STANLEY CUP FEVER


We watched our beloved Edmonton Oilers lose the Stanley Cup. That makes 18 years that Canada hasn't brought it home.

Another couple joined us for the evening - he's Canadian and she's American but this was only her second hockey game. She surprised herself by how much she got "into it". It was a tremendous game - fast, edge-of-your seat hockey. Edmonton pushed them to seven games, and Carolina played a dynamic playoff season. Goodbye till September, boys!

18 years? Yeah, maybe it's time to come home. I'm not really in to Hockey, but I did happen to be watching it the night that the Stars won. Only hockey game I've watched all the way through and my home team won it.

Hope the Cup goes home next year.
