Four more games in the regular season and tonight's opponent is the only one we know won't be in the post season. In a sense, that feels good if only because former Hawks Cam Barker and Martin Havlat will have plenty of time to tweet about their feelings in a week.
But kicking a franchise when they're down isn't very nice (at least not on Easter). So let's guide our sugar rushes towards something more positive for the Minny kids: the MLB season kicks off tonight and your Minnesota Twins have a brand spankin' new stadium. Naturally, we salute Justin Morneau. You go guy.
In the meantime, a win means Vancouver grabs the NW crown for the second year in a row and fourth time in six seasons. Other things to keep in mind:
- Can Hank pad his three point lead on Ovechkin for the Art Ross trophy?
- Can Luongo remove his head from his arse?
- Is Samuelsson back at 100%?
- Will Alberts make just one mistake? Or a baker's dozen?
How many peeps can you fit in your mouth? I stopped at seven before almost choking.
I apologize for calling your wife a bloated warthog, and I bid you good day.
