Why Ottawa fans are hanging their heads in shame today...

Do you remember those team sports you'd play in school - floor hockey, soccer, basketball. Do you remember heckling that idiot player who accidently scored on his own goal/net/basket?

Well, that's how all Senator fans feel about Chris Phillips (Senator player) right now.

The goal that set Anaheim ahead in last night's horrendous (6-2) Stanley Cup game - goal #3 - was scored by Chris Phillips on Ottawa's own net. (It bounced off the goalie's skate, into the net.)

Shit like this isn't suppose to happen in the NHL! They get paid millions! You'd think they'd know enough to realize which net is theirs!!

Apparently not!

I am deeply shamed by my team!

Which is basically how I feel every time Wales plays rugby.

I have no idea about rugby, even though I lived with a rugby player for over a year. Is Wales really that bad?

Ottawa doesn't deserve the Cup after a game like that. (6-2!!!! That's unfathomable!!)

Deeply, deeply shamed!

Still, they made the finals for the first time in modern Senators' history, and they didn't go down 4-0, so that's good. Next year, we'll expect them to do even better.

True, but I was really hoping that they'd win 2 games before being knocked out. Also, a Stanley Cup Final game should not have a 6-2 score, especially when it's for the win.

However, I take heart in the fact that the team with the most Canadians won the Cup.

See? Upside!
