.

But perhaps next game I should park my car there. I need a new one, and if they'll be torching things again...:think:
