    Will you follow the Canucks ? They don't tend to win much. They are bad
    losers who trash their own city when they get beat.

    You could take trip down I-5 and watch the Kraken tho. They have lovely jerseys.

    We will be quite far from VAncouver (closer to Calgary still).
    And it goes against the grain to support the Canucks.

    However, I remember Montreal and Edmonton having riots too after their
    team were eliminated in the playoffs. Two of my grad students were
    caught in the 1994 Canuck riots after they lost game 7 of the final
    series to the Rangers.

    No sensible person supports the Canucks.

    Not old enough to remember the '94 NYR one i do recall the infamous riot
    after game 7 vs Boston in 2011 tho.

    I even used to know a Vancouver fan who believed there was a conspiracy
    against them that year and they were cheated !

    Hm...I'll wait to see the results of the midweek matches to see who
    needs what.

    So, Italy and France are both qualified for the QFs, and France needs to
    win by a clear two-goal margin to get first place. Which may or may not
    matter for WCQ seeding (probably not). Bottom line, this Italy-France is
    close to a meaningless friendly.

    I pick Kvara, Mamardashvili and co.

    Yes. In fact, it's still fine for Lleo to pick and override your picks.


    Now if it were me picking late, that would have been another story...

    Sometimes, one just has to enforce the rules. With the emphasis on
    "sometimes."


    Anyway, thanks for giving me the chance to pick two teams! I pick
    - Georgia
    - Italy (I could never pick Frenchies over the Bel Paese)
