US: they play hockey in the olympics?

national sporting event.
Canada: who do you want to win the championship?

US: oh it doesnt matter, my teams not in it anymore. how bout you?

Canada: Any canadian team so we can beat the americans!

US:

um. sure, whatever.

hehehe. i actually think most want calgary to win just cuz they're underdogs. so basically everyone is rooting for calgary anyway.

It is totally not like that. We are rooting for Calgary because they are the only Canadian team left, and we want the cup to return to Canada. We are not making it into a Canada vs. USA thing. Actually, you saying that is the first time I ever heard of Flames vs. TB as Canada vs. America.

In fact, isn't it like 62% of the players in this years finals are Canadian? lol. So if both sides win, its goin to Canadians, but we want the Flames to win so a Canadian team can have the cup for the first time since Montreal did it in 1993.

Well, America dominates Football, Basketball and Baseball. Hockey is one of the only major league sports that Canada absolutely OWNS, lol.
