The power of the mind is a wondrous thing...this is so heartening to see. Here's to you, dear Vladdie. Your courage is amazing, and the rest of you ain't too shabby either.
I can't put a percentage on it, but something deep inside me believes he'll stay for another year or so. I don't know. I plan on doing some heavy duty groveling at training camp.
Is it my uderstanding that Iginla nixed the deal to Boston? If so, he's definitely not going to be welcome there any time soon. Needless to say, Boston fans are a little upset. And I can't say I blame them. I mean, you go to bed thinking you've got this deal done and when you wake up the next morning you find out you don't have it. Kinda sorta sucks, you know? But on the other hand, they kinda dodged a bullet, because they would have been getting probably nothing but a rental. So maybe there is a silver lining to this cloud.
I like the quote they had about someone playing piano and someone pulling it. Seems like Pasha and Abby were playing a duet, and I don't think it was "Chopsticks".
Congrats to Abby on the hat trick, and double kudos to dear Pasha...250 career goals, 500 career assists...and the night ain't over yet. That might be a good thing.
I don't know why, maybe it's wishful thinking on my part, but something deep inside tells me he's not quite ready to leave yet. I will probably be doing some heavy duty begging and groveling when I see him this fall, but I just don't think he's quite to the point yet where he's going to go away. Like I say, maybe it's wishful thinking on my part, who knows.
