Fist bump me, Great One, for I have playoffed. It's been twelve days since my last shave...
Okay, I think I have it figured out. I need to wear a green shirt on game days so we have a better chance of winning. Games 3 and 4, I wore a blue shirt and we got spanked. Last game I had a blue shirt under my work shirt (which is currently green) and we squeaked another 1-0 to bring the series to 3-2. So it's gotta be the green shirt.
Also, yesterday morning I parted my hair on the left instead of the usual right. I'll do that on Monday as well - couldn't hurt.
Seriously, 'Nucks, I would be super appreciative if you could finish this series in Boston on Monday. I have that day off and would love to have a party downtown with 80,000 other people all happy about the same thing. If you force it to game seven, I don't get off work until after the second period. I would much rather not have to do that, if that's at all possible.
Anyway, 14 years ago Vancouver got into a position like this and failed (fucking Rangers . . .). Let's give 'er another go . . .
The Canucks have FINALLY won the playoff series against the Blackhawks. It only took overtime in game 7 after going into game 4 with a three win lead.
Idiots. See, this is why it's so hard to be a Canucks fan. When they're good, they're great . . . then they let you down hard like an anvil suspended by a lead balloon caught in the planet Jupiter's gravity.
So seriously. About goddamn time, Vancouver.
So I shall celebrate with a giant 1 liter can of Asahi that I bought in Seattle.
Seriously, Uwajimaya is the greatest store ever.
Anyway, I'll start writing up those con reports maybe tonight.
