That's a fckin HUGE SSB squat. I don't think I've ever hit one that big raw.
 
SSB is such an ugly bar, but it leads to bigger and better things.

What do you think of the playoffs so far brother
Click to expand...

I don't think it's recency bias when I say this has been the best playoffs I have seen. So many amazing match ups. The west has had some battles and the east is a blood bath. Only series I haven't watched much of is pens vs Rangers.

How do you feel it's going? I'm sure you were hoping the sharks wouldn't make the playoffs so that 1st you got from us would be a top 15 pick haha
