Game 3 - Oh Canada!
Just got back from a thrilling game 3 victory by the Oilers. At one point leading the game 4-0 it looked like it was going to be a laugher. However, the Ducks pulled out all the stops and it turned into a nerve wrecking 5-4 win. Dude, my throat is ripped to hell and I have a ringing in my ears. It hurts to swallow. I love it. Here we are up 3 games to zero. A chance to sweep the series on Thursday night and head to the final. I feel like I am living a dream right now. Unbe-frickin-leavable.
There was a special moment at the game that I would like to share with you. If you caught the Canadian national anthem on TV you know what I mean, if you were there in person you were moved and witness to a very cool Oilers hockey moment. This has not been done at an Oilers game before and I don't know if it was spontaneous or planned but the crowd had no idea it was coming, and it was beautiful. Click play on the video below to view. (Tip: After you click the video, pause it while the whole thing loads up and then watch it in full after it is loaded.)
