What an evening!

Posted by Jonathan Ross

An epic accomplishment.

The first time that an eighth seed has knocked off a 1st seed after being down 3-1 in the series…a 33 point regular season differential represents the second largest upset series win behind the 1991 Minnesota North Starts victory against Chicago – the top team in the league that year – who were 38 points ahead…and two epic…dare I say legendary performances in a row from Jaraoslav Halak (like I have been saying for years, trade Carey Price for 100 water bottles…the good kind).

I am going to bask in this for a while, but will be back with some thoughts from the Vision Vancouver AGM last night, which compared to this half empty room, was packed.  I of course had to stroll in late and witness 250 heads turn to witness the scarf, the jersey and the hat representing Les Boys…but that is another story.

On to Crosby and the Penguins.

FACT OF THE DAY

In 2010, Vancouver had fewer than half the number of murders than it had in 2009.  There were nine homicides within Vancouver’s city limits, down from 19 killings the previous year.

Quote OF THE DAY

“Perhaps it was my silk dress or the new perfume I’ve been wearing lately. When I asked Suzanne Anton what her New Year’s resolution was, she replied, “To kiss a pretty girl!” and pecked me on the cheek.”  – Writer Emily Barca describing her encounter with the lone NPA City Councillor on New Year’s Eve.
