Totally agree on all your points. The US Juniors program has been producing some tremendous players lately and the USA has had some excellent results in the annual World Junior Championship tournament (unlike Canada which has flamed out repeatedly).
I was just trying to convey the point that we are a hockey-obsessed country and the corporations and teams are in cahoots to ingrain all this stuff into our brains, especially into the brains of our youth.
