Simply a pipe dream

So the Avs are in a very close playoff race. They played pretty poorly all season, mainly because their goaltender Jose Theodore turned out to suck, but ever since February they've been playing pretty freakin' well. They've lost something like 3 games, only one in regulation, in the past 15 games. Which is very good. Anyway, we were assuming they wouldn't make the playoffs, but since this recent surge, it's possible. The last playoff spot is currently occupied by the Calgary Flames. We just won this afternoon, and Calgary plays later tonight. Basically, we're going to need to win every game (four left) and Calgary can win one game in their five left. It's close. Really close. I know the Avs won't win the Cup this year, but we've made the playoffs every year since they moved to Colorado (1996). So yeah, it's actually pretty exciting. I'll be fine if they don't make the playoffs, because I was expecting it and have already made peace with it, but it'd be very cool if they did. (Just noticed something. I have this habit of including myself in the team by saying "we" instead of "they." I've been made fun of for it before. Just looked back, and every time I made a reference to them winning, I said "we" but every time I referred to them losing, it was "them." Got a chuckle out of that.) LET'S GO AVS!
