44 Reasons to Watch the Stanley Cup Finals


ESPN's Page 2 presents 44 reasons to watch the Cup finals, including the funny-because-it's-true ("Not one word about Roger Clemens or Spygate"), the snarky ("Brian Engblom's hair"), and the dead-on correct ("Unlike in the NBA Finals, the last minute of a Stanley Cup finals game doesn't take 45 minutes." and "HD technology has improved the viewing experience of hockey more than in any other sport except perhaps women's beach volleyball.").

Check out the list here for a Friday chuckle and a few terrific YouTube links to hockey vids.

@ Biff:
Heh, well that's not so much an endorsement of NHL refs as an indictment of the rampant incompetence of the officials in the NFL, NBA & MLB. And remember, they're talking about NHL officials, NOT the abysmal refs who worked the IIHF tourney.
