September Already
6 Sep, 2007
In recent years past, when September rolled around I would be counting the days until the start of the hockey season.
Then came the lockout in ‘04-‘05, the Thornton trade in ‘05, the firing of Mike Sullivan, and the subsequent hiring of Dave Lewis, all of which added up to a spectacularly craptastic season in ‘06-‘07.
Even the snazzy new uniform isn’t enough to get me actively anticipatory about hockey this year.
That’s not to say I won’t be watching, at least for the first few months of the season… but my expectations are so low that it’s hard to get excited.
