Countdown to draft day.
Of course he should be taking credit... he made huge contributions to them getting there... before he was absolutely assaulted by one of the cheapest hits in NHL history. They should have put Rome in jail.

I think his greatest contribution to their Stanley Cup run was getting knocked the hell out, removing himself (and Rome) from play. Had that ape just gotten up and shrugged it off, things might have gone differently.
I know Thomas is from the US...
Hmmm... one player in the whole series from the US and he wins MVP?? coincidence??? doubt it.

....in the entire playoffs....I think that is incorrect
Tim Thomas is American

Even just in the finals there was more than 1 American...(Kesler, Thomas, and assorted Canucks D-men...Alberts, can't remember the others)
I think he means just the finals series... and he's wrong anyway. I just looked at both rosters.
THomas looks like the only Bruin, who played, who was from the US and Vancouver has a couple of guys (Alberts, Schneider.... you know... the Schneider who played every time Luongo got yanked)
Hmm... I wouldn't have exected Kesler to be American... you know... with all of the diving and all...
(honestly... I'm almost done... having fun in the mean time though)

Bartkowski is American and from Pittsburgh and the first native of the burgh to get his name on the cup. That fact alone gives me peace with the fact that the beaners won (=

I have a customer in Mexico City who's son plays hockey. Apparently, if you have some hockey credentials and a command of Spanish, you can make a pretty decent cash there as a coach and/or personal trainer.

Sorry to chime in a little late, but Chris Higgins and Keith Ballard are from the US, too. That gives the Canucks a total of 5 Americans who played in the playoffs.

For the record...
Boston have 22 Canadian players, Canucks have 16.
Boston have 4 American players, Canucks have 6.
Boston have 6 Euro/Russian/etc. players, Canucks have 8.
As for the Americans...
Boston - Bartkowski, MacDermid, Kampfer, Thomas
Canucks - Kesler, Ballard, Alberts, Higgins, Schneider, Sweatt
I looked it up to find the numbers when a Boston friend was talking **** about Canadians during the Cup to make fun of him.

I think 'Luongo' means 'pan with lots of holes' in Spanish .
ex. "Hey Jose, grab me that Luongo so I can strain out these beans for the guacamole."

Plus the MVP was from Flint Michigan, 40 minutes from where I grew up, so I consider it my cup. How many players were from Boston?

None. Schneider was the only one from MA.
Here's where the Americans were from:
Bruins: Bartkowski (Pittsburgh, PA), MacDermid (Hartford, CT), Kampfer (Ann Arbor, MI), Thomas (Flint, MI)
Canucks: Kesler (Livonia, MI), Ballard (Baudette, MN), Alberts (Minneapolis, MN), Higgins (Smithtown, NY), Schneider (Marblehead, MA), Sweatt (Elburn, IL)
The second-to-last one, lest we forget, is pronounced "MAAAAAAA-bul-head".
I thought it was pronouced "hahathecaNUKSlost".... All one word.
No?
You might be right

Didn't realize till I watched it again that Claud had Mark Recchi on the ice for the final 30 seconds. Nice way to close out a career and a classy move by Julien.

So as of today the thrashers are officially done. Sad day. Even the website has been shutdown. I know it was decided a few weeks ago, but it finally became real today.
