Thread: But we're not dead yet Wednesday Morning Coffee (and Tea!)

There is still chaos in the streets, Slamfist is resting at the coffeehouse, in his full Canucks gear, when a cart pushed by a rather noxious individual advances up the street. "Bring out yer dead." he cries. An Edmonton Oiler player is thrown on the cart. "Whew... that one's been dead for weeks!"

Suddenly a group of Los Angeles Kings grab the resting Slamfist and throw him onto the cart. Dustin Brown grins "Here's One!"

The noxious and rather groping fellow, who actually looks a little like Mike Milbury when you look closely "That'll be ninepence." Protesting from the cart, Slamfist cries out, "But I'm not dead."

"What's that?" says Milbury, as Brown scrambles to pull out ninepence. "Guys, what's a ninepence? Anyway, here's a whole dollar!"

Slamfist is getting insistent now, "I'm not dead." Milbury tends to agree, "Ere now, he says he's not dead."

The Kings, to a man, "Yes. He is. They all are, the Canucks. We've got 20 more inside..."

"I'm not"
"He isn't"
"well they will be soon. They're down 3 games to 1 "
"We're geting better. Schneider played great. And we have Daniel Sedin back. Did you see that behind the back pass! Woooooo!"

Dustin Brown, getting desperate now, "No, no signs of life, you'll be dead in one more game!"a
Milbury, "Well I can't take him like that. It's against regulations."
Slamfist gets up from the cart, and begins doing a jig, "I feel fine! and Seriously Brown, and the rest of you kings, we're back baby! Down 3 games to zero, we've survived one more night. Now it's time for a coffee. Wilson!"

Will the Kings finish off the Canucks, or will the Canucks stage a comeback for the ages? For one more night anyway, the dead collector won't be gathering any Canucks (or Penguins for that matter!)

Good morning Landroval. The coffeehouse is open for business!
