I don't usually follow much hockey but this year my home town team is vying for the Stanley Cup. It's the Ottawa Senators vs the Anaheim Mighty Ducks. There are many reasons we need to win: A Canadian team hasn't won the cup since 1993 when the Montreal Canadiens beat Los Angeles. The other team is called "the Ducks" and is named after a Disney movie. Ottawa fans are deeply devoted to their team so a win would be the ultimate party for the city. I had just moved to Montreal the last year they won the cup so it would also be nice to be in another cup winning city. That was the 100th year of the Stanley Cup and also the year the Senators were reborn into the NHL. I don't really watch much hockey but I am enjoying the spectacle. So far it's 2:1 Anaheim:Ottawa in the play-offs.

  1. It's weird that there are more Canadians on the Ducks than the Sens.
