STANLEY CUP FINAL MATCHUP TIED AT 3-3; PUCK DROPS SHORTLY AFTER 8 P.M.
The 2006 Stanley Cup Final is tied at three games apiece between the Edmonton Oilers and the Eastern Conference Champion Carolina Hurricanes, with Game 7 taking place tonight at the RBC Center in Raleigh. The first 18,000 fans in attendance will receive rally towels, courtesy of Harris Teeter and Mix 101.5 FM, and Game Day Cards, compliments of OLN and Litho Industries. Puck drop is shortly after at 8 p.m. - catch all the action on NBC and on the Hurricanes Radio Network.
As a neutral party, I am hoping for overtime. There's nothing better in sports than a game 7 hockey overtime. Pinch in a defenseman and maybe you win the game--or, if the other team stops the shot and gets a rush, you lose the game.
Been a wild 'n' wacky series. I had forgotten how much I enjoy hockey.
Someone said the Stanley Cup Finals were only on OLN.
The first two games were on OLN; they've been on NBC since game three.
Who to pick based on Limbaugh's environmentalist whacko method:
Oilers exploit the Earths' natural resources, and destroy the habitats of native wildlife. Gasoline contributes to global warming.
On the other hand, Hurricanes are caused by global warming.
90 degrees in Boston right now. Sure feels like Stanley Cup weather :)
I may go back and forth between Sox-Nationals on NESN,
Yanks-Phillies on ESPN, and Stanley Cup on NBC. 'Canes used
to be Hartford Whalers of course.
GOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLL Hurricanes.

This is eye-riveting.
That should be the end of that. Quite a hard-fought battle.
My hat's off to the Oilers, but my heart's in Carolina tonight. GO HURRICANES! 3-1, Carolina!
