FROM BOBCATS TO WOLVES: THE ALI-EN'S WILD KINGDOM TOUR CONTINUES

🏒 WFE TOURNAMENT, FINAL SCENE 🏒

If you weren't at the rink yesterday, you missed a literal Close Encounter of the Winning Kind.

Ali Amawi (#27)—officially dubbed The Ali-en 👽 decided overtime was taking too long, beamed up the game-winning goal against the Bobcats, and sent them back to the litter box. Yesterday: cats defeated. Today: wolves targeted.

We are officially in the middle of a Wild Kingdom tour, and The Ali-en is the apex predator.

At 10:50 AM, we close out the WFE Tournament against Worthington Kilbourne, the Wolves. And look, we get it. Wolves are supposed to be intimidating. They're the Starks' sigil. They're what Jacob turns into when he takes his shirt off. They're part of the the reason people built stone walls in Westeros.

But here's the thing: the Starks lost. Jacob lost Bella to a sparkly vampire. And the Night King's ice dragon melted that wall like butter. Wolves talk a big game, but they always end up either betrayed at a wedding or friendzoned in the PNW.

Also, they're basically just dramatic huskies who forgot how to enjoy a warm couch. They spend all night howling at the moon like it owes them money. It's theater kid energy, but make it feral.

Here's the challenge: Kilbourne's scoring stats are terrifying. I'm looking forward to this matchup about as much as a root canal-colonoscopy combo. It's a stretch goal. But then again, so was winning in OT yesterday, and we had an alien on our side.

THE ALI-EN: A BRIEF FIELD GUIDE

Ali Amawi is a puck-seeking missile with one speed setting: Hyper-Sonic. If you're near the puck when he arrives, you're a proximity mine casualty. He circumnavigated the ice five times in a single shift yesterday. That's not hockey, that's orbital mechanics.

Yesterday's theme song: "Move (please), Get Out The Way."

Today's soundtrack: Full alien invasion vs. the Direwolves of Columbus.

The Wolves are rocking Royal Blue and Black, its giving "Winter Is Coming." We're bringing an extraterrestrial who doesn't understand Earth gravity, the concept of "slowing down," or why anyone would choose Team Jacob.
