Coalition
Canada was stunned Monday when it was announced that The Stanley Cup will be awarded to the Toronto Maple Leafs, possibly as early as December 6th.
The cup will be stripped from the 2008 cup champion Detroit Red Wings and will be awarded to the Leafs, who didn't even make the playoffs.
How is this possible, Canadians ask?
Well, the Leafs have formed a coalition with eastern conference semifinalists the Montreal Canadiens, and conference quarter finalists the Ottawa Senators, now outnumbering the Red Wings.
According to current Leaf coach Ron Wilson "the Red Wings have lost the confidence of the league and should hand the cup over immediately to our coalition".
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman is cutting short a European trip to try to resolve the unprecedented hockey crisis that could force a second playoff series, or see an opposing team coalition take the cup.

That makes about as much sense as what the three opposition leaders are trying to do - and it's about as equally fair!
This would have been really funny if the stakes weren't so high, in Ottawa.
That said, if it weren't for the mess in Ottawa, this topic would have even come up!!!
HAHAHAH! Good one!
I don't get it. Will this effect the economy?
*sarcasm alert*
