Speaking of Semin, how retarded is Jim Rutherford in Carolina to give that guy a 7 year deal. The stupidity that GM's in every professional sports league show on a daily basis is astounding.

BTW - Does Brad Richards still play for the Rangers? I didn't hear his name called once in 2 games.

I wouldn't call it playing. He occupies a place in a line.

Canadians are different, they only throw bananas at black players on the ice, and riot, burn, loot the city when their team fails again and again at winning The Cup.

whatever happens this year in Vancouver, hopefully I'll be in California around that time

or at least they better have learn the lesson from last year's fiasco. With all those people caught on video in the riots, I don't even think 5 people have been brought to trial

A girl I went to high school with was there, did some dumb things, was identified and charged. Last I heard she took the plea bargain, only wound up with 1 year of probation or some community service or something. I assume that's how the majority of cases were handled.

I know you want to see The Cup.....but don't try to jinx the Kings by saying where you are going to be prematurely.

^^ Once the Leafs clinch a spot, The Count will hand the Leafs The Cup.

It's pretty simple.

To get the cup back to Canada where it belongs and hasn't been since 93 and back to the greatest hockey market in the world. And to get it away from those faux hockey markets that have disgraced Lord Stanley's good name. Like Anaheim, Carolina, Tampa and L.A?

Gotcha.

....Other teams with streaks of comparable length or longer haven't been nearly as successful as Detroit in converting the ample opportunities into titles. The Blackhawks didn't win the Stanley Cup during their 28-year playoff run. Neither did the Blues in their 25-year streak. The NBA's Trail Blazers also failed to win it all during their 21-season playoff streak. The Red Wings' 21-year-streak, conversely, has produced four titles.
