Why does it already have to be the season finale? I really wanted a new Christmas or Thanksgiving episode this year.

Because Matt and Trey are able to extract millions from Comedy Central and only have to make 14 episodes in return. They're doing the bare-bones of a tv show's season and banking on it. I bet if they were asked to turn in 18-20 eps per seaosn they would probably just walk away from the show (which will probably happen anyway after the next couple of seasons). I was also looking forward to another wacky Christmas adventure but I guess we won't get one.

LOL when they said they needed a Canadian, and theres Ike suited up.

But overall weak. Was hoping for a clean sweep on season 10, but still one of the best seasons overall.

Aw man that was hilarious...It was as much a shot at Disney as it was at the Red Wings...The two Red Wing players tonguing each other after the win was priceless.

Wow...that was pretty bad.

The two Red Wings kissing at the end did make me laugh, though.

I enjoyed the kids getting stomped and bloodied by the hockey players, but everything else was crap. Worst of the season... but still a pretty strong run of shows overall.

The end was so freaking hilarious. Quite the odd episode, but still damn funny. Especially that guy who kept doing the movie ads. Reminded me so much of 'Rob Scheinder'

I really don't think the lot of you are getting it...but then again, I've probably seen Mighty Ducks more than anyone probably ever should have.

And I don't know if anyone is watching drawn together, but so far this episode is killing me. It's so damn wrong...

Yeah I did get the reference, it's just they have done this before and a lot better...like the Aspen ski race episode for example.

Ditto. Liked a lot of the moments with Stan's pa. It did feel like a companion piece to the Aspen (Stan Darsh!) episode. I also enjoyed the voice over man and the spoofy use of a "pop" song for their first big game. Still, hard to compete with the Sports Montage tune ("Even Rocky had a moantogge ...")

This was a great season of South Park.

While a great season, this finale was sub-par. A few chuckles, but a let-down nonetheless.

No, credits rolled after that.

I thought it was pretty funny. It was a feel-good sports movie, just for not who we thought. I hate to say it, but the cancer kid was making me laugh big.

Yeah, Park County was on the receiving end of a 'Feel Good Sports Ending' whupping.

I got the joke, but in the end it wasn't all that great. And you can tell me to go wash my p**sy, but I still can't muster a smile on 5 year old kids with cancer asking why God is doing this to them and then dying.
