I Find This Photo Odd: Double Moustache Man Edition

I know the eyes are drawn to the surly cartoon villain features of Brent Sutter, but the real star of this photo is the facial hair of the man to his left. Unlike any beard I have ever seen, this Flames fan appears to be growing separate moustaches for his upper and lower lips. This guy was behind Sutter all night. During bench shots, I kept seeing him and wondering, just what in the heck is going on there?

Perhaps it's a tribute to a classic Sigur Ros album. Perhaps he's very sensitive about his otherwise thin lips. Whatever the purpose, his unfortunate double moustache makes him look like an Amos n' Andy photo negative. Somebody should tell him that when Movember ends, you shave off your moustache, you don't give it a playmate.

I'm sure he's a very nice man and I mean him no disrespect, but this is some odd way to decorate one's face. Quasi-beardishness of this sort is odd, and as a result, I find this photo odd.

Guaranteed Win Night?

Well, it's nice to know that, now that the Blackhawks have had their fun, the NHL head office has remembered the rules again. Turns out they easily determined that the Chicago's 5th goal shouldn't have counted. Good on you, boys. Refer to my other post about ignorant reffing, please.

In case you missed it yesterday, the sky fell. I sent the entire afternoon deadling with waves upon waves of idiots telling me the Canucks suck. Period. Listen, Canucks fans, I've been trying to stand up for you for quite some time now, but you're not helping. So the Canucks are down 2-1. They were down 2-1 in their last series. Teams are down 2-1 all the time and go on to win. And even if they don't, has this season been a write-off? No. It's been a good season, so quit telling me the Canucks suck just because they lost one game.

Plus, they're going to win tonight. Here is why:

Ryan Kesler and Alex Burrows have another gear. They'll hit it tonight. This is the main reason, actually. The Canucks were suckered into a chippy, cheap, net-crashing, antagonizing, pesky sort of game, and they were somewhat surprised by it. But, before Kesler and Burrows became top-six wingers in this league, they perfected this. Methinks that, after the game, this part of their brains, which had been shut off due to their increased roles, was finally awoken from dormancy. If there's one thing the Canucks have always been good at, it's being complete dicks. Last game the Blackhawks outdicked them. No more, sir. Frick and Frack are back tonight.

A lot of the Canucks play better when they're angry, Kevin Bieksa chief among them. I think we'll see an angrier, but more measured Canucks team tonight.

Also, it's guaranteed win night. Okay, maybe it's more faith than science, but relax, Canucks fans. When we win tonight, the series is tied, and somebody's going to have to reset the sky.
