How to Say Goodbye, and Thank You, to Ralph Strangis

Is it possible to put 25 years of memories into context?

Of all the things I read in the immediate aftermath of Ralph Strangis announcing he was leaving the Dallas Stars, this one struck me the most:

1 last thing RE: @RalphStrangis. Don't eulogize. He just took back his life & is probably more alive now than in a long time. Celebrate.

He's right. The decision for Strangis, while surely a tough one, is at its heart an opening of possibilities for him personally.
