Well, I am very happy for Oilers' and thier fans Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. For those of you in Europe who don't know, the Edmonton Oilers are 1 of six Canadian NHL Hockeys teams and the Oiler just won their way into the most important playoff series in Hockey, the Stanley Cup finals!!!
I am not personally an Edmonton Oiler fan but I am very proud because they're a Canadian team nonetheless. I am not a Montreal Canadiens Fan either, even though I am born and raised in Montreal. However, I love the Ottawa Senators who are arguably the most talented team in the NHL, but as it is apparent, talent doesn't get you into the finals if you have no heart. The NHL now has 30 teams within this professional hockey league however there are only 6 canadian teams left. This is an important fact since at one point in the league's 106 years of existence there was at least 10 Canadian* teams.
So my faith is with the Edmonton Oilers to represent Canada and bring back the Stanley cup back to Canada. This is very important because Hockey is Canada's Unoffical National Sport. Canada prides itself with producing some of the best hockey player's ever to live, including Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux and upcoming future of Canadain hockey Sydney Crosby!
Go Oilers and go Hockey Canada, bring back hockey to Canada!!!
