Are you saying Mats Näslund, Kjell Dahlin, Peter Popovic and Johan Witehall isn't Swedish tradition?
I know what you mean though. I think you are right about most NHL fans here supporting those teams you mentioned.
I don't know if I have access to two video recorders... but maybe. Maybe my grandpa has two, I'm not sure. Or maybe I can check with mom and dad. They are out of town, maybe I can borrow their vcr, if I can only find it (they hardly use it these days, what with DVD's and such). I'll try reaching them on their cell phone tomorrow.
They are on vacation in Skåne BTW, Nyhamnsläge or Höganäs I think. Near Kullens fyr, isn't it? My dad has a childhood friend who lives there with his family. And one of mom's best friends lives outside of Sjöbo. WHen me and my two brothers were kids, we often went on summer vacation in Skåne.
Anyway, it will be a pleasure for me to get you and the other guys a copy of the game, if I can just find a way. I'll start investigating if I have the possibility to copy the video tape. Feel free to remind me in a while or so if I forget about it.
It IS cool that there are other Swedish Canadiens fans here! I started posting on a Pittsburgh Penguins messege board a couple of years ago, and it was just the other day I found out about this forum. There are few Swedes over on that board, basically it's just me and one more guy (from Västerås too, I know him in person, it was his suggestion I should start posting there), and there are a few others who drop by every once in a while, but not that often alltogether. There are a bunch of Europeans though, one of which is from Denmark, and that's almost Sweden, isn't it? 'Specially your part of Sweden.
Well, it's really late now, past two o'clock at night Swedish time. I'll check in tomorrow and let you know about my inquiries about mom and dad's or grandpa's videos.
