    Team Canada.....

    Of the 6 Canadian hockey teams, they are a combined 2-9 at home to start the season.



    I saw one of the victories, a goal by Ottawa with under 5 min left to beat Phoenix

    How does that work anyways? I'd rather sign a 500K deal in US than Canada....which money system do they use?

    It's too early to tell......and don't forget, one of those losses was the 6-1 beating the Habs took at the hands of our very own Sabres.

    Hmmm... and where were Canada's best players playing hockey? Oh yeah!!!! The NH-frikkin-L. To prove it, I went back and looked at the leading scorers from every NHL team the season of 79-80.

    We have,
    Sabres, Gil Perreault
    Bruins: Rick Middleton
    North Stars: Al McAdam
    Leafs: Sittler
    Nordiques: Real Cloutier
    Canadiens: LaFleur
    Kings: Dionne
    Penguins: Kehoe
    Whalers: Mike Rogers
    Red Wings: Dale McCourt
    Flery: Linseman
    Islanders: Trotts
    Rangers: Esposito
    Flames: Kent Nilsson
    Caps: Gartner
    Blackhawks: Terry Ruskowski
    Blues: Federko
    Canucks: Smyl
    Oilers: Need I even say?
    Jets: Morris Lukowich
    Rockies: McDonald

    Question: With the exception of Kent "Everybody's talkin' at me" Nilsson, what do all these players have in common?

    Answer: They're all Canadian. Ohhhh!

    Tell me your "college boys" of '80 would have beat a TRUE Canadian team. Never. The fact is, back then there were only two hockey superpowers, Canada and Russia, and only 8 years before that, guys like Esposito, Orr, Mahovolich, Cournoyer, Henderson, etc., etc., etc, just got through establishing Canada's hockey dominance by whoopin' the Commies in the Summit Series.

    I rest my case.

    P.S., and that list doesn't even include the other guys on those teams that were dominant in other ways, like defensively, or the number two scorers, like Mike Bossy.

    How many went on to have great NHL careers? None. A few had mediocre careers, like Mike Ramsey and Mark Johnson. The beloved US captain, Eruzione, never even played a single GAME in the NHL. In fact, he never played even a semi-pro game after 1980. And that miracle goaltender, Jim Craig, a whopping 27 NHL game career. Whoa!

    Admit it, Mr. Earthquake man, you LOVE team Canada!

    Virtually the same Russian team whipped Canada's ass 8-1 in the 1981 Canada Cup. Our boys played like a team, not like a bunch of prima donnas.

    And Canada also beat the USA 8-3 in the round robin & 4-1 in the semis of that same tournament in 1981.

    What's your point?
