2020 saw the ushering in of the very rare ‘palindrome’ and the year of the ‘rat. It also lead me to do some very careful scouting, number crunching, and tea leaf reading; and I will have to agree with Harry on the part of his prediction that The Bulldog Pelee Ilanders will be in the final game.
I’m going to be taking that prediction a step further and stating now that this is actually the year of the ‘Lizard’; whom will not only collect the coveted ‘Stanley’s Cup’, but also garner the MVP nod. Hands down he’s a stud; gifted hockey player, play maker and ‘close the deal’ scorer.
I’m not sure how Bulldog as the Captain was able to draft such a strong team featuring the near weekly highlight goal scoring duo of Lizard, Chevy and deadly point man El Choppo. My only concern is inside team information that El Choppo may be pushed to a forward role; verse his usual mid centre shot making stint. As a forward the big man ought to cause defenders plenty of issues in ‘clearing’ him from the front of the net; but will a big body looking to collect those garbage goals outweigh the loss of his feared shot from the point? Time will tell…and regardless of where Captain Bulldog slots him; his team boast goal scorers and ‘lock it dow’ defenders. Let’s also not forget the team is backed by the ‘Terror’; whose already gotten two cups so early in his Tomcat career. A third cup may well signal the changing of the guard in ‘goalie’ ranks…
And who will also be in the ‘final’ game? I’m going with the Jingle Jets….should be a classic well matched game. Both clubs feature proven goal scorers, great defenders and great goaltenders.
Best part – who gives a shit who hoist the cup; or which blogger/vlogger is right. Why? Because the tourney is an extension of comradery and another excuse to get together with a great group of guys; whom whilst drinking and eating will gladly (and without spite) humorously boast of ‘their’ great plays. Great plays aside, all teams want the ‘bragging’ rights of hoisting the ‘Stanley’s Cup’; but let’s remember to ‘play the ball’; have fun; and wear all the new sweet team swag.
