hockey, work

brutal.

brutal.

Ugh. Traffic was backed up on the 410 this morning on my way into work for an hour. When I passed the accident it turned my stomach. I saw a damaged school bus on the grassy median and more emergency vehicles than I have ever seen in one location in my life. It looked apocalyptic. Add the sound of a helicopter overhead and it was clearly the scene of a tragedy of some sort. Details are developing. What an awful start to today. Hopefully it looked worse than it was.

Hmmโ€ฆ seem hard to segue to my playoff excitement after that. Gah. The NHL playoffs start tonight and Iโ€™m in a few pools. One with my Dad and a few friends had me drive to St.Catharines last night. It is the annual pool and for the first time I got the first pick. It is a mixed blessing. Sure you get the 1st pick but you donโ€™t pick again for 20 or so picks. Anyway here is who I ended up with:


Briere โ€“ Buffalo
Connelly โ€“ Buffalo
Paetsch โ€“ Buffalo
Naslund โ€“ Vancouver
Getlaf โ€“ Anaheim
Penner โ€“ Anaheim
Kariya โ€“ Nashville
Timonen โ€“ Nashville
Hartnell โ€“ Nashville
Staal โ€“ Pittsburg
Straka โ€“ NYR
Phaneuf โ€“ Calgary

GO SABRES!
