The Hoodoo Will Not Be Denied

The Carolina Hurricanes, after a barn-burner of a Game 7, have won the Stanley Cup.

I'm happy, of course. Edmonton eliminated Detroit in the first round, and I didn't have any choice but to put The Hoodoo on them. For the past three seasons I've bestowed my curse, The Hoodoo, on each team that eliminated Detroit in the playoffs. 2003, Anaheim: they made it to the Finals and lost in game 7. 2004, Calgary: they made it to the Finals and lost in game 7. 2006, Edmonton: they made it to the Finals and lost in game 7.

Clearly, The Hoodoo is mighty. And I'm glad. The 'Canes have never won the Cup, in any of their incarnations.

[SNIP! Late-night hostile screed removed. Just because I have a blog doesn't mean I have to sound like a blogger. But I'm leaving this part.]

Steve Yzerman sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, and that's just because he's polite. Behind Stevie Y's playoff beard is another stick.
