News in Camp JAHL is at an all time low. The only things coming down the pipe right now are the resigning of Joe Sakic (Glorious yet predictable), and the Colorado Eagles moving ahead in playoffs after defeating the Youngstown Steelhounds 4 games to 2.

Still, the playoffs start tonight, and as exciting as that is going to be, I feel much the same as I did when I moved from blogger to my own site: Fried. The thing is, the Avs playoff push, although falling short, was very draining. I was very excited, as evidenced by my swearing, jumping, yelling, and, in a moment of sheer hockey glory, yelling, “Whip his ass!!!” at the final game of the year. Not my best moment, but it felt great at the time. So, aside from not being in Denver right now (whereabouts: Jacksonville, FL), I am just a little fried on hockey that doesn’t involve the Avalanche, which, right now, is all hockey.

Still, the playoffs do start tonight, and I will be watching, but the game, Pittsburgh vs Ottawa, is not one I care about yet. I haven’t bothered to pick sides in any battles yet, so it’s just a hockey game at this point. I’m hoping the intensity will bring me around. So, instead, since I have no stake, I thought it would be interesting to “liveblog” the Versus broadcast, rather than the game itself. I have been pretty critical of Versus in the past, pointing out the mistakes and problems they have had in their regular season attempts, so I figured, what the heck. This could be fun. How it works is, I use an offline blog writer. After a while, I just update the blogpost I have put up, maybe every period or every few commercial breaks.

So, stop by and check it out. I figure to start around 6:30ET with the pregame, then the game itself, and wrap up with the post game (I have to be somewhere at 10:30, so I can only do that much). It could be entirely stupid, I could give up part way through, or it could just be a party. Bring the chips.
