I saw much of the Stanley Cup game 6 in Calgary. It was an amazing game, definitely a refresher course on how exciting hockey can be. The Sea of Red is unbelievable. It’s one thing to have everyone wearing red, but the same freakin’ shade? I still don’t have any sort of rooting interest in the series. I know most old-school hockey fans are pulling for Calgary, rooting for Canada and against the dimwitted southern expansion. Yet as Fred pointed out, the Flames are a bit of a boondoggle themselves, not an Original Six, an Expansion Six or even a WHL team. I will probably end up rooting for the Flames, if just to see the Cup where it belongs. Especially since this might be the last one for a while.
