Around the League - Playoff Edition - Wk 1

The first week of the playoffs has been awesome. Every series has been entertaining, fast-paced and as usual upsets are looming. One of the biggest battles is off the ice rather than on it.

My Ice Women Consultant, Laurie, noticed that the Hawks and Predators were playing so she thought we should engage in an Ice Women battle as well, so here are three all-stars from the Predators and Hawks Ice Girls.

Which team do your prefer?

The Hawks have Ashley G, Ashley L and Jenna, while the Preds counter with a solid line up of Lauren, Annie and Miranda.

Jenna gets my vote as well. I guess that means the Hawks will win now for sure.

I wouldn't kick any of those hunnies out of bed, but I'd agree with the above - Jenna is a stunner, and she puts the B-hawks over the top. Solid, solid work.

Jenna all the way. The rest of them look like they couldn't spell their own names.

I'd love to pull the goalie and throw all six of them on at the same time. Guaranteed to score. Miranda looks like she'd go in the dirty areas.

The real winner? ... US!!! We need this kind of team comparison DURING the regular season! Come on Gregor! That's what you can do for us next season :)

Seriously it's hard enough to pick between 2 and now 6? I'm on the fence on this one. Although I'm leaning away from the blondes on this one.

Jenna gets my vote, but Dakin is right about the ginger. She is lovely.

I'm solidly with Dakin on this one. Annie's got the right stuff to win this matchup.

I'll give the Blackhawks the win for best ice girl with Jenna, but for overall quality, I'm going to have to give it to the Preds.

I'm still assessing.

Id have to take the Blackhawks as a group, but on a strictly individual basis I would have to say Ashley L, the ginger from the Preds, would get my vote.

Why aren't there polls on this sort of stuff?

Man I have to learn how to read, guess I was distracted by something. I meant I like Annie from the Preds.

It is a close series. If Annie wasn't on the Preds this would be a sweep, but i think the Hawks take it thanks to the hard work of Jenna and Ashley L.

If I was hawks management i would be throwing everything i had at the Preds in the off season to try and get Annie. Trade Ashley G and Patrick Kane for Annie!
