I don't think you have to wait.   :p  
 
 Toronto & Ottowa had nearly identical reg season records - a game 7 seems almost appropriate. I don't think there's any shame in losing this one. Unlike...
 
 Boston was a huge favorite (2 vs 7) & up big in the series. ESPN even drudged up this old story in their honor:
  biggest chokes
 
 Man...I love the underdog. Even when it's those national anthem booing frogs.

Good Sports night though.  I never miss a 7th game in Hockey, and anytime you get OT it's a major bonus.  Anytime there are old vets on the ice like Gelinas, Linden and Keane, you know they're going to have an effect in OT.  Shocked the road team won both games though.  Looking forward to tonights game too - go Canada!  Oh wait.  Go overtime!

I thought it was really pathetic when the Bruins fans started cheering USA, USA, USA in the 3rd period. Do they not realize that even Montreal have American players on their team?.....Dumbass's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder what the percentage of doodles actually play in the NHL? Not many I'm sure.

It's actually way up from the past.
 
 The number of U.S.-born players in the NHL has doubled, from 55 in 1980 to it's peak of 112 in 1999-2000.  It think it was down to 93 in 2002.
 
 Canada 383
 Europe 238
 US 93
 
 I don't have stats from 2003.
