My feelings on this matter are best summarized by this seventeenth-century John Henry Dryden ditty:
Farewell Ungrateful Traitor!
Farewell, ungrateful traitor!
Farewell, my perjur'd swain!
Let never injur'd woman
Believe a man again.
The pleasure of possessing
Surpasses all expressing,
But 'tis too short a blessing,
And love too long a pain.
'Tis easy to deceive us
In pity of your pain,
But when we love, you leave us
To rail at you in vain.
Before we have descried it,
There is no joy beside it,
But she that once has tried it
Will never love again.
The passion you pretended
Was only to obtain,
But once the charm is ended,
The charmer you disdain.
Your love by ours we measure
Till we have lost our treasure,
But dying is a pleasure
When living is a pain.
You think John Dryden knew Mike Komisarek?

This picture is pure Leafs porno.
Dégueulasse.
I feel the same way. Komisarek could have signed anywhere, but he chose Toronto for peanuts more in salary than what Montreal offered. I can't wait to see a Toronto vs Boston game this season, we'll see if Burke still likes his signing when Lucic rams his head in.
It's sad to say, but I think I may just like Milan Lucic a little bit this season....
Some of the Hockey Mags have predicted that the Leafs will finish as high as 5th or 6th in the East. And the Habs'...way down at 12th or 13th. All this is causing me, by way of reverse jinx, to feel quietly confident about next season.
That's a great poem!
Last week when I visit my sister-in-law in Toronto I prayed I'd run into him. Boy oh boy do I ever have a speech prepared...
Safe bet they keep Lucic locked up in a cage, feed him raw ground beef, and has only a picture of Komisarek to play/chew with.
