T-minus 9 days until one of the most exciting times of the year. Black Friday? Nope. First day of Summer vacation? Nope. First day of Steelers training camp? Nope.
It’s almost NHL Playoff Hockey time. And you know who’s in the middle of the Eastern Conference fray once again:

My Pens fandom obviously grew exponentially after last year. Since last years amazing playoff run, I’ve continuously revisited two YouTube clips anytime I was looking for a pick-me-up:
[Clip masterfully captures this amazing series]
[Cash-Money, Muse-Soundtracked Game 7 highlights/fan mashup at the 5:28 mark]
So it goes without saying, I’m ready for this years ride, even if it doesn’t match last years. Not to mention my boy, Brooksie, is becoming a much more vocal leader as of late. Who wouldn’t listen to Brooksie – seriously?

Just look at those eyes of determination (or creepiness…). Go Pens.
