Hijack The PPP Poll
Our friends over at Pension Plan Puppets have started a fan poll to decide which Western Conference team to root for in the playoffs. So far, Columbus is winning.
We can't have that. Here's a call to all Game Timers to visit PPP and hijack the poll. Pick the Blues as the team behind which they will put all of their fan energy.
Here's what their poll says: (follow the link to the actual poll)
With 2 points last night the Columbus Blue Jackets locked up the sixth playoff spot in the West, and we're coming down to the wire. Here are the current Western Conference standings:
DIV GP W L OT Pts GF GA Home Away L10 Streak 1 y - San Jose Sharks
PAC 80 53 16 11 117 253 196 32-4-4 21-12-7 7-2-1 Won 2 2 y - Detroit Red Wings
CEN 79 51 19 9 111 290 233 27-8-4 24-11-5 6-4-0 Won 2 3 x - Calgary Flames
NW 80 45 29 6 96 249 242 26-10-4 19-19-2 4-6-0 Lost 1 4 x - Chicago Blackhawks
CEN 80 44 24 12 100 257 214 23-9-8 21-15-4 7-2-1 Lost 1 5 x - Vancouver Canucks
NW 80 43 27 10 96 244 220 23-12-5 20-15-5 5-4-1 Won 1 6 x - Columbus Blue Jackets
CEN 80 41 29 10 92 222 221 25-12-3 16-17-7 5-1-4 Won 1 7 Anaheim Ducks
PAC 80 41 33 6 88 237 230 19-18-3 22-15-3 8-2-0 Lost 1 8 St Louis Blues
CEN 80 39 31 10 88 229 232 22-13-5 17-18-5 7-2-1 Won 1 9 Nashville Predators
CEN 80 39 33 8 86 205 222 24-13-4 15-20-4 4-3-3 Lost 1 10 Minnesota Wild
NW 80 38 33 9 85 205 193 22-11-7 16-22-2 5-4-1 Won 1
So, PPPers, who should we root for in the West? San Jose because of their handsome teal jerseys and warm weather? Columbus on their first trip to the postseason (yes)? Anaheim because we all love Pronger and Bobby Ryan?
If anybody selects Vancouver or Detroit (besides SkinnyFish), I'm going to let Moose start blogging full time about how great the Oilers are.

Next we’ll vote to rename the Leafs the Toronto Stephen Colberts.
I feel unclean. It's a shame so deep it can only be erased by the ravages of time and the constant abuse of hard liquor. I rooted on the Red Wings and I am now less of a man for it.
I am completely down with this.

I voted....

Well, the Blues actually deserve all of the credit for drafting some many quality young players and trading for all the greta Leafs castoffs.
If you guys do end up rooting for the Blues, try not to bring any of that jinxy Leafs fan karma that fucks over your team.

You guys might not have thought this through completely if you didn’t think of that already…
