Congratulations. Too bad my local rag had to use the condesending headline “Stanley Cup to Tobacco Road”.

Again, the Liberals that edit this paper start in with their unadmitted prejudices and can’t recognize it.

I missed the first two periods, but thoroughly enjoyed the third (except for the ‘Canes giving up the goal.)

You are right about nobody caring about the ‘Canes in Charlottee. Don’t get me wrong, I like Charlotte but the Observer has the attitude that the world should revolve around Charlotte and the Queen City should have been the one to get the NHL franchise.

I think when they saw the silly name Charlotteans voted for their ECHL franchise they didn’t want to risk it.

Yes, it was a real nailbiter…especially when Edmonton made it 2-1, but I’m glad the Cup is staying in the U.S.

Remember, tho, we’re just giving it to you on loan for 12 months…

So now each player gets a day to have the cup at his house. It will show up in bars, beach houses, other countries, you name it. When Detroit won, one of the players took it to his favorite bar and let all the people in the bar have their pictures taken with it. They’ll show everyone their name on the side, where it will be for ever. Well, some 65-70 years then the ring goes to the hall…

Way too cool
