Hockey in Alberta


Ya gotta love  those fans......







Two boys are playing hockey on a frozen pond in Red Deer, Alberta, when one of the boys is suddenly attacked by a crazed Rottweiler.   Thinking quickly, the other boy takes his hockey stick, shoves it under the dog's collar, twists it, and breaks the dog's neck, saving his friend.
A reporter is strolling by, sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy.   Young Flames Fan Saves Friend From Viscious Animal" he starts writing in his book.
"But I'm not a Flames Fan" the little hero replies.   "Sorry, but as we are in
Alberta, I just assumed you were" says the
reporter and he starts writing again. "Oilers Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack" he writes in his
notebook.  "I'm not an Oilers
fan either" the little boy says  "Oh, I assumed that everyone in
Alberta was either for the Flames or the Oilers. What team do you root for?" the reporter asks.    I am a Maple Leafs fan" the boy replies.

The reporter starts a new page in his notebook and writes:
Little B@stard from
Ontario Kills Beloved Family Pet"

I go to this site almost every day and really enjoy it. I had to respond to the hockey in Alberta I love the joke.I know there are many Hockey fans out there who are diehard Leaf fans.I am a diehard Canadian (HABS) fan from way back.I listened to HNIC on the radio every Saturday night sitting in the kitchen boy that is a long time ago!!! Does anyone remember when we use to get the Habs games every Saturday night in Montreal.Danny Galavan the best announcer in hockey.I wonder what ever happened to Habs Saturday night hockey in Montreal.I,along with many others across this country are fed up with Sat,hockey HNIC. Hockey fans are now calling it HOCKEY NIGHT IN TORONTO.Even the Montreal Gazette has had cartoons and the sport writers make comments about the Leafs all the time.Montreal has retired 2 Jerseys this year Boom Boom # 5 and Serge Savard #18 CBC was not there.Here in Quebec at least we can watch it in french.I don't think you could get  RDS (the french station) in Williams lake B.C unless you have a satelite dish.Maybe Montreal is getting punished for not winning a cup since1993 or maybe it is because we have won to many cups LOL! We have had 2 or 3 Sat, night games 2 was because the Leafs were in Montreal or T.O.Ron Mclean,Don Cherry Harry Neal all dislike Montreal it is all about the Leafs go figure.I am happy now I got it off my chest LOL!.Oh yes I did send CBC a couple of e-mails to let them know what I think.

Right you are DeeDee,..........I too am a Habs Fan,.....but unfortunatley for us (& you it would seem) CBC  was outbid by RDS, that's why we no longer get the CBC games on CBUFT out here(CBC'a French channel),....for many years (after I had to get used to watching a hockey game ,starting at 4 in the afternoon,) but I did get to see Habs Games,from the old Forum,then the Molson Center,and briefly from the Bell Centre,until RDS outbid CBC for the Habs feed,........(more likely they paid off the right people,that's usually how it works..........hahahaha) but now HNIC does broadcast predominantly toronto games,on Saturday Night's,....I agree it's a shame the Habs actually sold out to RDS ,but that's the way it goes,.I don't care to watch the t.o. games...(I hate them.......hahaha) TSN  is just as bad (they call it the toronto sports network.....hahaha)  they too think the leafs are the only team in the NHL Unfortunaelty toronto (soley due to Geographic position) has a very large ,viewing area,which is incredibly lucrative,and so that's what will be shown......$$$$$$$  tops Sport & Calibre of play everytime,as witnessed by the lack of productivity of the leafs for 40 years,(albeit they seem to be better so far this year)which generally means they are mapping out the Stanley Cup Route once again...................hahahahahaha  Here's there Parade Plans over the past 40 years:     ...hahahahah

Hi Les..... I agree that RDS out bid CBC the thing I do not understand is why do we only get the Leafs games on Saturday nights when we have 3 teams in the east. Hamilton has been wanting a team for years I don't really think it is Buffalo that is stopping them I think it is more the Leafs they know they will lose many of there fans. I think it was last Saturday night? the leafs were playing as soon as it was over they switched to the Senators game in Attawa only 7 minuets left in that game .CBC is suppose to be Canadian ??? I am sure if they took a survey across this country they would find more HABS fans than Leafs fans by far.My daughter lives in Vancouver and works for the Canucks the Leafs are disliked out there also.Don Cherry just hates the Habs now he likes them (just a little) because we have Kurt Muller as an assistant couch I think Muller is from Kitchiner Ont,that is why Cherry likes the Habs a little Lol !!!,I watched the Habs last night and they lost I will forgive them this time Lol!! RDS has all the Habs games, away games and home games.I just figured out why we carry all Leafs games on HNIC because our Prime Minister is a LEAFS FAN Lol!!!! Nice to talk to you Les.Have a nice day. P.S The Leafs will be in Montreal Sat,so will HNIC (CBC) Woo Hoo
