Game 7 tonight
Seeing as the series has the lowest ratings in history or something, I figured I'd remind you guys of something you don't care about:
Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals is tonight. It's the oldest trophy in sports, up for grabs in the deciding game of what has been an excellent series between two teams who clearly don't like one another. I'm sure the NBA seems more exciting to you all, but why not give this a try? I mean, if you don't like it, you can always go back over to Everyone Loves Raymond, American Abjection, or maybe Friends, who will teach us all how to live and love and laugh again. Sorry. Got sidetracked. Watch the NHL tonight. Be smart. |

After the mockery that is "Know Goal?" on game 6, this league deserves to collapse.
good job, bettman. |

Re: Game 7 tonight
On the CBC broadcast Harry Neale mentioned that the video review team upstairs (during the next stoppage) saw that it might have been a goal, but there was no conclusive evidence to rule it a goal definitively. Sounds like more of the NHL’s usual horseshit.
Should be one hell of a game 7. As if there was ever a Game 7 that wasn’t. |

One might have also made the argument that the puck was essentially kicked in, as well. Anyway, watch the damned game and stop complaining, you all bunch of complaining complainers. |

[whine]The NHLs argument was that the puck was in the air and this the visible white ice was actually below the puck, not between the puck and the red line.
What a bunch of Commies.[/whine] |

[/ QUOTE ] I see that you are from Tampa. Let me tip my hand to you a little more: I want Chuk to raise the cup. I am just disgusted with the league, with how it is operated, and how they try to fix things. The league is a conspiracy theorists wet dream. And I would have dismissed the goal as a kick. The player followed the puck with his eyes and turned to stop to make perfect contact. It was not a direct kicking motion and I am in support of a rule change for redirection with skates, I still think the non call, non stopage of play, the non review of a questionable call was horse crap. Wait, we are talking about last night, right? |

I watched replays on ABC and CBC and I thought it looked like the puck was off the ground, so it was very hard to tell. In the end, it's better off that they're going to settle it on the ice with a game 7. Had they counted it as a goal, you'd have just as much complaining about the way it finished. I was rooting for Calgary, I wanted to see if the city would go up in flames if they clinched it on home ice. That Red Mile looked like it was going to explode. Semi off-topic...I think it was one of the ABC commentators that said the Red Mile had a better ring to it than the Red 1.6 kilometers....I thought that was funny. As for Lecavlier, I agree with Don Cherry, he's playing with a concussion. By the look on his face, he doesn't seem to even know where he is half the time on the ice. Dazed and confused. Can't wait for the game tonight, hope it's close throughout. |

Where is Vincent?
Lecavalier has no goals and 2 assists in his last 7 games.
Stanley Cup Finals. Game 7. There's nothing better in the entire world. |

[/ QUOTE ] The America's Cup for sailing is the oldest trophy in sports; Stanley Cup is the oldest trophy in team sports. Of course, sailing is a team sport, so I don't know how this has been determined. The point is: as Rushmore stated, you guys are missing out on something pretty exciting. Put some money on an overtime game and see how it goes. Its a white knuckler, very exciting. |
