      Bingo, cuz there's nothing worse to losing to a team from Calary.

      Wait yes, there is....losing to a team from Regina......

      Possibly waking up next to something from Planet of the Apes. No, losing to a Calgary team is worse.

      Interesting that it was the Riders who moaned and bitched for a salary cap, and since a cap was put in place for them, they only years they've won they broke the salary cap rules.

        How about losing to a Disney team in the first round?

          I still think if we play our game we advance.

            I agree. If we switch to tennis or backgammon we're sunk.

              Considering the ice surface at the Shark Tank isn't very good the game on Monday may look similar to a game of tennis unfortunately.

                Huh? The Tank has one of the best ice surfaces now. They use a state of the art cooling system under the ice to keep it a constant temp. They may have better ice than we do now.

                  I've seen a few games in the regular season where that cooling system made no difference at all.. the puck was all over the place. Maybe the venue was used the previous night in both instances, but from the games I've seen on television there it hasn't improved that much from past seasons. I guess we'll see. Edmonton still has the best ice surface in the league.

                    The problem in sothern arenas is not the ice temp but the humidity of the building. Dallas spent 10 mil on their new arena's cooling system but still have lousy ice because they can't de-humidify the place fast enough.

                      Actually we've slipped off the top spot to be amongst the best. Our ice plant is in dire need of upgrading. What keeps the ice so keen is the limited amount of times the ice has to be taken out during the season.

                        We've slipped, but apperently so has everybody else. Just read an article in the Cowtown Sun that said ours wasn't as good as it used to be, but still the best.

                          I've heard that a lot of Americans (and a lot of players) now think the best ice surface is at the Joe in Detroit...

                            When we lost our ice making gods to the league, we lost a bit of our edge. Still the Edmonton climate and humidity are as much of a factor as well...

                              The Joe is used for very few events other than hockey. The longer the ice stays in a building, the better it gets
