For those of you unfamiliar with American religious traditions, "Cyber Monday" is the Monday after Thanksgiving when economic patriots instruct you to report to an office job, log on to the inner nets, and spend the entire working day purchasing things online for marginal and/or illusory discounts in the name of 'Murica.

On that note, our t-shirt purveyor Gameday Depot runs Cyber Monday discounts, so if there are Arbour glasses or slogans or Backhand of Judgment items you've been thinking of buying, you can do so today. Today and everyday, our portion of the proceeds goes toward the Center of Dementia Research in the name of Al Arbour. Learn more, peruse and run wild here.

Anyway, the Isles host the Avalanche tonight. Leave your First Islanders Goal picks for tonight here.
