Seem to be mighty good guys as well.

This is a great story:

DALLAS (Jan. 12) - Usually, two goals are enough to satisfy Teemu Selanne .

But Thursday night was different for the Anaheim Ducks ' top scorer. Selanne's had his 19th career three-goal game and Andy McDonald registered four assists to send the Ducks to a 5-1 victory over the Dallas Stars on Thursday night.

Earlier on Thursday, Selanne had a phone converstion with a close friend in Finland. The friend has terminal cancer and asked Selanne to send him the puck if he had three goals.

Selanne promised to oblige but warned the friend that he hadn't had a hat trick since March 29, 2001, in a game against the Ducks when Selanne played for the San Jose Sharks .

"Today he found out that the cancer has spread to his brain," Selanne said. "I don't think he has much time to live. So I told him if I scored a hat trick I'd keep the puck. I told him the odds weren't very good that it would happen. Obviously it was really a sad day today, but what are you going to do? Life is not fair sometimes."

Hat tricks used to be a regular thing for Selanne, so his first three-goal outburst in almost six years was special for the 36-year-old native of Finland. ....more

Thank you Cat! I've learned that pro hockey players are class acts.

I met Teemu after a game last year. He signed a poster to me and it is hanging in my classroom. Meeting Teemu was as big if not bigger than meeting rock stars

Hey fucktard, last time I checked, the Cup was in Carolina. Screw those French fags. The Habs? Gimme a fucking break.

Vancouver is in Toronto tomorrow night. On Hockey Night in Canada. You gonna watch it and call me if TOR loses?
