Of course!! Why Tony is practically bursting with pride over his local Hurricanes, I'm sure. North Carolina is a hotbed of hockey fanaticism. Right, Tony? Tony?

BTW, Edmonton scored on a penalty shot last night. According to ESPN, it was the very first successful penalty shot in Stanley Cup Finals history. Whether you like hockey or not, that's pretty amazing.

Of course, Edmonton also coughed up a 3-0 lead and lost on a horrible turnover behind their own goal with 31 seconds left in regulation. That goalie has to feel sick about it, but he hadn't played at all in the playoffs before last night.
