I'm a huge hockey fan from just outside Toronto. I grew up watching the Leafs but a person can only take so much losing before they start to cheer for a backup team - mine being the Penguins.

Thanks to all the commenters who remind me though)

Playoff Time!

Playoff Time!

Now the the playoffs are officially underway, there are a few key stories that are on people’s minds Will the Kings overcome the dreaded “Stanley Cup Hangover”?

Hockey Players > Baseball Players

Pretty sure there was never any doubt but nice to hear J.P. Arencibia (Blue Jays) admit that hockey players are more athletic and more in shape than baseball players…
