Sure but don't most eventual champions have a flat game along the way? My Blackhawks got beat up a few times on their way to the Stanley Cup.Smithy said:They looked decidedly average against the Swiss the other day.

That's OK, Smithy. The Stanley Cup is awarded to the champion of the National Hockey League, the world's preeminent professional ice hockey league. It's real big in Canada.Smithy said:Sorry Tomasso but I've neither heard of the Blackhawks nor the Stanley Cup [huh]
Well, some players don't seem to care for them.Baron Kurtz said:Note, it's only the people watching on TV that seem to be complaining. Those who are their experiencing the atmosphere seem to have embraced them completely.
Baron Kurtz said:The rubbish we're seeing in papers and discussion forums in the UK re: vuvuzelas really does smack a little too much of post-colonial cringe. Calling for them to be banned is a bit like asking Aussie Rules players to wear shorts that are a little longer - much better attuned to our cultured Western European attitudes, don't you know?
