The Vancouver Canucks won it in double overtime! They are going to the Stanley Cup finals.
I guess they had better Canadians than the Sharks, eh?

LMAO!!! Right on Heather!

When my buddies and I are talking sports (which is a synonym for hockey..the other things the rest of you think of as sports are just childish games...well except for rugby, of course, but nobody wants to talk rugby....hmmm maybe I'll look up kiwisub, whip up a roast of lamb, a few dozen pints and we can talk the game of games).

Anyway...when assesing a teams chances, we look at the Canadians on the roster. That is the bulk and backbone of any team. Without a solid component of skilled Canadians the team hasn't got a chance. the Europeans provide some flash, and are often the star point getters, but that isn't going to win games for you consistently.

And sorry to my dear friends south of the border, but you don't even figure in the calculations. Americans are just there to fill out the rosters, with the odd exception here and there.

ETA: Before somebody starts shouting that I am biased, keep in mind that over 50% of the players in the NHL are Canadian.

WTF do you want? You put canadians practically in Tiajuana and they start unlearning hockey. Personally, I think the whole southern half of the US hockey league should be fucking floor hockey... like with brooms and crap.
Now the bruins your Canucks face THOSE ARE CANADIANS!

It was a good one. Wednesday's game 1 was good too...scoreless right till the very end when Torres popped one in with less than 20 seconds on the clock to give the Canucks the win.

Some fine goaltending that night, let me tell you.

Looks like its going to be a good series this year.
