I hope I speak for most when I say, 3 games is enough.....The other 4 hours is just cbc travelling to redneck towns......But I do LOVE watching ron Maclean....he is the only thing keeping cbc watchable (well, outside of the hockey games themselves)

| Dude stop with your "redneck towns". It's all Canada and frankly, the more places that hockey is played within Canada, the better it is for our national program. Before you criticize other hockey towns in Canada, eliminate the drug problem in Vancouver. |

3 hrs. only .........per prior unavoidable engagements.Otherwise it would be 6 hrs. having NO distractions (except for putting in alot of effort making certain that she's openning beers for the guys in a timely fashion).....with the final 3 hrs. being only marginally attentive while playing Texas Hold Up.
You're correct Harper.Nucks should hammer Leafs as Van is HOT , as of late , and Leafs are banged up (7 regulars out ).....................So , my call..........Leafs win." ALL IN ". |

Hey all, first post here and thought Id chime in on a few things here. First off I LOVE Hockey Day in Canada. Its not all about plopping down in front of the tube. In our neighbourhood (weather permitting) we have a TV outside with the games on, play road hockey and have a BBQ (sort of like a day long tailgate party. Its an awsome event! We get all the kids in the neigbourhood involved as personally I dont see enough kids out playing road hockey these days. Its a great day and fast becoming an unoffical national holiday. Have fun and enjoy all
Dont be hatin' |

okay this is for "i hate crosby"
how can you call yourself a canadian hockey fan when you call parts of Canada redneck towns, and call ppl who like crosby not Canadian, sure he has some dumb commercials, but he is a true Canadian kid, playing hockey all his life and living up to his dreams. You also seem to make stupid comments every day, 90% of which make completely no sense at all, how can you call yourself a true hockey fan with all the bullcrap you say every day. But calling small Canadian towns redneck, that is as low as you can possibly go, and I think I speak for most people when I say that everybody has had enough of your stupid, retarded comments, its just giving everybody a headache thinking that someone can call themself a Canadian Hockey fan when they say stuff like you do.

| Hey leigh thanks for the welcome. come on down, the more the merrier and its a blast. Im guessing though you aren't too close to the Toronto area though are you? Or are you a transplanted Flames fan? I live in a town north of the big city called Stouffville. This will be the third year we've done this and I cant wait til tomorrow! 15 mins of work left then going to do the big shop for the big day! Have fun tomorrow everyone. OH THE GOOD OLD HOCKEY GAME, ITS THE BEST GAME YOU CAN NAME!!!! Yee Haw! |

But yet, I HATE CROSBY has the balls to create an account and put a name with his opinion and you my friend hide behind an anonymous post. Take 5 minutes and create an account, you seem to have a lot to say. |

Campbell River, B.C.
Sad to see the Leafs play so poorly in such an important and highly pubicized game. What did you expect from a team of "veterans" feeling the pressure while playing under the magnifying glass on Hockey Day in Canada?
As for the Canucks, "Well Done Laddies!" "Well Done!"
Sincerely,
Phoenix Starter |

Hey all you Canadians & Mik!. Have a great day! That Habs/Sens game was a blow out! I'm heading out for the afternoon and tuning back in to watch the Flames crush the Oil! 
I get all fuzzy inside on Hockey Day in Canada! |

What an AMAZING world we live in .......The PYRAMIDS , The WALL OF CHINA , QUANTUM PHYSICS and JESSICA SIMPSON acting .........Now this !!!! The LEAFS with SEVEN (Thats one third of a roster ) regulars out of their line up , dig down deep in overcoming their adversity,to come up with a victory over the favoured surging Canucks (Only ONE loss in past 8 ).....AMAZING ...It's a testament of this HOCKEY DAY IN CANADA where winning comes from TEAM WORK , not from more talent on the ice .
Yours Truely ,
The GLOWING MALE . |

They probably should have thought a bit harder about which saturday to put HDIC..........I watched the first game, but then I realized, it's the best weekend in the NFL! HDIC is good...But it's the regular season. I think I speak for a lot of when I say, a win or go home nfl game is probably more entertaining then the 15th battle of alberta in as many weeks.

Yes but Canadians care more about hockey and they aren't gonna miss HDIC for the NFL. The Ravens and the Colts were playing (they're huge rivals...long story) and everyone around here's been going crazy about the game, cuz the Ravens are our local NFL team. The Ravens lost, so they're probably gonna go even more crazy. I could care less though, the Sabres were on at 7 last night! |

Hmmmmm, I wonder about that!!!!! I'm sure a lot of canadians like football too!!!!!!!! The point is, it's not regular season football, It's the 3rd last week!!!!!....And The NFL games yesturday were way better than the HDIC ones (what, was the average score in the hockey games like, 8-3 or something like that...that's not too entertaining) (ps sabers are ok...Great coach!!!!!)
