Either of you guys aren't looking so bad after the first set of games! Sanitarium however :lol:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Top seeds are not looking so good so far. Might be an interesting playoff pool.

Starting to feel a bit bad for Sanitarium. Who would have thought that both Pittsburgh and Vancouver would be in 3-0 holes?

Detroit may need to start culling some of the vets from the roster and adding some more strength and speed. This is the "new NHL" after all. :roll:

Was definitely not expecting Detroit to get rolled that easy. Oh well, that's the way it goes.

I have to say that these playoffs are unfolding about the opposite of what I was expecting

In my head there was a Vancouver v. Pittsburgh final

Slight mixup on LA and Vancouver, not sure if that was intentional or not. :)

Now that Boston are done, I don't think anyone left in the east can stop Philly. In the west it's still a crap shoot but I'm thinking it'll be LA vs. Nashville with Nashville going to the finals.

And it looks much better, Jimmy.

My money's on the Leafs guy. Was this some sort of pity-payoff for being a Leaf's fan?
