This is it. Game 7. We interrupt our regular thrifty programming...

We interrupt our regular thrifty programming to talk HOCKEY for a moment.

Just hours away from Game 7, and the biggest game in Vancouver Canuck history.

This trumps all other runs for the Cup, because it's on home ice, it follows the Canadian Olympic win (on the same ice, with the same goalie), and it's truly the first time the Canucks have been capable of winning -- and favored to win.

The anticipation -- the thrill and the dread -- is almost unbearable in this hockey loving household. For weeks, it's been nearly impossible to think about anything else! Tonight it will all be over and I can get back to thinking about thrifty things :)

In the meantime, we're keeping fingers and toes crossed for Vancouver, and sending best wishes and healing vibes to one of our faves,#21 Mason Raymond.
