stumbles onto the NHL agenda for 2014, the Latin flavor finals. Diaz, Martinez, expansion teams for the western conference, the Oaxaca Ice Iguanas and the Mexico City Chupacabras Frigidosos. 
) is that I can watch hockey again without inducing an ulcer.

Well, I've looked over the rosters for the finals and barring some black ace that's not listed it would appear that somehow these teams made it to the finals without any Finlandian players. That make picking a favorite a bit of a challenge.
NY has a bunch of Swedes, they're pretty good at the Hockeys. They also have one Norwegian, they pretty much suck at everything.
LA has a Russian, that's never a good sign.
NY has 2 players who were born Massholes, LA only has a player who went to college in Massholia.
They both have an equal mix of Canadians, if it turns into a goon squad series they will be a factor.
Final Prediction, NY in 3 after California falls into the Pacific.

Well that's an ignominious end to the best series I have ever seen.
Just watched the OT, could not keep my eyes open after regulation last night.
California he we coooome!

He was in town, I don't think he's really a candidate. He's friends with Mario, so my guess is they were picking his brain as to who would be the best candidate, assistant GM out there. Since Pierre gets around and seems to know everyone, my guess is they were just bouncing things off of him... At least I hope so

One of his rebounds literally went to centre ice and sent his team on odd man rush. That's a big effin rebound. But its not as if Quick was any better. Maybe their equipment was frozen or something.

No I don't, just saying I haven't seen rebounds that big since Dennis Rodman was playing. One of his rebounds literally went to centre ice and sent his team on odd man rush. That's a big effin rebound.

If the puck landed in centre ice it would have had to land in Canada and it would have been out of play. The puck landed in center ice

Some of the goals were off of the weirdest bounces...like, Sharp's goal to make it 3-2 on Quick? WTF.
And then, the weird rebounds that hit Kings players in the right spots that led to 3 of their goals. Luck? Meh...not complaining. Good teams make their own luck. I am impressed with their fight...lesser teams would've gone into full fetal mode with Chicago up 2-0 and the crowd roaring like that. This is why I think LA will win the Cup.
Carter's 2-1 goal was borderline off-side and an argument could be made it was a high-stick too. But, again...whatever. Chicago managed to regain the lead but could never hold it..they need to address that. 3 times they had it.
Anyhow, where the WTFBBQ is Waldorf...? He still passed out from last night's game?
<---- Can't wait for the shenanigans between him and cabby for the Final.
