poop

well, i was right about the wings losing the cup. i went 14/15 in playoff predictions. if i had bet, i'd be so rich right now.

...but i wish i had been wrong :(

oh well, now 2 things happen:
1. no hockey for several months. BOO!
2. i can't even get the dvd of the finals and other select playoff games (like i have the past few years) to hold me over until next season starts, because i fucking hate the penguins. i really don't need to own any dvds that involve them, unless they're busy losing. RUDE! but it kind of sucks because now i'll have an incomplete collection.

this is the first time i've watched a team i really like lose in the finals. i started following the finals closely in the 2000-2001 season with the wings winning and the canes losing. from there, the losers were (and let's see if i can do this without looking it up): ducks, flames, no finals (stupid lockout), oilers, senators, penguins and now the wings. i think that's right. so yeah... i usually like watching the loser's reaction. because i'm mean like that. but it's toooootally different when you actually like the guys who just lost. whatever, though, the wings have had the cup twice this decade so i think they'll be ok. i'm just sad that the loss had to come at the hands of the pens. OH! btw i totally knew malkin was mvp. all my lgk buds were saying fleury, but i don't think fleury was really all that fantastic. the pens' supposed inferior defense were great and fleury got some really lucky bounces tonight. malkin, on the other hand, is a stud and i will continue to be a fan of his. fuck crosby, MALKIN is the star. and he's a lot less whiny. and he doesn't have a dirty sanchez stache.

ok so now it's time for the off season, the draft and wild speculation about crazy dean-o trades.
