Stanley Cup

PersonaNonGrata · #1 06-07-2007, 01:30 AM

Congratulations to the Anaheim Ducks on winning the most coveted trophy in professional sports. I was cheering for Ottawa but they got a proper whalloping from the Ducks. Giguere was great, Emery was not. The Anaheim stars played like stars and the Ottawa stars fizzled. I was really hoping The Cup would return to its ancestral home in Canada but as least it's close by here in SoCal, plus there are 19 Canadian players on the Ducks roster.

The biggest congratulations for me go to Brian Burke. He's a magician of a GM. Too bad Vancouver let him go.

With the Stanley Cup awarded and hockey over until October, I will retire my Stanley Cup avatar and replace it with my traditional Hello Kitty! avatar.

Yesterday was a pretty good day for some:

1.) UA wins Women's College World Series.
2.) Hoff records 500th save.
3.) Ducks win first Stanley Cup for California.

Congrats to all!

I too was rooting for the Sens.... something is wrong in the world when a team named the "Ducks" wins the SC.... don't get me wrong, they deserved it, but I guess my feelings are that only 1 of the original 6 teams should ever win it

Congrats to the Ducks...... (damn, it's even weird to type it lol)

What a series. The Ducks came out to win. No clue what happened to the Sens. I was hoping for Ottowa only because they're an Eastern Conf team, but good to see a west coast team win it, I guess. Should bring more interest out there. Until October.....

(now I'll just pray the Flyers make the right moves during off season)

do you understand the intricacies of the game? I know that a lot of people who have never played the game feel that way about baseball, but i've never heard it about hockey.

I think we need to get him out on the ice and then he'll realize just how cool, literally and figuratively, hockey is. We could just settle for watching a game live. Every person who has not been a hockey fan becomes one after going to an NHL game.

Gresch: Did you see the segment with Clement, Hull, Ferraro and Don Cherry re: fighting in the NHL? What'd you think?
