Saturday Video

It's Saturday.

For now, it's just another day. Maybe you sleep in a little later. Maybe you go out late tonight. Maybe you sit on your butt and do nothing.

But in just a few weeks...



Of course, up north Saturday night takes on a whole different texture, an almost reverent stature in the cultural lexicon. Here's a look back at 50 years of CBC's legendary Hockey Night in Canada:

Do you stay up late at night thinking of ways to make us Canadian ex-pats homesick??

Thanks for the memories though. And we can't wait until the puck finally drops.

Pretty much :) I figure if it makes me homesick and I only lived there for four years, it'll work perfectly on you guys!

Oh, HNIC...the reason I need to get Center Ice this year. I miss it.

Aww, thanks for that little preview! I can't wait for HNIC to come back.

And thanks for that extra bit of Sidney-love. I know I can always count on you to find a video with a good amount of him in it. ;)

Believe me, if I could have cut out all the Sid bits I would have...especially those three at the end! Why couldn't more than one person make a video with that damn song??

Oh, well - at least the video ends on Ovie's pretty smiling face :)

I thought of you when I saw that the video ended with Ovechkin and figured that was what really drove you to post it, not that underlying deep love of Sidney Crosby. ;)
