World Cup Champs!!
They did it!!! Team Canada held on to prevail over Team Finland in a 3-2 victory of the World Cup of Hockey (formerly the Canada Cup). It was a good game, and not just because my team won, it was hard hitting and Finland kept it close all the way.
And as mentioned in yesterday’s post the NHL will lockout the players at midnight tonight. Not that you need me to tell you that, unless of course you don’t follow sports at all, in which case you could care less about this post. Looks like it will be a long one too. My guess is it will scrap the entire 2004-2005 season. The good news for me is we have a semi-pro team here. The Spokane Chiefs kick off their season on 9/25.
ESPN had what I thought was a good article on how this will affect Canada. I just hope they are able to resolve it as soon as possible.
Oh Canada, we rock !
Two bad about the lock-out, but we still have Hitmen, and you the Chiefs, so life goes on.
