NHL playoffs

The Detroit Red Wings start their defense of Lord Stanley's Cup tonight against the Columbus Blue Jackets.  It is great to see new teams in the playoffs this year.  This is the first time for the Blue Jackets to be in the post season.  

Now, with the NHL playoffs starting that means that players will start their traditional playoff beards.  Not being able to play hockey, I do what I can for my team in this tradition, and part of it is not making wild predictions or gloating.  I believe that the sports gods look down upon fans who brag about their team and punish their team.  Seriously.  Along the lines of sports karma.  

So much to the dismay of my wife, I am growing out my beard to support my team.  

GO WINGS!
