Ron McLean, HNIC presenter, quoted the lyrics to Alive in reference to the Vancouver Canucks potential for elimination from the Stanley Cup finals tonight.

It was kinda funny :D and very cool 8-)

    It was a little weird but when the camera panned the United Centre I thought it seemed fitting. Looking forward to August. Go Hawks... lesser of two evils in this Flames fan's world. Yes... sour grapes and unpatriotic.

    That third period was just a mess! A MESS!! Goal after goal after goal! What was going on???
    Well, no Canadian team for the next round. D'oh! I was so hoping for those hab bums through. lol

    I'm pretty confused & sad that Nova Scotia, the birth place of hockey, doesn't even have an NHL team. :?
    Money is everything, in the world of sports!
