Hockey, anyone?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Hockey, anyone?

Sitnger, you'll like this. Probably because you're from the same city (Columbus, Ohio, USA) and the Blue Jackets' macot is Stinger. (Coincidence, I think not)

Does anyone else know of any cool sports moments where the underdog comes back from behind to win in overtime? There was just one in Columbus tonight. There'll be some flipped cars in this town in the morning. This is what happened. The very poorly rated Columbus Blue Jackets Hockey team was set to play one of the top-ranked teams - the Colorado Avalanche. The Jackets are... let's say... not perfect. By mid second period, Columbus is down 2-0 when suddenly we slip in two goals one right after another. There are some fights during this time, and a lot of penalties. Then in the third, Colorado slips one in. Jacket come back and tie it, bring it into OT. Columbus wins in OT. That's like, not usual for them to beat a real good team. I'm getting this ranking info from my dad, so it isn't really accurate, but it's good enough that Columbus actually won a tight game.

Nice barely possible, come from behind, against all odds story. Anyone else love these things?

Colorado Avalanche use to be the Quebec Nordics.

What do you mean Alanta sold the flames to Calgary?

The Habs were facing the Leafs. It was a cup game and the leafs were willing 4 -2. The Rocket and his team change that in the last period, and won 6 - 4.

My fave team is the Canadaians. They are the best team in the NHL and I'll defend that untill some other team gains 14 Cups.

Got a couple of comeback stories in games that i played, but not hockey... One's basketball and one's Ultimate, but I do play roller hockey. Great fun, but being in England we're not really exposed to much ice hockey etc. in life or on TV.

Let me know if you would like to hear them anyway.

Unfortunatly, hockey has a harder time in the warm south. The Flames did good for a year or 2 but lack of intrest dropped the whole thing. Now they are trying again.
