Sorry you're out of the playoffs Jam!
To make you feel better, here's the hockey song:
Hello out there! We're on the air,
It's Hockey Night tonight;
Tension grows, the whistle blows,
And the puck goes down the ice.
The goalie jumps, and the players bump,
And the fans all go insane;
Someone roars, "Bobby scores!"
At the good old hockey game.
Oh! The good old hockey game,
Is the best game you can name;
And the best game you can name,
Is the good old Hockey game!
[spoken] "Second period...."
Where players dash with skates a-flash,
The home team trails behind;
But they grab the puck and go bursting up,
And they're down across the line.
They storm the crease like bumble bees,
They travel like a burning flame;
We see them slide the puck inside,
It's a one-one hockey game.
Oh! The good old hockey game,
Is the best game you can name;
And the best game you can name,
Is the good old Hockey game!
[spoken] Third period! Last game in the playoffs, too!"
Oh, take me where the hockey players
Face-off down the rink;
And the Stanley Cup is all filled up,
For the champs who win the drink.
Now the final flick of a hockey stick,
And the one gigantic scream:
"The puck is in" - The home team wins
The good old hockey game!
Oh! The good old hockey game,
Is the best game you can name;
And the best game you can name,
Is the good old Hockey game!

![[411] - The Cost of Failure](http://www.wastedtalent.ca/sites/default/files/imagecache/comic_square/comics/2009/wt_beard.jpg)


Sadly, it's time to re-post the play-off beard comic:
http://www.wastedtalent.ca/comic/cost-failure
Pretty much the exact same situation as last year, eh??
Except for the scruff part. Actually Luongo (our goalie) decided that he was going to FLY IN THE FACE of the playoff beard superstition and go out clean shaven! :o
The results were clearly identical, but it was funny: outside my apartment last night the radio station was doing something called "shave it off for the cup" or something to that effect... shave off your facial hair for good luck! Hahaha
Noticed a lot of clean-shaven, depressed men about town this morning :(
Man, my profs for my classes tomorrow are going to be irritable.
I didn't grow a play-off beard in '94, as I needed to look respectable for my job.
It would've been a pretty good Mountain Man beard by then, but since they never get past the 2nd Round anymore, it just gets to the annoying/itchy stubble stage.
Oh well, Let's Go BC Lions!
I'm excited for the Canadiens. I grew up in Montreal, so I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the Habs <3
