Waiting for a miracle.

Aw fuck. Some random notes.

* Jussi played great. The first 'canes goal was the result of some dodgy lateral movement, but overall, you can't fault him for the loss. He held them in it and he's probably the only Oiler who can hld his head high today.

* Pronger fucked up. I never thought I'd see those words, let alone write them, but there it is. The big man's giveaway, which led to the winning goal, cost the Oilers the series.

* Sergei Samsanov can get away with a no-look behind the back pass. No one else on the Oilers can, but that didn't stop them from trying, which cost them at least three quality scoring chances.

* At this point, it's almost worth taking two just to run down Ward, nor can I think of any better purpose for that meat sack on skates Laraques.

*Meanwhile, the PP stunk. Again. Has there ever been a team in the Finals that has had as many 5 on 3 advantages and faled to capitalize?

*The World Cup is the gretest spectacle in sports.

*It speaks volumes about the size and fervour of the 'canes fan base that they have to troll Oilers fan blogs to find others they can talk hockey with. They are also dirtbags.

*Tomorrow's a big day. Both Ukraine and Germany are in action, so I've got a 1 in 3 chance of someone I'm cheering for winning agame tomorrow. But with my luck....
