Hear, hear!
I'm worried about Montreal - they've just traded their goalie. When I was a kid, the Habs were my team but for the past several years, I've cheered for whatever team Hasek was playing for. Now that he's gone, I'm back to the Habs (though I keep it quiet, living in Toronto). I've never seen such rabid hockey fans as here in Toronto! I'm sure Detroit gives them a run for their money, eh SS?

I just read an article the other day about Vancouverites. One of the points was, "You know you're from Vancouver when you hear yourself saying, 'I know the Canucks are going to win the Cup this year'!" |

A Little Humor
Two guys from Toronto die and wake up in hell.
The next day the devil stops in to check on them and sees
them dressed in parkas, mittens and toques warming
themselves around the fire. The devil asks them,
"What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough for you?"
The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we're from Canada, the
land of snow and ice and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."
The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough
and turns up the heat. The next morning he stops in again and there they are,still dressed in parkas, toques and mittens. The
devil asks them again, "It's awfully hot down here, can't you
guys feel it?"
Again the two guys reply, "Well, like we told ya yesterday,
we're from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold.
We're just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."
This gets the devil a little steamed up and he
decides to fix these two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as
it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere.
He stops by the room with the two guys from Canada and
finds them in light jackets and bucket hats, grilling sausage and drinking beer.
The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in
abject misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves."
The two Canadians reply, "Well, ya know, we don't get
too much warm weather up there in Toronto so we've just
got to have a cook-out when the weather's THIS nice."
The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight.
Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the
heat because they have been cold all their lives. The
devil decides to turn all the heat off in hell.
The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles
are hanging everywhere; people are shivering so bad
that they are unable to do anything but wail, moan and
gnash their teeth.
The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two
Canadians. He gets there and finds them back in their
parkas, toques, and mittens. NOW they are jumping up
and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like mad men!!!
The devil is dumbfounded, "I don't understand, when I
turn up the heat you're happy. Now it's freezing cold
and you're still happy. What is wrong with you two???"
The Torontonians look at the devil in surprise,
"Well, don't you know? If Hell freezes over, it must mean
the Leafs have won the Stanley Cup."

LOL SS. The Canadian newspaper with the biggest circulation, the Toronto Star, had a huge photo of Doug Gilmour on the front page yesterday. With the recent trades, people are saying this is Toronto's best chance to win the Cup since they last won, in 1967.
I recently moved to T.O. and this is a true hockey town! I overheard three of my male co-workers talking about the Leafs last week:
M1: If the Leafs win the Cup, I won't be coming to work the next day.
M2: If the Leafs win, I won't be coming in for the next week!
M3 (obviously a Habs fan): Luckily, you won't have to worry about that.
True story!

Unfortunately, it's over. I was just watching the last bit of the game at the bar . . . sad night for Red Wing fans. I was just getting off work and was driving to the bar when the Leafs lost in triple overtime. Sad, sad, sad!
I'm so sorry ((((((((SS)))))))))

We'll get em next year....unlike a few teams that will be leaving the playoffs in the next few days, Wings fans can say that with a straight face. We still have a lot to be proud of, and a numerous amount of young talent that will be more than ready for another Cup with the next season.

My hats off to the Red Wings... I am shocked to see them out of it so soon, but like Cabrylla said, there's always next year.
