Will there be a game 6?

Well puck that. :(

If it is, we'll be there to witness the beginning. I just won a raffle for tickets from work. Good seats, center club level.

I just spilled an entire jar of tiny round fish pellets on the hardwood floors. They are EVERYWHERE! (But, Thurston thinks they are tasty :rolleyes:)

If by some miracle we show up to play tonight.

Seriously!

You may very well witness Selanne and Scotty's last game.

And I'm totally jealous of your seats.

Pant pant pant, almost out the door! I got my final paycheck (yay more than I thought thanks to PTO rollover).

Also, I scored a 100% fabulous photo of Valentino in an auction yesterday. It's in SF and I can go pick it up in person on Monday. I totally love it, Rudy posing with 2 of his millions of admirers at the Southern Pacific station in SF. He looks so relaxed and happy and they look like they're pretty happy, too!

You think Selanne's done after this? For real?

neat pic! I always get lost in shots like that pondering the moments before and after. I can just imagine how excited the two of them must have been

Ya. He's got a new baby at home and his wife isn't thrilled that he didn't retire last year.

Scotty and Selanne were in a tough spot last year. There is speculation that they had planned to come back all along, but had to hold off to circumvent the salary cap. Decisions and trades were made with hope they would come back. Then the season started off horribly wrong, we weren't doing well, their "official announcements" dragged out forever. If they didn't come back, they would have lost a huge fan base who perceived them as being selfish and screwing up the team. They did come back and we're still not playing up to our potential (on paper, we have an amazing team who could take the Cup again, in reality, not so much). Burke said that he would not allow them to do what they did again. Stay or go, the decision has to be made before the season starts.
