Let women play for the Stanley Cup,says Governor-General.
Why not?


She sees a showdown for the Cup between the Canadian and U.S. women's national teams as a one-time-only opportunity that should not be missed.

It would carry on the great tradition of the Cup; and, she believes, it would delight hockey-starved Canadians, six million of whom tuned in three years ago this month to watch the Canadian women, led by Campbell and Wickenheiser, defeat the United States for the Olympic gold medal in Salt Lake City.

2. I'd watch that !
Or, roll all of the NHL TV time to NCAA men's and women's hockey, and let folks see the REAL game being played.
