Yeah, it's kind of hard to sit in Germany while Vancouver is going nuts in a positive way, but I cannot change that (even if somebody gave me two thousand Dollars, I wouldn't have the time to come over now, so thank you 
). Still, I am anticipating tonight's game one versus the Bruins with joy and also a little bit of "angst". Let's make no mistake about it: If all goes well, we should beat them in less than seven games, but you never know...
I kind of compare our current situation with the one that I was in during the spring of 2007. My hockey team in Germany, the Nuremberg Ice Tigers made it into the finals, while my soccer team, Nuremberg FC made it into the German Cup Final. The suspense in the city could be grasped and everybody was in that same mood you guys are in: "Will we finally overcome the odds?" Both teams have had their problems My soccer team is the German edition of the Maple Leafs (no title since 1968 in their case), while my hockey team is the German edition of the Vancouver Canucks (no title ever, but some great teams that should have won). In the end, the soccer team took the cup home, while the hockey team lost 0-3 in the finals... It was the only title I have ever witnessed in my life as a sports fan, and now I am ready for number two!
Let's write history, my dear Canucks! The time has come to finally become a great franchise! The time has come to make the Canucks an esteemed franchise with no longer only tragic, but also joyful great moments. We could talk head to head with Red Wings or Habs fans, we could rise above all franchises that have never actually won anything. The great city of Vancouver deserves this, and also all of its fans.
GO CANUCKS GO!
