Ice Hockey -- Stanley Cup Finals

So, I know that most of you have little respect for North American sports but my home town team (Detroit Red Wings) are on the verge of lifting the Cup yet again. They are up 3-1 in a best of 7 series vs Pittsburgh. Game 5 (in Detroit, aka Hockeytown) is on Now Sports7 live at 8am on Tuesday (replay at 6:30pm). If you want to watch the very best of this sport, this would be a good one to catch. Lidstrom and Zetterberg are amazing. Personally, I think hockey players are probably the best athletes out there playing a team sport.

Not true, I'm a big MLB fan and I know N10 is quite keen on his gridiron as is Linesmann and ETP..

Have been a New England Patriot fan for about 30 yrs . My second love to my beloved Spurs . Coys

I love NBA. I've never really followed the NHL though other than those occassional clips when it all goes off in the rink. They definitely are the best scraps in sport.

I like the look of Baseball but I have never watched a proper game or know the rules or understand anything that is going on
