The Stanley Cup Finals are almost here ladies and gentlemen. I know it seems like a year since we have had any hockey on TV. Well I make you this promise Wilderness, if you can hold out just one more day, just one more sleep, well then I promise you Wednesday night will bring you playoff hockey once again. We have a good amount of fun news today, there is a eulogy slipped in there and we have some good match up stuff to get you ready for the final.
On a personal note, today will mark my 5th day tobacco free! It's been a lot of fun ruining my lungs and spending needless money for years on those heart darts, but their time has come to an end and my wife and I are both moving forward without them.
