Find the source. Black coffee, or dressed up?

I'm downloading this and adding it to my workout playlist. No lie.

Eeew! I would never, ever in a million years drink yesterday's coffee. If I was in a giant hurry, I'd probably just heat up some water in the electric kettle and mix some Via into it. Watching the ball drop or not?

It's code, you see. Rape = Eat Woman = Curly Fry Ireland = Arby's

Who will win? Pittsburgh, as much as it pains me to say it. Over or Under 6.5 goals (not including any shootout)? Over. Will there be OT? No. Will there be a shootout? No. Which Team Scores First goal? Pittsburgh. Will Ovechkin Score a goal? Yes. Will Crosby Score a goal? Yes. Will Backstrom Score a goal? No. Will Malkin score a goal? Yes. Which team will have the most shots? Pittsburgh. Will there be an Empty Net goal? Yes. Over or Under 12.5 PIM? Over. Will there be any fighting majors? God, I hope so. Who will have more points - OV or Crosby (or tie)? Ovie. (Please?) Who will be the three stars of the game (any order - 1 pt for each correct)? Crosby, Ovechkin, Fleury. Will there be any precipitation during the game? Ideally, Crosby's tears. More likely, rain.

Got mine at the Arby's on 10 mile in Warren! Thanks, Patrick!

Ahaha...alright! So, my sister's a manager at the Allen Park Starbucks, and Rafalski used to come in there all the time. Like, at least once a week. He signed a grande cup for her cup collection (you wouldn't believe the ridiculous amount of celebrities, local celebrities, and athletes who come into that freaking Starbucks, but that's another story) and would always tip really well. Well, he came in like the day after the Wings were eliminated by the Sharks in round 2 last year. And for some reason, this is the day my sister decided to get diarrhea of the mouth. She said to him (and this isn't verbatim, because I wasn't there, but from what her coworkers have told me, this is how it went) "Oh wow hey what a bummer about last night, I bet you're pretty sad about it. I mean, you scored a goal and all and you guys still got eliminated! That must totally suck. You must feel so awful right now." He never returned. Haha, she says that she just wanted to extend her sympathy, but she was nervous talking to him and so just sort of blurted stuff out. To be fair, he might have just coincidentally found another Starbucks, or switched to Biggby, or stopped drinking coffee. Still, it's especially funny to watch games with her, and give her s*** whenever Rafs is on the screen.

I sort of went away from the requested format a little. Oh well. Zetterberg: Hell of a beard. Hell of a hockey player. Datsyuk - Mindblowing. Sometimes I'll be watching him and think "how does this guy even exist?". Lidstrom - Same as above + total legend status. Also, seems quite intelligent and nice. Cleary - Scrappy! So freaking talented. Unfortunately, seems to be super injury prone. Franzen - Capable of being at the very top of the league in scoring, I think. Needs to step it up. Great in the playoffs. Bertuzzi - Bert's the man, though sometimes I feel like he holds back. Also, we shop at the same grocery store. Rafalski - It's very possibly that he legitimately dislikes my sister, which I find hilarious. If someone asks me to tell the story, I will. Another excellent player who could afford to step it up a bit. Filppula - So pretty. Should really try this neat thing called "shooting" that I've heard some NHL'ers do from time to time. Kronwall - I may or may not have a huge ridiculous crush on him. That aside, these days he's our second best d man, after Lids. And that's saying something. Holmstrom - Total badass. Every child, upon being asked what they want to be when they grow up should say "Tomas Holmstrom". Eaves - Really impressing the hell out of me. Also indirectly provided me (and Larry Murphy) with tasty curly fries today. Stuart - Love him. I think he's fantastic and really underrated. Hudler - lol Helm - He needs to grow some hands. Other than that, he's great. Reminds me so much of Drapes, on the ice and off. Ericsson - Not impressed. Hopefully he'll get better as time goes on. Abdelkader - I like that he's an eager fighter, even though he's piss poor at it. Tons of offensive potential, little of it yet realized. Modano - Hard to say, yet. I hope that when he comes back, he does amazing things. Salei - Oh, you mean that guy in the penalty box? Miller - I really like his hair. Seems like a hard worker, but doesn't really do much. Meh. Draper - What a guy. He's still alright at his little niche things on the ice, but I think most of his value these days is in the dressing room. Osgood - In 2008, at the parade/rally, after all the other players had left, Ozzie stayed out there for at least another 2 hours to make sure he signed something for EVERYONE who wanted it. A hell of a human being. A future hall of famer (haters gonna hate). Probably done soon. Howard - I feel confident that he will be great one day. He isn't yet.

You can never have too much Kronner! And...not as much as last year, to be honest. Somehow that makes me sad. The person below me is addicted to chapstick (or some similar lip moisturizing product).

I'm planning on sober, but who knows where the night will take me! Blondes or brunettes?

The rest of them totally suck. So, yes, definitely the rings. The person below me spends at least 3 hours a day on the internet.

Golden Train - Justin Nozuka

Laaaaaame...

Definitely potato. Walking or running?

It's safe to say I cried a LOT that season.* *-Arguably because I was 3 months old when it started. I know the real reason is because of the Wings' dismal performance.

I don't actually like either...If I HAD to pick, I guess chocolate chip. Shampoo or Conditioner?

I cried manly sports tears tonight, not gonna lie.

Oz-zie! Oz-zie!

Wrapping paper. Can I also have a hot Swede? Cut your nails or chew/bite them?

I <3 skeptical inquiry.

Nope, all mine. The person below me has opened at least one present today so far.

Ahahahaha, this is great. I especially love that Z refers to Drapes as his "nemesis". Thanks for posting, and Happy Festivus!
