Who will win the Stanley Cup?

Canes in 7

what's the stanley cup?

Tonight should be interesting. I don't think these two teams faced each other all season, so there should be a period of them feeling out each other.

I got Oilers in 6. I've watched them the entire postseason and they are playing great right now. The Oilers are not your typical 8 seed. They are loaded.

IN defense of swoosh I could actually see someone asking that...I can't remeber the trophy name for the NBA or the NFL. I think the NFL one is the Vince Lopmbardi Trophy.

It was either a joke on his part or he is retarded. I am not going to ask which one.

Your thread reads "NHL Finals" and then asks in the poll "Who wins the Stanley Cup?" Simple deduction would lead one to figure out that the winner of the NHL would get the Stanley Cup, whether they knew what it was or not. It is reasonable to think that he or anyone who follows sports would know what the NHL is, right? There are only 4 major sports in the U.S.

it was most definitely a joke. sports center feels the same way as me. they buried Stanley Cup coverage in the second half of the show. it was like "michelle wie hits a birdie... and in other news the oilers are in raliegh to play the canes for Lord Stanley's Cup."

Of the 4 major sports in America, it is still the only trophy presented to the TEAM, not the owner.

hockey is a major sport? i bet the ratings would beg to differ. so what if the trophy is presented to the team, does that make the game more enjoyable?

Bad news for the Oilers. Looks as though their goalie is out for the finals. Tough blow because he was outstanding in the net.

Yes

i guess i've just always considered there to be only 3 major sports in this country.

Major sport? consider this: the 1st game of the stanley cup finals got lower ratings than the arizona/northwestern women's softball championship!! as if that wasn't enough, the hockey game got an estimated 611,000 viewers. You call that a major sport?
