Who says politics and hockey don't mix? A close examination of the U.S. Presidential race shows the two have never been more intertwined.

In fact, the hockey-related opinions and puck policies of the candidates may well decide the next leader of the free world. You think I'm kidding? Just take a look at the following actual quotes from the key figures in the race. (Now, I can't 100 percent confirm the context of the statements, but I'm pretty sure I know what they were talking about.)

"I have fought against excessive spending my entire career, but we need to make it a priority to take care of our veterans." - Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain, on the Daniel Alfredsson contract extension.
