New jersey wins the cup
 

Dun dun dun

New Jersey Devils Beat Anaheim Mighty Ducks 3-0 to win their 3rd Stanley Cup :( Poor Anaheim. J.S. Giguere won the Conn Smythe Trophy, but got booed out of the arena :P

What did all of you NHL fans think about the game? :D

*does the cabbagepach* go de-vils go de-vils go de-vils!

cans you tell who i rooted for?! :D :D

Guess there wil be no D4: The Mighty Ducks movie... :evil:

Devils cheated!!!!

yeah, the NJ fans showed a lot of class :roll:

I'm not happy with it. I seriously hate the Devils. I'm glad to see Schawby with the cup though! :) I think it was pretty distasteful for the fans to boo JSG when he went up to except the Conn Smythe. Just another reason to dislike cities like NJ.

Well that will be the ONLY title NJ will win...

GO SPURS!!!! 8)

woah....guy just because a bunch of ass holes booed some guy doesn't mean you gotta hate the entire city....we'll bust a cap in yo-oh sorry.....but don't hate NY or brooklyn....or you'll really get it...

Corey Schwabb? (sp?) I dont think he gets his name on the cup tho, because he didnt play 25 games though? Does he still get a Stanley Cup ring? If I was him and I didn't get anythign but a team photo, i'd be raising hell :P

Wouldn't it be cool if the Nets won the NBA Finals too? Same state wins hockey and basketball championships! I wonder if that's ever happened before....

Hrm... I don't know what they teach you kids in Geography Class up there in "America Jr.", but New Jersey is a STATE, not a city. And yeah, a lot of us are jerks, but New Yorkers made us that way. They come down and pollute the Boardwalk every year, act like they own the whole state just because they're from "New Yawk", cause traffic accidents because it's a proven fact New Yorkers CAN'T DRIVE (how could they? Ever see the traffic in New York City? You can't learn how to actually drive, you're in a constant state of slowing down), and then squawk their superiority incessantly. PLUS, they claim ownership of the Statue of Liberty even though it's technically on Jersey's side of the water.

Maybe that explains why one of the state's biggest-selling souvenier shirts reads "Welcome to New Jersey... Now GO HOME."

As for the Cup, I was rooting for the Ducks this time ONLY because it would be so deliciously ironic for the Stanley Cup Champions to be named after an Emilio Estevez movie. :evilgrin: But hey, whenever NJ wins, it's not a BAD thing... it's a GOOD thing.

lmao, I thought that New Jersey was a city as well... But after you said that I remembered that it was a state :P

Man, and here everyone talks about how "America Jr." has such a great educational system as compared to the USA. Meanwhile you guys get states and cities confused. :lol:

It wouldn't be so bad except I always hear Canadian people whining about how Americans don't know where places like Sasketoon or Calgary are. meanwhile, you guys are just as bad as we are! :lol:

Not only is NJ a state, but if I'm not mistaken we're the biggest pharmaceutical manufacturer in the U.S.

(Bill Murray voice) "Which is nice, y'know... we got that goin' for us..."

We got an American History class thats about it. We teach "Canadian Geography". I knew it was a state and yes they were being jerks to boo JSG just because their players didn't get it. JSG was great throughout the playoffs and I wished that Anahiem would have taken it in New Jersey but they didn't. Oh yeah and about Schwab I hope he got a playoff ring!

Ack...don't remind me who won. *runs off to the MDTAS board she's on to pout* :( :cry:
*Calls* I WANTED THE DUCKS TO WIN!!!! :cry: :tcry:

Well I'm sorry to have offended you Leo. I don't know the US. I've never made fun of any American's not knowing anything about Canada because I know nothing about the US. It is true that most people from Canada do know quite a bit about the States though. I just assumed it was a city because I've never heard of a state getting a sports team. Also when I meant dislike the city, I didn't mean as a whole. I meant as a hockey community. The same goes for NY and Philly. There are some really bad fans in those stands. The only rude fan base in Canada I can think of is Montreal. They got some real losers over there, booing the US national anthem, which I thought was a complete disgrace. I still think it's ashame that we got bashed real bad when that happened and then when the Leafs went to Philly they booed our anthem and nothing was said about it.

Actually you didn't offend me, I probably should have made that more clear. Sometimes I forget that just because I'm a smartass, that doesnt mean people interpret me as being less than serious. Heh.

It does bother me when people "dis" NJ, but only because I've lived here all my life and I have a fierce sense of state pride. But I don't try to take it on a personal level. No harm no foul, compadre.

States do often get sports teams. New York Giants (who play in New Jersey, which I don't get)... Florida Marlins. Colorado... something.... can't remember. But yeah it does happen. Oh, and the New Jersey Nets.

And a lot of Americans are rude, especially sports fans. Sometimes patriotism goes too far and just becomes boorish, rude behavior.

I make fun of Canada a lot but on the whole I dig 'em. Surprisingly, I think Montreal has good fans. Maybe because I'm a huge wrestling fan and Montreal is ALWAYS a hot crowd, they get into it like very few other places in the world. And a lot of the best professional wrestlers do come from Canada, so I got lots of love for good ol' "America Jr." :wink:

Hahaha, rarely do I see a Canadian make a mistake like that, now that I do it is hilarious. I mean, our own President didn't know where the Pacific Ocean was on a map. Yes, so far my state won Hockey, now lets get Basketball title and hopefully Yankees will win it for baseball, and yes, I know they are NY...

It's not really a mistake as much as I just made an assumption that states don't get teams. I'm among few that don't bother to learn anything about the US in geography. I know little about Canada as well so it evens out.

And remember, when you make an assumption, you make an ass out of "u" and "umption". :D

At least you admit not really paying attention. I admit not knowing very much about Canada, but I also would have problems naming all 50 states and forget state capitals, don't even go there. So yeah, it all evens out.

But yes, as I said, quite a few states do get sports teams. I just have to go on record and say that "The Canadians" is the single most uninspired name for a sports team, EVER. (Is that Montreal, I can't remember?)

Yeah. The Montreal Canadians. It is a pretty uninspired name, but at least it's better than The Mighty Ducks.
