Wait, isn’t this always at the end?

Yes, but what should be a beginning this week (a new season) feels more like the beginning of the end (of Pierre-Luc Dubois’ time in Columbus. More on that below). As a result, this song popped into my head this weekend. The lyrics seem to apply to this franchise:

I mean, I’ve already been!

I came and went

I washed my hands with it

I don’t wanna do it again

History repeats and we defeat…
