We all hate to see the end of a season in which our team doesn’t make the playoffs. Unfortunately, that’s happened for Colorado Avalanche fans all too often. Avalanche fans have a reason to be especially let down at the end of the season — the team goes into radio silence.
A lot of other NHL teams conduct locker clean out interviews. This is a bittersweet moment for the fans to see their favorite players one last time before the long spring and summer. This is not the Colorado Avalanche’s habit.
So, in a truly melancholy vein, here’s the latest of my, shall we say, creative mash-ups, a view of the end of the Colorado Avalanche season through the eyes of Disturbed’s remake of “The Sound of Silence:”
“Hello darkness, my old friend
I’ve come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains within the sound of silence.
