The Best Day of the Year: It Isn't Christmas

Friends, it is a glorious day. One to be remembered and noted in history books.

Today is the first regular season hockey game. Be still my beating heart.

I am a hockey fan. A hardcore hockey fan. I may not know all the rules or the players' statistics but I can jump and yell with the best of them. I wear my team's colours with pride and a piece of me dies with the end of the playoff season.

But now, today, that piece has had new life breathed back into it. As I write this the arena is rearing to go. GO LEAFS GO!

Do you watch hockey? What colour is your blood?

Bleeding blue and white,

L

  3. A piece of you dies with the playoff season? Why? Your team has been golfing for months by then.

    Funny thing I am no longer a hockey fan. Haven't seen a game in 3 years or so. Yet I will still cheer for my Sens and laugh at all you toronto fans.

    That's it. Next vlog is dedicated to you.

  4. Hockey is hockey; when the playoff season is over so is all the HOCKEY!

    See, I would get all upset with your ribbing but you're cheering for the CHOKE CHAMPIONS.

    Can't wait for the vlog. =]

  5. Let me share with you some stats I found regarding playoffs.

    Toronto
    Season 05-06 Did Not Qualify
    Season 06-07 Did Not Qualify
    Season 07-08 Did Not Qualify
    Season 08-09 Did Not Qualify (81 Points)
    Season 09-10 Did Not Qualify

    Ottawa
    Season 05-06 Lost in Conference Semi-final, 1–4
    Season 06-07 Lost in Final, 1–4
    Season 07-08 Lost in Conference Quarter-final, 0–4
    Season 08-09 Did Not Qualify (83 Points)
    Season 09-10 Lost in Conference Quarter-final, 2–4

    At least we make it. Sure we choke (ugh) but we got the chance to screw up. Though I guess one could say the Leafs don't let themselves qualify so that they don't have the embarrassment of choking.

  6. Well, aren't you thorough!

    I wouldn't as far as to say the Leafs do it on purpose buuuuuuut I did win a bundle on the Sens' loss.

    Whatever floats your boat, I suppose.
