In Red Wings Land

BEEF VOTE: SERENA WILLIAMS VS. MARIA SHARAPOVA OR RED WINGS VS. AVALANCHE - Secret Base

Could literally flip a coin and then second guess that a flip another and just kinda keep doing that until April 5th. My heart wants both to advance, my gut says both could. This could be a complete blowout going either way, or could be the tightest matchup we get. I’m going to say star power wins out and Serena vs. Sharapova keeps their ride going, but Wings and Aves is one of the greatest beeves in sports history with full team hatred. Really, we’re all winners with this matchup.

Update on the beef bracket posted earlier. Detroit got out of the first round and are in the lead in the second so far.  They’re still saying “Aves” which is bad.

Around the NHL

As Dregs notes, some #Canucks players have become very ill.
I’m also being told that in some cases team medical staff may have gone to the homes of players to administer IV treatments. https://t.co/Uh5bqk6raf

Via sources, here is the latest on the Canucks outbreak. Again, hockey is secondary.
There are 16 players and three coaches currently affected but that list is likely to grow.
