Let me tell you a story
This is a story about a hockey team. In many respects, a good hockey team. They have heart, drive, skill, everything it takes to be a truly great part of the NHL.So good was this team, in fact, that by the end of the 2005-06 regular season, they were in first place in the Eastern conference. Two of the team’s top players were tied for fourth place as the highest point-scorers in the league. They also had players place fourth for most goals in the regular season, second for most assists, three players in the top six for most consecutive goals in a season, and had a rookie goalie break a league record by winning the first nine games of his NHL career.
But the moral of this story is this: see all that? Apparently, that means FUCK-ALL.
You put your heart behind a team and year after year they break it.
