What a game! I hope you Yanks had the opportunity to watch the finals on CBC. Bob Cole did a pro job calling the game last night.

Hot Rod Brind'Amour comes through for the 'Canes last night! I know that the concept of the Stanley Cup in the middle of Tobacco Country, being slobbered on by rednecks, instead of residing in the birthplace of the game, should offend me and it does. But Rod Brind'Amour is the freaking man, and I'll choke down my distaste for the Stanley Cup being in ...[text shortened]... was right there, baby, the game winner was pure hustle! Love it! Vintage Brind'Amour.
Okay, let's be honest. The Hurricanes were LUCKY they got that win. They were outplayed by Edmonton all over the ice for the majority of the game. Hemsky's goal to tie it at 4 was a show of pure heart. I thought for sure after Williams' short-hander the game was over but Edmonton surprised me again by coming right back.

It is a complete shame about Rollie though. The guy carried his team into the finals only to blow his knee in the first game. And what could be worse than having the back-up blow the game in the final MINUTE! I bet someone's Mother got punched in the eye down on Whyte Ave. last night.

That's Mickey Mouse.

I'm not surprised though. I've watched some of the games on NBC and it's absolutely horrid. The camera is so far away from the ice, the commentary is weak, there's no insight from the colour guy and Pierre Macguire sits between the benches doing his best jackass impression.

I feel sorry for you guys. :'(

Oh man, NBC, terrible. The worst is trying to watch the three clowns do the intermission report at the Rockefeller Ice Rink. But NBC is way better than the OLN coverage. I told you last week that they lost the signal for carolina's game 7 in the first period. Had to check my phone for score updates. sad stuff

I was cheering for the Oil just because they picked up Rollie. Now that he blew out his knee, I'm think Brind'Amor deserves the cup (plus I don't think either of Edmontons' backups can get the job done) . A Canadien team deserves the cup eventually, but this isn't their year.

OLN did make one interesting point.

Which NHL player has played the most career games without winning the cup?
