Penguins win the CUP!!!!!

It ain't over til the fat lady sings, and boy did she sing on Fri night. I'am not a Pittsburgh fan, but I certainly enjoyed watching them beat the Red Wings especially because Detroit pretty much garanteed they would win. It just goes to show you that you can build a great team that seems unbeatable then bring on Pittsburgh who everyone thought didn't stand a chance and voila' they get the job done.

My take on that win has everything to do with the fact that Pittsburgh has about 2x as many Canadian born players as Detroit. I'am Canadian and its no secret that we love our hockey its in our genes. There is something to be said about Canadian Heart , and our hockey players you can win with talent but you gotta have heart. So NHL owners load your teams with Canadians oh yeah you already do.
