I’ll go back to this one because it almost made me leave the site. You didn’t say it had to be a good surprise.
Season 50. I was captain of the plucky upstart Tampa bay barracuda. Everyone predicted us to be shit again, and to most people’s surprise we were good. Not like real good, but we were good enough. With a great goalie that could win us close games, we went on to win the presidents trophy. Going into the playoffs no one was picking us to win except us. We had a first round bye, and had to face off with Toronto in round 2. We came out on top 4 games to 2. In the semifinals the cuda met up with everyone’s favorite the Hamilton steel hawks. Surely they can’t beat hamilton in a series? Well we did and went on to the finals where we would play the Calgary dragons. The dragons weren’t ready and we took and 3 games to none lead. And that’s where the surprise is. The dragons went on to win four straight games completing the reverse sweep, blowing up the Tampa bay barracuda forever and almost made me rage quit. Surprise! |
