According to Slam Sports in Canada, Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson played friend Max Lizondo in a match at the Royal Ottawa Golf Club recently, with Alfredsson putting up three tickets for the Stanley Cup Finals against Lizondo’s $100. Lizondo won, taking home the tickets that Alfredsson said he’d have given him anyway.
This story is interesting on several levels. Mostly for the fact that, wow, the Stanley Cup Finals are starting. How about that. I wasn’t completely sure they still held that event. Bully for them.
Anyway, good luck to Anaheim Ducks in the finals against Alfredsson’s Senators. I’m originally from that neck of the woods, and I’d love to see the NHL’s holy grail head to an area that just could care less about hockey. Ok, maybe “love” is too strong a word. How about this: I’d briefly take notice if Anaheim won the Stanley Cup, perhaps going as far as nodding.
I tease hockey, but its players and fans are by and large great people. They just can’t accept the awful reality that hockey really isn’t a sport. It’s figure skating gone horribly awry.
