Over the past couple
of weeks, deeply alarming and unusual events have threatened the very
foundation of human existence.
Consider the
following:
The Arizona Screaming
Weasels, officially known as the Phoenix Coyotes, nee Winnipeg Jets won a
playoff series.
Not only did they win
a playoff series, they beat someone other than the Calgary Flames.
Never before in their
NHL history has this happened.
As if that wasn’t
enough, the Weasels won a game in the second round of the playoffs.
Again, it was a
history-making event. The NHL Jets never once accomplished this gargantuan
feat.
Then they won another
game in the second round of the playoffs.
And a third.
These events support
only one logical conclusion.
The world is about to
end.
Or perhaps not.
But it’s probably a
much greater foreshadowing of the pending Armageddon than someone reading tarot
cards in the back of a coffee shop.
Winnipeggers thought
Armageddon was coming when the Jets left in 1996. Maybe now it is.
Stay tuned.
It's a shame people from Arizona will only have a year or so to celebrate the success of the Coyotes playoff run, before they pack up and move to Quebec City.
