The NHL Elite 8 is set
East
1. Capitals vs. 5. Lightning
2. Flyers vs. 3. Bruins

West
1. Canucks vs. 5. Predators
2. Sharks vs. 3. Red Wings

Both 2-3 Series seem pretty awesome. The Sharks and Red Wings have some playoff history and they meet again.

1. Go Bruins! I'm a big hockey fan and...
...wait, I'm not a big hockey fan...but gotta go for the Bruins because they have Boston in front of their names, and also I do know that they haven't won in like forever! I actually did watch the game last night...pretty exciting.

12. I'll settle for a series win
The Sharks give the Wings fits... fortunately they'll have Zetterberg back (though he's probably not 100%) and Franzen will have had a chance to heal as well.

7. To help get me in the mood, I got the film "Sharktopus" from Netflix
Edited on Thu Apr-28-11 12:47 PM by SpiralHawk
Sharktopus is destined to be a cult classic cheesey-ass fright flick.

It's about some nutty genetic engineers who cross a shark with an octopus to create 'Sharktopus.' Soon enuf, as you suspected, the creature gets loose and starts terrorizing bikini-clad bathers on beaches up and down the Mexican Riviera.

Hey, I read about it in the New York Times, so there must be some highbrow culture shit in there somewhere.

At any rate, Go Red Wings - spank those naughty Shark (topusses).
