Well last night was game 7 of final round for Lord Stanley's Cup. It was a battle to the end, but Edmonton came up short. The game finished 3-1 ( 2-1 if you omit the empty net goal ).
It has been now 13 full years since the cup has been to its rightful home, CANADA. This is now 2 consecutive years, that a Canadian team has come within 1 game of bringing the cup home, last year was the Calgary Flames, and this year the Oilers, who were seated 8th at the end of the regular season. I firmly believe that it would have been a completely different series had Rolosen not been injured in game 1. I am not saying that Edmonton would have won for sure, just that the dynamic of the game would have been different. Rolosen had more confidence in the net, and in his puck handling abilities.
Oh well there is always next year.
There is one thing I would like to say to Pete Karmanos Jr.( who happens to also be the owner of the company I presently work for ) take care of Cam Ward, he is THE ONLY reason that Carolina won the cup. I am not saying that the rest of the team played poorly, they just didn't play exceptionnally. Maybe if they didn't have Ward, they would have stepped up their game, maybe not. There is no way to be sure.
