It will be good to be excited about hockey again for the first time in months, especially after the anticlimactic finish to the World Cup of Canada, errrr, Hockey. I gotta say though, as a working stiff it is a royal pain in the arse to have the majority of games on during the holidays but then the gold medal game is always on when it is time to go back to work.

I was pumped for this even before I got tickets. Watch for Shawn Belle. This guy is an unreal skater. Look for me on TSN. I'll be the tall, kinda dorky lookin, drunk Canada fan being escorted out by security in the first 5 minutes. That is if I get past the border with my glock 9 and trunk full of cheeba. WOOOOOO CANADA!

Is there a better holiday tradition than this? What a treat that they play on Christmas day! Really messes up the routine of watching the new Don Cherry tape!
When to watch it? When to watch it?
It's a good problem to have I suppose!
I'll be watchin Perry for sure, he is unreal with the puck. And Syvret goes to my school!
For the US fans, look out for Robby Shremp, he is outstanding too!

The Don Cherry Tape is a tradition for me too!!! I guess I will have to squeeze it in earlier in the afternoon. My problem is Canada plays at 4 against Slovakia, so it will be on while I am eating christmas dinner. I am gonna be running back and forth from the dinner table to the tv.
GO CANADA GO! :thumb:

My wife and I caught the fever when they played here in Halifax a couple years ago. Great hockey and the crowds set records for the tournament. Believe the hype. The teams love it and appreciate it.
That being said....GO CANADA GO!!! :rambo: :thumb: :thumb:
