On a side note, as someone with Slovenian heritage, it would be nice to see Kopitar take the Cup home. Being the first Slovenian born NHLer, I am pretty sure it would be the first time the Cup traveled to Slovenia.

Just found out that Quick bunked with one of my cousins in college.

A tremendous talent (Quick) - my cousin went on to play a year or two in Europe.

Quick is making the big bucks and is earning a raise !

NJ all the way, but the calie boys are quick. Unless the devils fall apart, I think the series finishes in a double overtime 7th game.

Teddy, Unfortunately most of the terms I picked up from my grandparents are less than endearing; though now I know how to say little devil in Slovene. I did learn some common words and phrases to make travel easier.

It is looking like the Kings will soon be crowned. They are flying tonight. T

They fall apart in game three...when they got that two man advantage, tied at 0-0, I thought, ok here we go...what a train wreck! It may also support the argument of youth vs age, the Kings are so fast on the ice the Devils appear old an slow, but its not over yet...

Is that right Big T, for my oversight, PM your Address, I'll send you 2, unless you want to double up; should I lose I send a case, but I'm still thinking - 7 games and Devils in OT. it's 3-2 currently, with the Kings leading the series.
