I'm trying to figure an easy way to make a quality copy of the video from my PVR - if I can do it, I'll make a highlight pack and post it on YouTube. As for Yannick being related to Vincent, I can't find anything definitive about that; there's a couple of references to the possibility on Bruin fansites (Riendeau the younger has signed a deal with Boston), but no one seems to be in a position to confirm it. If Vinny is his daddy, he would have been a young papa - the ex-Blues goalie would have been only 22 when Yannick was born, according to Wikipedia and hockey-reference.com. I'll keep my eyes peeled on that. Good luck finding a telecast of the Cup Final! @Mike: Bummer!

What a terrific third period and overtime they had. Kelowna is going to be tough to beat, but if anyone can do it, the Spits can. You can’t argue with the heart and effort these kids have shown.

I thought they stumbled a wee bit about four minutes in, but took control 'round about the time the kneeing penalty was called. Glad to see Mitchell seems to be okay. @geezer:
