NHL Conference Semi-Finals Teams

Recommended Posts

Isn't it interesting that in the Eastern Conference ALL Teams are outfitted in Black Red and White (2 have grey accents).

And of all colours, 2 of the Western teams actually bear Teal???

1) Inuits aren't Native Americans per se. They seem to be considered a distinct group on the census forms and such.

2) Preds are out, dude.

The politically correct term in Canada is Aboriginal, and that encompasses all 1st nations peoples, including inuit.

Being colourblind doesn't mean you see the world in black and white. You can actually see colours you just have deficiencies in certain colour areas that make it difficult to differentiate between hues.

Torres is white with red hair. Not exactly latino.

1) Really? When I think Native Americans, I've always tend to think Native North Americans. I'm not sure why.

2) Really? [/sacasm] I had one of my many mental brain farts when typing this and wasn't thinking playoff teams.

Wow, I'm stupid... :blink:
