And the incident was a shameful display, especially for a country like Canada. By your own admission though you wouldn't "get it", or understand how important that series was to Canadians and hockey either way.
So let's just say we both have our favorites.

I'm from Detroit - hockey is in my heritage
For me, it also helps that I'm old enough to remember 1980 but not for the Summit. I get why it's so important to Canadians - it just doesn't resonate for me. Like I said, for Americans, the Miracle game is about waaaaaaay more than just the game itself.
