Carolina wins the Cup



RALEIGH, N.C. — Rod Brind'Amour lifted the Stanley Cup above his head, tears of joy streaming down his face. This one was for the captain and all those Carolina old-timers whose names are going on hockey's most revered trophy for the first time. Full story

All I have to say is, hell yeah! Good for Carolina, good for Raleigh, and good for the NHL southeast division. Those Canadians can't stand the fact that Lord Stanley's cup has resided in the southern U.S. the last three years.

This just goes to show you, it doesn't matter the size of the city or the location. Hockey can thrive anywhere as long as there is talent on the ice.
