The Wind is Evil Tonight

"If winning isn't everything, why do they keep score?" ~Vince Lombardi

Did you sense something strange in the air tonight?
Did you start shivering for no apparent reason at all?
Did you notice the black clouds in the sky?
Are your pets acting weird?

The wind was evil tonight, and the teams with the blackest of souls were having the brightest successes.

Let's start with the Women's World Hockey Championships, which was the usual Canada vs. USA battle (version 2646148937)

After winning the last 8 WWHC's, and outscoring their opposition 38-0 in this tournament, Canada fell to the evil Americans 1-0 in an evil shootout.

With the shootout loss, Canada falls to something like 2-372 in International shootouts all time (men's and women's hockey). If Canada is the King of the hockey world, than the shootout is the poison in the royal sirloin.

Over in Czechia, in the birthplace of Goaltending Satan (one Dominik Hasek), Pardubice put a chokehold on Zlin with a 2-0 victory. Jan Lasak has obviously been channeling the old Hasek (Hasek was the goalie tending the twine when Pardubice used to win championships) and had another 40-save performance. Lasak has enough clean sheets to start his own orphanage.

Blah! Pardubice leads the series 3-0 and I'm afraid that Jan Lasak has enough 'sudes' to last him another 4 games.

In Bratislava, Satan (the Miroslav version) sat back and had his minions do the dirty work for him. $lovan won 5-2 as the Orszagh-Handzus-Zednik line was completely neutralized. Miro did absolutely nothing but laugh maniacally and roast weenies on his pitchfork. Nice work if you can get it.

...and as if I needed more bad news, I find out that PAVOL DEMITRA will not be playing for Slovakia at the upcoming World Hockey Championships.

*whimper*

Good thing I didn't have a surgery scheduled for today, because I'd probably end up with a second head and an extra eyeball.
