win Lord Stanley's Cup anymore? Its been what....a quarter of a century since the Cup has been home in America's stocking cap?

1 word "money".imo

Wasn't that addressed back in the 90s? Now aren't all players paid in USD? I would think that Canadians would make better and more valuable hockey fans than say....Los Angeles.

Money is the whole answer. It's not an even playing field at all.

Well how many Canadian hockey players are playing for American teams?

Just under 50% of the NHL is Canadian players

I think you should have just left the thread blank. "Why can't Canada _________"

Well Duh,


They Can't Win Because They're Canadians.

Since Trudeau Took Over As Leader Of The "Country" It's Become A Nation Of Wussies.


And Did I Mention They Have Bad Food Up There.

And Have You Not Seen Their Monopoly Money Covered With Pictures Of The Queen.

I'd Say If BOCO Became Prime Minister, He'd Whip Canada Into Shape In Short Order !

If You Think It's Bad Now, Wait Until Trudeau Legalizes Recreational Marijuana.

No More Kids Pond Hockey Training All Over Canada Every Winter Once They Are Stoned.

They'll All Become Munchie Crazed Couch Potatos Stuffing Their Faces With Poutine And Canadian Bacon and Saying: Pass The Bong !!

It All Over, Eh ?

w

in the next 2 years a Canadian team will challenge for/win the cup.

Challenge....well maybe....win...doubt it.

It's like my little cousin that got left in the cold, challenging me for something. He can try all he wants but....he's my frostbitten little cousin.....he'll just end up embarrassing himself.

Who's the last American captain to hoist the cup?

I'll give you a hint. He was only the second American to do so...

Well of course....I always let me little cousin feel good when we do things together. It's called pity.

the canadian's go home in the olympics play pretty good

Will be interesting to watch the Olympics this years since the NHL didn't release skaters to play for their countries. All amateurs again.

I don't mind the Amateurs, but i think it would have been fun for at least Canada to send their World Junior team. Great experience and great way to get their names out there. I still think they'd compete well. But let's be honest, because the KHL will send players, it's gonna be tough to beat the Russians

Aren't the Russians banned this year or is that only certain sports?

Russians can go. They just can't compete under the Russian name, flag or have the Russian anthem played. Basically they have to go as independents.
