I'm personally a little bit excited about this year's Stanley Cup Finals match-up. I think it will be one of the best finals series since Vancouver/New York in 1994. In Tampa you've got a great group of young, hard-working and ultra-talented kids and in Calgary you've got a great combo of skill and grit. Tampa will outplay Calgary, but the Flames may outwork the Lightning. Goaltending seems pretty close, too hard to give an edge to either team. Flames coaching staff is a little more experienced. Should be a great series, I'm picking Tampa Bay in seven games. Game 1 starts in 75 minutes.

I'm definitely behind Calgary. Will be at the local speakeasy.
<In Putty voice> Gotta support the team.

Heh, no not so far anyway. One time I wore a Roughrider's cap. But I'll still be cheering like a madman and drinking beer from a 'foam dome'.

You'd think they already won the cup after they won last series. Damn Calgarians! I want them to win but I know we'll never hear the end of it!
It would be nice for a Canadian team to win, even though teams in the states consist of so many Canadian players. But even more I'd like to see a team with a small payroll win.

Calgary deserves to win the cup after knocking off three division leaders already. Hopefully they can build on the win tonight. |

If the Islanders aren't in it, I root for the oldest, most northern teams. If Tampa wins, there will be be a four car parade in a mall parking lot. |

Heh heh, yeah, they should move that team to Winnipeg or Quebec or something. You know I hear a lot of talk...
When is the next game? I hope Calgary keeps their claws sharp. Winning game 1 could be the worst thing they could do.

d'oh, this is what I said in another thread.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe just maybe I was trying to Dean, so that they could win just one in TB and come back to win in Calgary. Didja think of that, huh, huh?

Funny, I'm quoting myself... Methinks I should've placed some wagers. If it goes that way, I called it! |

I was thinking that Calgary would lose tomorrow, but I feel the winds have changed.
Calgary in 6. No matter what voodoo Carolyn attempts to use. I wish I could be there.

Damn Carolyn and her voodoo. It was a tight race in any case.

What a game, I can't wait for tonight, I can honestly say no matter who wins I will be happy. Jarome deserves a cup, but he's still young and I have no doubt he will get one. Tampa has just played so darn well as a team. These guys are putting my faith back into hockey. Awesome!

BOO YA! Game was a little boring, end of the third was intense, all-in-all - great series! Can't wait for the World Cup in August. Iginla, St. Louis, and Richards all on the same team. GO CANADA!
