tarotgalWell, the last hockey game of the season- Game 7 was tonight. Ducks & Devils. I love both teams, but I was going for the Ducks because the Devils had already won it twice in the last 9 years. It was a good game... the Devils were almost faultless, though, and Marty had a shut-out. This was the 12th Cup series to go to 7 games, though, so that's something. Even if play wasn't as equal as I would have liked.
And I really did think I'd be happy, no matter who won. But I was SOBBING when the Ducks did not win. They showed my Oatsie crying... and the Ducks goaltender Giggy was trying so hard not to lose it completely, crying softly. Oh my gosh... he did SO well. WHen I saw him crying, I just died. I wish they could have won!! The shaking hang (and hugging) line was so touching. There were two brothers playing against eachother, so it was nice to see them hug... but the Ducks looked really out of it, especially Giggy. Devil players would hug him and he'd, like, nod. It was heartbreaking!
Then they awarded the Con Smythe trophy for best player in the playoffs and it usually goes to someone on the winning team- but it went to Giggy!!!!!!! YAY! He looked a little happy when he went to get it, and a bunch of Devils players were actually clapping for him, too! But those freaking fans booed him! That is NOT good sportsmanship! Bad fans! *grrrr* He took the trophy and skated straight into the locker rooms. So sad... poor little men... *sniffles*
But, um... the Devils looked happy! *S*
