Isn't it nice to know that your Canadian friends have four of the top 8 spots in the NHL, with Toronto and Edmonton in particular stomping everybody?<

Isn't it nice for YOU to know that the two best teams in the league, the Red Wings and Blackhawks, are from the U.S.? INCLUDING the 2002 Stanley Cup champions? And it seems that your Canadian teams can't hold a lead - what, 4-1 to the Red Wings, lost in the third period? Hah. Never count out the Yanks, Nakor. <

yeah..what RAYS said. (the doctor is in the house)<i></i>

[Nakor BlueRider]

Okay, to start, top 8 matters right now, not top 2. Second, do you <i> really</i> expect me to be worried about <i> Chicago</i>!? You must be insane! (Kewl.) Blech! They've got some sort of streak going sure, but I'll be surprised as hell if it lasts.<
><
>Oh, and as for Detroit, they haven't had any hard games recently. The Canuckleheads aren't even worth mentioning this season, they're about as dead as a team gets. Oh, and did I mention that your 4-1 game happened a mere 4 days after Vancouver shut them out 3-0? They were also shut out by Calgary just before that... I admit they're doing well, but hey, what good is hockey without a challenge. I await the 28th; it should be a good game.<
><
>I'm just trying to figure out how on Earth the Maple Leafs bounced back so quickly; they're doing much better this season than I, and probably most, would have expected!<
><
>The only teams I have problems with are Colorado and New Jersey. I enjoy any game where those two are thoroughly stomped. (I know, I know, I've picked two good teams to hate. So what? Makes it more fun when they lose...)<
><
>I've got two fantasy hockey teams on Yahell right now. If Yahell would let me log in, I would post links to see them and the leagues they're in, but as per usual, Yahell is being its irritating usual self and isn't working properly. (Something about a gateway error or somesuch.) If and when I can log in, I'll post the links. <i>Bwa hua hua hua hua!<

And Yahoo returns to the world of order! Here's the links:<

>Head-to-Head league:<
>hockey.fantasysports.yaho...8052&mid=2<
><
>Rotisserie league:<
>hockey.fantasysports.yaho...&lid=47919<
><
>Don't have much to do with my Canada/America argument, but I thought I'd post them up. Rotisserie gives points to the players in each of the 10 stat areas based on rank. Head-to-Head pits teams against each other for 1 week each match. Each stat area counts as a game, and you get 2 pts for a win, 1 pt for a tie, 0 pts for a lost statistic. Top 6 of 12 positions have a chance at first in the playoffs. <i>Bwa hua hua hua hua!<

I will give it to you on the Colorado-New Jersey thing...seeing the two of them in last year's final blew a goat and a half... <

*Adds for Nakor to not say anything bad about the Stars either or it's fireball time from ME!* <i></i>

[Nakor BlueRider]

Dallas? Hmm... Lesse here...<
><
>*pulls out a pair of spectacles and peers down into a little booklet* Ah, here they are... Hmm... Mmhmm... I see... How interesting...<
><
>It says here that the Dallas Stars are a team meant only to fill up positions and give the other teams free points to make them feel better when they're not doing well, and give them a team to look forward to playing. Such honourable, kind players, though they do periodically put middle-class teams like Detroit to shame. <

Interesting analysis Nakor... I totaly agree with you. <i></i>

[DEVILRAYS]

Nakor, I might just have to give Mr. Weight a buzz over that one... <
