I figured it was time to blow up the roster. I guess they are going to try and make one last run.

I've come to realize that I'm not as big of a hockey fan as I used to be. Growing up I could run down every roster in the league. I'm more of a Caps fan than a hockey fan now. What I wouldn't give for one last cup run.

I like this.

Enjoy your time off dad. Sounds like you are heading to my old stomping grounds if you're going to a VA Beach. Swing on by on your way to DC.

Quite possibly the greatest player I have ever seen. Most of his really productive years were before my time but what I did see was a great 5 tool player.

I think it comes with age. There was a time when I knew most players on most teams across the four major sports. Mostly I concentrate on the home teams now. Football and hockey are my two favorites but I just have the time to follow as I used to. There are a lot more diversions these days too.
