World Hockey Championships

After going 3-4 last night in softball, we won 35-3, I spent too much time at Cass Street Bar and Grill and was useless this morning. I missed the Russians win over Finland this morning. Wednesday night, the US was playing Finland, the game was going to OT. I said to Carl, I can pay the 5 bucks for this game but the US will lose as soon as I sign up. Sure enough, I turn the game on and I watch Finland celebrating. My friend Samuli in Finland says the US has not beaten Finland since 1991.

I am watching Sweden-Canada, 2-2 tie right now. Getslaf just scored a sweet goal, the Isles need some guys like him.

I just read in Newsday how Dave Milicki- back to hockey, Jamal Mayers just scored for Canada, 3-2 Canada, I have never heard of Jamal.

OK, here is the Mlicki link, dude was born one day before me, played in the majors, now hangs with his sons and plays golf, very nice.

I am thinking of retiring and composing my blog 24-7, please send me money so I can do this.


Kenny Jonsson still playing for Sweden, though he is out for this game, he was always hurt as an Islander too.



Anton Stralman scores! Tie game!

I never heard of this dude before but he has two goals and two penalties tonight.

Rick Nash with a sweet goal, I have heard of him despite the fact that he plays in Columbus, Ohio. 4-3 Canada.

Swedes, no D, Mike Green scores with 7 seconds left in the second. Nice wrister, reminds me of myself.
