5 REASONS WHY WE NEED TO WIN TONIGHT

This afteroon's game is important to my self on so many levels.

1) MN could take a dropp by another two points (or more). With just over a dozen MN points remainning, the zero party seems to be closer than we realise. (Mateus...where is our party man?!)

2) Two more points in the bag would help us in our bid for the top seat in the conference

3) A win tonight would ensure that regardless of Ottawa's game today or our outcome tomorrow night, we would leave the Western time zone having outplayed the Sens.

4) A win tonight would give us a much needed boost prior to tomorrow's game which could potentially be the MOST difficult game of the season thus far.

5) Most importantly it gives me bragging rights. [i]She who must be obeyed's[/i] cousins fiance is a Kings fan living in Montreal (go figure). He is however as involved a fan as I am both in his team and the NHL. I am dragged into all sorts of events, meeting, dinners and gatherings with extended family through out the year, and needless to say I would rather be chased around for the Bell center with a cattle prod for hours on end then attend, but such is life. My only saving grace is that get to chat up some hockey with the other gentlemen who have been dragged into this torturous social circle.


Since we only face the Kings once a century, tonight's win or loss would give either of us the ultimate trump card in any disagreement regarding the HABS, the Kings, the NHL, hockey in general, life lessons and any other topic one can get into a debate over:

"Mine is bigger"
"No it's not"
"Yes it is!"
"No it's not...you're crazy. Mine is bigger"
"No it's not! Look let's put them side by side and measure"
"Mine is bigger see"
"Fine...you grew the larger pumpkin for this year's county fare contest, but the HABS beat the Kings....your team stinks worse than the LEAS! Ha ha!"
"You can be so hurtful sometimes...you didn't have to go there"
"Yes I did cause we're better"
"I'm getting a caramel apple"
"Uuuu I'll come too, I want a corn dog"
"Fine"
"Hey did you check out the house of horror chick?! I wouldn't mind getting on that ride!"
"Those house of horror rides are so cheezy"
"....Man you can be thick sometimes. Kind of like your team...Remember when HABS beat them?"


You guys see what I mean? :D
