The Stanley Cup playoffs start tomorrow

OK.

Let’s just allow that to sink in.

After the longest, coldest winter in the history of hockey, the playoffs are finally, finally going to start.

Yesterday, I got a comment that asked me what my predictions were for the playoffs. Well, I have my opinions on who might win, who might lose and which teams in my view are most likely to pull off upsets, but you can get that shit anywhere on the on the internet, it takes forever to read, and those predictions are ALWAYS wrong.

The only prediction I can give you that’s really worth spit is this:

I predict that at 7:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, I’m going to be sitting on my couch, cracking open a motherfucking beer and watching the first playoff hockey I’ve seen since John Kerry had a shot at the Presidency.

It's been far, far too long.

Tomorrow, everyone wins.
