The best time of year: the quest for the Cup

[mortimer brewster]

I am pulling for a Canadian team to win. A 32 year drought is too long.

The Maple Leafs have to win a cup by 2030-31. That is the year the band with the champions from 1965-66 thru 1977-78 will be removed from the Cup and retired to the Hockey Hall of Fame and a new band added for the new and future champs.

The team that Harold Ballard drove into the ground should always have a place on the Stanley Cup.

Last night was incredible-- all four games decided by one goal, two in overtime and another in the final minute of regulation. The Cup chase never disappoints!

The Maple Leafs have done dick since.

I'm a Blues fan. We're down 2-0 after two pretty competitive games. The Jets are really good (obviously being the President's Cup winners). Their defense is stifling. The Blues have had trouble generating scoring chances as the games have worn on. I'm going tomorrow night for Game 3. Let's Go Blues!

What a game last night! Blues win 7-2. The place was off the hook. I have never seen more energy out of a team, the first 6 or so minutes were unbelievable. Buchy with the hat trick! Now it's a series! Let's Go Blues!
