Sure I'm one of the grumpy old guys around here, but hockey's had its claws in me since 1994 (we won't say why or how because NEVER MIND) and, for the most part, I've been a willing slave to the sport ever since.
Through all the bad seasons in the late 90's (Lonny Bohonos anyone?) to the "what is a defense?" Crawford years and the fun that started when Luongo swept in, this sport has had my attention.
Except for one time a year. This time of year. I've never watched one second of any NHL All Star Game.
