Well. The Sens win, and the Leafs lose.

I rather enjoyed last night's Flames/oil game. It seemed more like an old school Calgary/Edmonton game, back from when people really cared about the rivalry -- and I don't even know how to further explain what I mean.
The problem is, that only works if the teams are at about parity. The same thing happened to the Battle of Ontario - the Sens got better and the Leafs got worse and now it's boring.DBR said:
Another playoff round, be it Calgary/Edmonton, Vancouver/Edmonton, Calgary/Van....it will trigger something big.
But there's one head-scratcher out there that has even the experts thoroughly stumped -- why do the vast majority of Canadian hockey players shoot left while the vast majority of their American counterparts shoot right?
...
Last year in the Canadian-dominated NHL, nearly 60 per cent of players shot left. Among defencemen, the number was closer to 70 per cent. Broken down by nationality, 73 per cent of the top 30 Canadian scorers last year shot left. Among the top 30 American scorers, only 53 per cent shot left.

Well I shoot left and a lot of guys I know shoot left too. I'm Canadian in case you were wondering.
