I'm a huge fan of your site and thanks ...Hi JT,<br />I'm a huge fan of your site and thanks for your brilliant and hilarious in game as well as post game analysis.<br /><br />I really hope you plan on posting during the summer from time to time.<br /><br />On a side note, I was wondering if you know if there's anything in the rules that prohibit buying out a player and then re-signing him? I figure it's not allowed or teams would use it as a way to restructure contracts and I haven't seen anyone do it. Just wondering.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435571560723564995.post-33381461933059510832011-04-30T11:29:26.607-11:002011-04-30T11:29:26.607-11:00Me too.Me too.DanielleJamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435571560723564995.post-68065278213164417682011-04-30T08:16:42.433-11:002011-04-30T08:16:42.433-11:00@Peter: Thanks.

At the risk of sounding entitled or childish - I think our emotional saturation is more complete. The bitterness of defeat - the elation of winning. Our lives are in part intertwined with the rise and fall of those beautiful letters "CH". <br /><br />Not to be melodramatic - but I understand how you feel. This group of representatives of those letters have really connected with us. Perhaps in part with their style of play, adversity, personalities. I also think - as will all great heroes, they are defined by their villains. The Bruins of 2011 are the personification of what we dislike in a hockey style. Brutal, ugly goals, cheap shots, and little class between the occasional acknowledgement of the importance of the rivalry. <br /><br />In the end, this year will focus our veterans, has taught our youth core valuable lessons - and (hopefully) sent some messages to our management to turn a good team with a great heart into a great team with great heart. <br /><br />In the meantime, I admit I feel the same way about watching hockey. I almost feel guilty not enjoying it more. But lets face it. Our emotions were running high and hot, you cant expect to duplicate the excitement of what the Habs just gave us when watching other teams. Our love of the game is not in question. In the end, we are only human.Peterhttp://www.peterbrannon.comnoreply@blogger.com
