First to 100, First to Clinch: Avalanche Reach Playoffs for Ninth Straight Year
Spring has arrived, folks! March 20, the very first day of the spring season, and we finally have a clinching scenario. Only one team could punch a ticket to the beautiful annual madness known as the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and that team is the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs have had a few hiccups lately, but when the chips are down, we are at our best. Thanks to other outside factors that happened on the previous night, the Avs' scenario is a very simple one. One point and we're in. That's it.

Neck and Neck
Wednesday, March 18, 2026. That date was special to me for two reasons. One, it was my 41st birthday. Two, the Colorado Avalanche were playing, and not just against anyone. We hosted the Dallas Stars. The two teams who were ranked one-two in not only the Central Division, but the entire National Hockey League, faced off in Denver's Ball Arena. The division had been too close for comfort lately, thanks to the Stars going fifteen games without losing in regulation, though that did end on Monday against Utah.

Villainess Review: Eva Grubb (Gilligan's Island)
Gilligan's Island. What can I say about the show that hasn't been repeated on a loop for decades. This piece is actually one of two about the series that I had been wanting to write on here for the longest time. Much more about the show will be saved for another story, I promise you that. Regarding this, I know this much. The castaways dealt with quite a bit on that show, but while being on a deserted island is an immense hindrance, at least they're somehow safe from other elements.

Thunder Struck: Oklahoma City Set to Defend Title
As I mentioned before in past stories, this is the sixth season that the NBA actually allows 20 teams (two-thirds of the Association) to the postseason. Here's how it goes: the top six teams in each conference are automatically playoff bound. As for the teams ranked #7-#10, those teams will participate in the Play-In Tournament for the final two playoff spots. This is a remnant from the COVID-affected 2020 Playoffs, though the Play-In portion is modified.

Thank You, Utah Mammoth
I have been timely with the Colorado Avalanche recaps lately, but there are a few reasons why I'm a tad late with this one. For one, I was focused on the World Baseball Classic coming to a close. Also, the NCAA Tournament was kicking off. And, I was looking ahead to Wednesday, which is not only my birthday, but also our big game against the Dallas Stars. Which leads me to another reason for the lateness: I kinda want to forget this game actually happened.

The Haunting of Lyndsey Baker
For 22-year-old Lyndsey Baker, it was a turning point very early in her young wrestling career. She debuted for Mavens of Combat, a women's wrestling promotion that has operated for 35 years, just 18 months ago, but she has already gained a lot of steam and is looked at for contention for MOC's World Championship. Everything was coming up so quickly for Lyndsey as her career was just getting started.

History of The Three Stooges (Part II: The Prime Years - 1937-1939)
As I said before, for a long while, I had been wanting to write about The Three Stooges on Vocal, but couldn't figure out how to really do it. Then, I looked at my DVD sets, and decided, that's how I'll do it. For Part I, their earliest years were mentioned leading to their official start at Columbia Pictures. The Stooges were 19 shorts in at Columbia, and as the 1930s progressed, so did the Stooges' popularity.

NBA Playoff Push 2026: Taking Shape
This time of the month is a great time to be a basketball fan. In college hoops, the conference champions have been crowned, and the field of 68 has been set! The tournament will begin with the First Four games on Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by a four day weekend of first and second round action. As for the pros, the NBA season is down to the final four weeks, less than a month left until the regular season comes to a close.

Stanley Cup Playoff Push 2026: Too Close for Comfort
We are now down to the final 33 days of the 2025-26 NHL season. 33 days. Barely over a month. And this week will be a chaotic one in the sports world. The big dance will start on the 17th with the First Four. That same day, the World Baseball Classic will crown a champion (a new one due to Japan being eliminated already), and the Stanley Cup and NBA playoff races will get tighter and tighter. The NBA races will be another story, but regarding the subject at hand: oh man!

Wednesday Needs to Get Here
The Colorado Avalanche are coming off a big road win in Seattle, which came hours after the unjust penalties against Nathan MacKinnon were rescinded. Speaking of MacKinnon, he's within striking distance of the points lead--just a pair behind Connor McDavid. So that's the first leg of the two-game trip in the books. Next up: Winnipeg. These are not the same Jets, and this shocks me. This team won the Presidents' Trophy last season, but as my mom often says, they "went from sugar to shit" this season.

Villainess Blown Opportunity: A Villainous Liz Hurley Cancelled by NBC (Wonder Woman)
You know, NBC's done a lot of things over the years that has pissed me off. And no, I'm not talking about losing the NHL coverage. I'm grateful to NBC for basically resurrecting the NHL following the lockout, how they promoted the sport, and how they elevated it during a time where apathy towards hockey was at its worst. NBC delivered 16 great seasons of NHL coverage. I'm grateful for that, and plus, someone had to go to make way for the NHL's debut on Turner and their return to ESPN.
