Yeah, that got me at first. Especially after having read all the shockingly optimistic tweets from various sports writers.
I won't let them get my hopes up. I won't let them get my hopes up. I won't let them get my hopes up.....
*Edit: "Read", "Shockingly".I can't spell tonight.

I was so pissed when I got home on Thursday night to see the bad news about what happened with the negotiations that until that morning had looked to be going pretty well finally. Still am.
But, the Leafs make it harder for me to stay mad.
Wednesday, my nephew went in for another brain surgery (His 6th so far, at the age of 4). He was having another shunt malfunction. Thursday, while all that crap was going on with the negotiations, Wendel Clark, Darryl Sittler, Brian Burke, and Tom Anselmi (MLSE President) were at Sick Kid's hospital delivering toys with members of the Canadian military. On top of the wrapped Christmas presents and Carlton the Bear stuffed toy my nephew was given, Wendel Clark and Darryl Sittler also autographed his AFOs, and gave my brother in law autographed photos, and Tom Anselmi gave them a business card and said anytime they want Leafs or MArlies tickets to just give him a call.

Puck Daddy (Greg Wyshnyski of Yahoo Sports) had a little blog post that the NHL had contacted its off-ice officials about being "ready to go" in short order.
That wasn't what made me pause, though. The photo that accompanied the article was of a Predators fan.
Not just any Predators fan, though; it was of the late great Tom "Swamprat" Price, who was noted for his red light helmet that he lit after every Preds goal.
Unfortunately, the light was permanently extinguished after a heart attack in 2006.

That's what you think! I'll have you know that the new deal allows for every team that misses the playoffs a chance at drafting #1, so no longer will the Leafs brilliant strategy of finishing out of the lottery doom them to I have no idea how to end this joke, so boobies!Love this
