Because It's the Cup

By -
Last week the NHL launched its 2012 NHL promos for this years playoffs.

The last couple of seasons we have been blessed by the "History Will Be Made" ads.  They were both awesome, and led to many parodies on Youtube and across the internet.

The new "Because It's The Cup" ads haven't been garnering such positive reviews.  You can watch a sample "Because It's The Cup" ad by clicking here.

What these new ads need is a little humour.  The NHL needs to poke fun at itself once in awhile, and I've compiled a list of HONEST "Because It's The Cup" ads the NHL could use:

- "Because It's The Cup.......high sticking will not be called in crucial games, giving the best player in the world a chance in the finals."

- "Because It's The Cup.....we've divided all regular season suspensions by four.  If you want to go all Chris Simon on someone, this is your chance."

- Because It's The Cup......that means hockey in the Southern USA in June....we didn't really think that one over."

- "Because It's The Cup.....you can put in 3 solid months of mediocre work, to win Lord Stanley after a long career in Boston."

- "Because It's The Cup.....you don't really have to shake hands with the Red Wings."

- "Because It's The Cup......we'll forget about you beating up that cab driver."

- "Because It's The Cup......go ahead, put your foot in the crease."

Where did a decade go? I remember this game, and basically being on my knees throughout most of it.  When Laich scores the late goal in the 3rd I almost hurled, and then on top of that we take a penalty! The ride Halak gave us in 2010 will never be matched!  41 saves in a Game 7! No idea how Sportsnet isn't airing this one tonight!?  I'm surprised they aren't airing random 2016 Blue Jays baseball games instead. I don't need 80s and 90s game all week.  Mix in some modern classics like this!

I can't believe I am about to blog this. I didn't think the day would come. Sure, after beating the Leafs in overtime Saturday night I briefly had hope that the season wasn't dead (season's still dead). Here we are though, Monday, February 10, 2020, and I'm taking the Montreal Canadiens as my lock of the night on the Moneyline over the Arizona Coyotes. Am I nuts?  Maybe. Do the Coyotes suck?  Yes.  Do the Habs suck, yes, but not lately. In a what have you done for me lately world I'm going with the Habs tonight.  Time to live and die with a team that is 6 points out of a playoff spot with two months to go.
