Welcome to the Club of Epic Failures!

You read it right. No hockey games on today is really killing me so I figured I'd start this club. This is a club for everyone in the NHL or other hockey leagues that has failed in some epic way. Today we're inducting some of our members. More will be added in the near future.

Brilliant Mastermind Behind the Club - EP

President: Martin Biron for failing epically in general. If we ever made a Club For Goalies That Like To Be Sieves, he'd be the president of that too.

Vice-President: The person in charge of the NHL schedule. Who puts the Habs and the Caps playing on the same days?

The guy below the Vice-President (is that the vice-vice-President? *g*) - The Leafs. Do I need to explain this one further? They'll have to figure out a way to share the position.

Senior Secretary to the President - Martin Brodeur. While I believe he's completely cursed right now, he's not getting off the hook for that epic loss in game 7 against the Whalercanes. So instead of making him the actual Vice-President, he gets to be the Senior Secretary to the President.

The Board of Directors for the "Special Failures Section" of the Club- The dudes in charge of the San Jose Sports & Entertainment Enterprises (they are the owners of the team)

Special Secretary to the Senior Board of Directors for the "Special Failures" Section of the Club - Doug Wilson (the GM of the Sharks)

Almost-Cool Janitor for the Special Secretary to the Senior Board of Directors - Jumbo Joe (Thornton)

Head of Entertainment at the Club - John Tortorella. Every Club needs a head of entertainment. Torts is our guy because of his epic hissy fit which turned into his team getting an epic fail in the series.

Caps win and guess who fails me this time?

First off.... CAPS WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN! It was a sloppy, messy, icky game but they pulled out a win. Semin pinballed the puck into the back of the net after Antropov had already put the puck past Simeon. A pile of icky and virtually penalty free minutes came and then finally... with 5 something, Fedorov puts one past Lundqvist. Best part of the night! For an old guy (sorry) it was great to see him get a goal when it mattered the most.

Of course Simeon was awesome and Lundqvist was awesome for most of the night too. Ovie was not so good. I dunno why the heck he was being double shifted because he looked really dead until Fedorov scored and then he practically killed the guy by jumping on him. I swear the guy is going to kill one of his teammates by squashing them...

The best part though, was seeing the Caps fans and the signs they brought with them. One had Avery as Bart and Tortorella as Homer saying "I'm going to waterbottle you". The Caps fans right behind Torts also had rain ponchos on. Needless to say, I died laughing and now I really want to find that poster....

Now unfortunately, the Caps will be facing the Puffles next because Brodeur and Co failed utterly in the last 1:30 and lost 4-3. Roy's curse lives on (stupid Roy....Stop cursing people!). Way to lose a game that looked for sure like you were going to win. Thanks for nothing. Brodeur now gets added to the Club of Epic Failures. Congrats. Don't worry though. Biron is still president of the club. I can't say how mad I am at the Devils for losing. I don't want to see a Puffles/Washington series. I really wanted the see the Bruins and the Pens knock each other out or something. I can just picture Mr. Puffle's perky face as he scores.... UGH. UGH. UGH. UGH.

And in World Championsip new...

And poor Jaro.... His team failed so epically... I wanted to go and hug the poor guy. He just can't play for a half decent team. He deserves a lot better. I really hate Spezza now. I kinda wanted to see both the Staal bros in Switzerland but Broduer messed up that plan.... If Canada loses (and I don't really care if they win or not), I'm blaming Brodeur for no reason. Whoo!
