"In many ways, these final weeks are like a trial run for the playoffs. You're playing a lot of games, sometimes back-to-back, against opponents you hate, opponents that know your tendencies. I know a lot of people don't like all the division games to end the season, but for us, there's nothing better

you know, i'm jealous that you can actually grow facial hair.

*laughs* have you seen pictures of my playoff beard from 2004? Between that and the long hair, the guys were calling me Homeless Jesus.

It's a blessing and a curse.

I'm with Tyler...I dont think this facial hair thing is going to work for me either.

[darryl_sydor]

No worries. I think my beard would more than make up for all you youngsters who can't grow one.

How is this different from regular season facial hair?

[genomalkin]

playoff facial hair covers up a seasons worth of cuts, bruises, and scars in your case.

[jarkko]

No, not in my case because this season I mostly took shots to the eye area.

[genomalkin]

So grow bangs instead and we can call you Cousin It. A mustache might help the fat lip too.

Wow, I feel like I missed out on something that made this such a popular topic of conversation.

I'm proud of you, Syd, I'm glad you all are doing so well. It makes sitting on your couch and watching you play somehow a little easier, even if it still just sucks.
