Who is Canada's rival now, still Russia or USA or Sweden?
The debate is on, who do we officially hate as our hockey rivals? Tradionally it's been the Russians, since 1972, we couldn't stand them.
Then comes the World Cup loss to the USA and Canadians start to recognize, hmmm, Russia, ehhh, no big deal anymore, but those Americans, they've gotten really good! They just beat us, so the anger turns to the USA.
Lately, because of some mouthy Players and Coaches, Sweden is starting to anger me, I had another word, but let's be civil. It started with their win at the Olympics and then their Juniors mouthing off the past few years about our talented Canadian squad.
My answer, screw them all, Canada is the best at hockey, will always be the best at hockey and the numbers show year after year. So bring on your Ovechkins, Backstroms and Parise. We are wearing GOLD and you just have a dream. Rivals, they're not rivals, THEY ARE WANNA BEEEES! |

SHOT BLOCKING MANIA! OUT OF CONTROL!
No idea man. I waver on this issue, but I prefer the get out the way of my shot mentality. It really throws me off. I'd rather blame myself if the puck goes in instead of a deflection cause a d-man decided to be a goalie without buying a set of pads. |

SHOT BLOCKING MANIA! OUT OF CONTROL!
Ok I am NOT a goalie, but I do play defense and when I played, we were told to let them shoot from the blueline or on the angles. Just clear the net so the goalie can see the puck. NOW it's block all the shots you can, IT"S out of control!!!!
Firstly, most players have no clue how to block a shot without getting hurt. I have never seen so many injuries and deflections causing so much pain and problems for goalies and their teams.
HELLO! Can someone tell me what is going on out there?
I coach now and play still, we were taught how to block a shot, it really isn't that tough, but yet i see NHL ers trying to block shots, that frankly cause nothing but chaos for a goalie.
Secondly, What is the purpose of having a goalie if you have no confidence in them to make a save from a blueline shot. I understand, force them out of lanes, but I can't count anymore how many goals are going in nets from deflections off of misplayed blocked shots.
Finally, can someone please look up stats, no no I will! Just how much man time is lost in the last 2 years from blocking shots, the figure i will bet is huge!!!!!

Battle of The Blades - Season 2
Your season 2 champions are...Val Bure and Katia Gordeeva!!!!
Canada made a great choice. These two were more skilled than any other team. Must be a Russian thing, haha. Regardless, it was a well-earned win for them and their charities.
The program ended quite smashingly. Looks like poor Katia dropped the trophy on the ice. Didn't see it happen but it was in pieces ALL OVER THE ICE. BGL's reaction was priceless.
One other thing: Violetta Afanasieva and her husband, Pete Dack, showed us what Extreme Skating is all about. All I have to say is.....WOW! An incredible performance. Got a great reaction from the crowd. In fact, there's a rumour going around that Launy and Dahlia are going to take up extreme skating!
What were your thoughts on the season finale and the entire season?

Kelly Chase and Kyoko Ina were eliminated tonight. The one time I thought they should advance, they get bumped off. Grr...
Poor Kelly looked devastated, but he certainly wasn't the strongest of the ramaining four.
Next week is the big finale and BOTB is down to the final 3:
Brisebois/Bourne, Bure/Katia & Warriner/Izzy (two habs and a leaf, btw)
If I had to pick, I'd say Patrice and Shae-lyn are taking home the prize. But don't count out the Russians or Todd and Izzy. It really is anyone's competition at this point. |

This week, the men had to do a 30-sec solo during their performance. Overall, Warriner/Izzy were the strongest.
Some notes:
- Briesbois/Bourne & the Russians, who have been flawless thus far, did not have great skates. It's a shame, but one of these pairs will probably be eliminated Monday.
- I've been hard on Kelly Chase and Kyoko Ina. But their performance today was really good. They've def booked a trip to the finale next week. Good on them.
- Kudos to Val Bure for picking Queen.
- Is it me or does Shae-Lyn Bourne look good in everything? Just askin'

No idea how Kelly is still there. He has the sympathy, weight loss, and "work ethic" card goin for him I guess. That said, he's doin well for an enforcer.
Fleury did chocke indeed, and yes, Patrice is the dark horse, but man Val n Katia can skate. Russians...go figure.

Theo Fleury and Jamie Sale have been eliminated. To put it simply, they choked.
Fleury slipped and fell near the end of the routine and then nearly threw Sale into the ice. They were clearly the better team; better than the other skate-off team of Warriner/Brasseur. But they simply couldn't get it done.
In other news, I'm amazed how Kelly Chase and Kyoko Ina are still in the competition. More amazed how they weren't in the bottom two tonight. I guess Chase is this season's Tie Domi.

Alright, folks. Some damn fine stuff we saw tonight. Here's my top 3:
1. Brisebois/Bourne
2. Fleury/Sale
3. Bure/Gordeeva
Some notes...
- I'm never going to look at Todd Warriner the same way again. haha!
- Fleury is a disco machine.
- Brisebois is the Season 2's dark horse
- DJ Tanner cameo
- Toller Cranston was his usual self.
Thoughts? Feelings? Opinions?
