Round up of whats going on

Memorial Cup
Alright so the mem cup was last night in Missasauga.... oh yea let me mention i am from Sudbury and i am a Wolves Fan..... anyways so the final game was last night between the Saint John Sea Dogs and the Toronto St. Michaels Majors ( yea i know but its bascicaly in Toronto). The majors hosted the tournament, were the best team in the CHL durring the regular season but still managed to loose in the OHL final to the Owen Sound Attack in Game 7 durring OT which really prooved to be worthless because they were both going to make it to the Memorial Cup anyways. I think that it is really funny that the Majors spent all this money and all that future for a really good team and the hosting of the tourny all to come home with nothing. I mean their name will not be on the Robertson Cup or the Memorial Cup. I mean this really sucks for Majors fans eh!........ but do they really derserve it? I mean I was thinking the majors were in the Memorial Cup because they were hosting, so did that mean that the GM of the Majors had to go out and give away the future of the team for a shot at competeing with Canadas best. I will give it to them they did have a really good coach. But I think the in the end the Sea Dogs deserved it a hell of a lot more, they won their league and they won the tournament all will a hard working small town team from New Brunswick ........and a possible top 5 NHL draft pick

And What the Hell is going on in Winnipeg
So everyday i am reading articles and posts and random stuff about the possiblity of Atlanta moving to Winnipeg, as a Canadian i would love to see an american city loose its team and winnipeg scooping up the leftovers but we have seen problems in the past and is this finally going to happen???? The day that the Globe and Mail broke the news that there was a possiblity of a relocation people went nuts espescially in Winnipeg, not knowing it was a false alrm. Today i was reading in on Bob Mackenzies twitter feed and he said the innipeg officials have already signed and the Atlanta officails just have to sign off today and the anouncement would be held tmrow. Today is Memorial day in the States so im not sure if the "officials" are on holidays or not. Personally i just want them to make the desision already, i am getting sick and tired of waiting...... but something tells me that it wont happen.

Stanley Cup finals start Wed.
So im going to throw in my two cents here and tell you that Vancouver will win. I am a leafs fan through and through then a bruins fan, but i really want Vancouver to win the Cup . I dont know why but i do. i dont want to make any predictions so i will leave it at that
