Twenty years ago, this organization was preparing to defend the Cup. 19 years and ten months ago I was in a D.C. subway station about to get karate kicked in the throat by a Caps fan because I may or may not have been taunting him after the Wings won Game 3 of the SCF.

Ten years ago, this organization was about to make a nice little run to 11. 9 years and ten months ago I was at the Joe, in the upper levels, for Game 1 against the Pens. It's there that Osrt and I met Jules. You can read all about that here.

Shorthanded and in barrels Charlie Frigging Buckets. Does anyone need one worse than him? Sprung loose by a pass from Stuart, I believe, and off he goes. Turns the hyphenated French goalie into a pretzel and Game 1 is done like dinner.

Easily one of my favorite blog posts ever. I could have picked any sentence. Read the whole post and remember what we used to be.
