I used to like Eric Staal, but then I found out that a certain girl I know used to have a big, fat crush on him.  Since that time, I’ve been out to prove that I’m better than he is, and today I’ll do it.  Without further ado, here’s the round-by-round fight to the finish.

    If you add in your puck-off 2008 championship combined with the gpa and former rock musician you might actually have a slight edge in the notable achievements category.
