Video: Michael Buble: I Wish I Were a Hockey Player!
He may have the No. 1 album in the country this week, but crooner Michael Buble says he still has one outstanding career goal: to hit the ice with the Vancouver Canucks hockey team!
"I fell short of my dream," the singer, who released Crazy Love last Friday, says in a new interview filmed at New York City's Madison Square Garden during a recent concert tour stop. (Watch a clip above)

"My dream would have been to play for the Vancouver Canucks and beat the crap out of the Rangers team for the Stanley Cup," Buble, 34, jokes. "I missed it by that much, and now I'm playing [a concert] here. I would have preferred 41 games a season, but I'll take one night."
The Grammy-winning Buble, a British Columbia, Canada native, became a part owner of the major junior ice hockey team the Vancouver Giants, in 2008. Crazy Love is his third studio album.

2Well I for one love him. He has a God given gift. My only fear right now is that if this man can fill up Madison Square Garden what chance do I have of getting tickets for the Cinci show ? Tickets go on sale before payday. If I don't get in I will be crushed. signed fan in Ohio
This guy annoys me to no end. Can't quite put my finger on it, but Buble always leaves me with the impression that behind-the-scenes he's a gigantic self centered man-b*tch. Am I the only one who feels this way? Now, before you fans of his get all frothy, I'm not trying to slam anyone who likes him. I'm just saying I genuinely don't get it.
