So, yes, it is only the quarterfinals, but game 7 between the Ducks and Flames goes on tonight, and I really wouldn't mind seeing the Flames win it. Then they'd advance to play the Oilers, which would be an interesting series to watch... provided there's any coverage of it here - one would hope the semifinals would be.
In honor, I give you
25 Signs Showing You Might be Canadian:
