Let’s start with the facts. While the Stanly Cup was awarded a mere 96 hours ago, my withdrawal symptoms started eight hours later.
Eight and one-half months, from the season opener to the game six finals that saw Pittsburgh win their second Cup in succession. Watching the Penguins makes me realize how close the Toronto Maple Leafs are to bringing back the Stanley Cup to where it belongs. I am glad that due to ex-Leaf Phil the Thrill’s hot dog eating diet he is now a two-time champion.
