How to disappear completely and never be found.

Last twenty minutes of the season are left, and I'm trying to positive here, I'm trying desperately to be OK with this, at the least.

I tried changing my whole stance on the Pronger thing, I tried giving him the benefit of the doubt and took the view that he did what was best for his family and he actually made a courageous decision and all in requesting a trade. I tried, but it's far too easy to just have an enemy to hate, I can't do it.

So I'm trying to be positive and look at guys like Selanne and Marchant and be happy for them, I can do that, maybe even moreso than for any of the Senators.

And I'm trying to be thankful that the "Mighty" part has been removed from the Ducks name. I honestly have no idea what I'd do if that were still the case. The combination of that name going on the Cup along with Pronger's might be enough to put me off the league for a year or two.


I need some of that memory-erasing surgery from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. This season did not just happen, I refuse to recognize its existence. Being a sports fan is far too much pain, and very little gain.


At the very least..... at least it's not the Flames or Leafs.
