tournament? A hockey game has three periods, ma'am!

Adamantius, fan of the team with both the most goals scored _and_ the
most goals scored against, in the NHL, and foaming at the mouth while
making yet another batch of emergency Christmas cookies between 1 and 2

It's aaaalways something... If it's not one thing, it's another. If it's
not a giant pig's foot stuffed with cooked salami smoothing out the ice
