By junior on April 11, 2008, at 10:55 pm Okay, maybe I’ve just been living under my rock for too long, but I hadn’t seen this thing before, until Doug posted it in the comments section of my post about the need to ensure that Cliff Fletcher eats lunch – and lots of it. I cannot stop laughing. The Leafs could use a little […]
By junior on April 11, 2008, at 7:19 pm Blatantly swiped graphic from Japers’ Rink, posted there as a welcome for those of us clambering aboard the bandwagon and shouting “Just say OVIE!”
Thanks to the folks there, and the folks at On Frozen Blog for throwing out the welcome mat for us in a big way.
I got home right at 7:00 […]
By junior on April 10, 2008, at 11:18 am Required reading for adoptive team-parents wishing to learn all about our new little darlings and their evil rivals in time for Friday night:
On Frozen Blog’s series analysis at faceoff-factor.com.
Most of the “experts” I’ve heard making predictions don’t give the Caps much of a chance in this one, either because they believe the Caps […]
By junior on April 9, 2008, at 7:33 pm After a very carefully run election (no doubt involving United Nations observers), the Leaf fans at Pension Plan Puppets have at my suggestion adopted the Washington Capitals, champions of the NHL’s NASCAR division as their foster team for this year’s NHL playoffs.
The first (and hopefully last) adoption of one poor underserved hockey team is […]
By junior on April 7, 2008, at 6:56 pm Cliff Fletcher apparently met with the media today to give a horrible season by a bad team the uncomfortable (but not overly time-consuming) eulogy it needed. Wisely preferring not to point fingers at under-achieving players (which might lead to some uncomfortable moments among the pallbearers while interring the corpse), Fletcher further stipulated that the future […]
By junior on April 5, 2008, at 10:51 pm Two thoughts on the end of another NHL season: one, I have officially adopted the Washington Capitals as my team for the 2008 Stanley Cup playoffs; and two, why isn’t more being written about possibly the end of Trevor Linden‘s career in the National Hockey League?
With my beloved Leafs now banished to the virtual […]
By junior on April 4, 2008, at 8:42 am How did I miss this before? Is it acceptable for me to still be happy it’s back when I didn’t know that it was gone in the first place?
Funny! See, for example, why a big ol’ dog should be President.

By junior on April 3, 2008, at 8:24 pm Yesterday, I foolishly opined that the hockey gods had turned their malevolent attentions upon Ottawa fans, leaving Leaf fans alone to suffer another long, hot summer while the hopes and dreams of the Capital City bunch were crushed in agonizing fashion.
Idiot!
I tuned my virtual Intarwebs radio in to the Leafs/Senators game tonight, deliciously […]
By junior on April 3, 2008, at 8:04 pm I love it when virtual communities act like real communities and come together to achieve a common purpose. The special joy I have from this phenomenon is enhanced when the virtual community uses the everyday technology tools at their disposal to achieve their ends. For that very reason, I spent some time a couple of […]
By junior on April 2, 2008, at 9:16 pm So the hockey gods, having recently accomplished their purposes – to maximize the suffering and anguish of devoted puck afficionados – have tossed away the Toronto Maple Leafs and their fans like a sullied and broken plaything. Having breathed the breath of false life into the Leafs’ season, fanning the flames of hope into a […]
