I think most hockey fans agree that this is an embarrassment to =
hockey>>
I can deal with them retiring the #, although it's sort of a joke =
since he only played there 15 months. If they had retired it before the =
Booins, then I'd have gagged :P
And you can blame the New Jersey Devils for that one. All they had to =
do was win that home game... and it was "Mission Impossible" and no =
retired jersey. But nooooo.... they let this atrocity happen.>>
Don, come on, you should KNOW this team by now.. it's the highs and =
the lows :P. Although this time the low was blowing a chance at another =
Cup rather than choking in the 1st round yet again ;).
<<I don't blame Colorado and their lack of honour/prestige - they want =
a jersey retired, and they want one now.. no matter the lack of tact. =
This is just salt in the wound....>>
Speaking of which, many Avs fans are awfully cocky all of a sudden. =
I honestly don't remember the Devs fans being even close to as gloating =
and arrogant that Colorado fans are.
Sure makes me want to see their team fall flat on its ass this year =
;).
