On Wednesday I got to have a lot of fun without really talking about Ottawa Senators hockey per se (because of?). Today I’ll get back to hockey but at the expense of having any fun. I respect that some folks will find this unnecessarily cynical but this team will soon miss the post-season for a new franchise record fifth consecutive year and we can’t make believe that this year has gone well in Ottawa.
Even if we knew better than to believe the “rebuild is over,” Pierre Dorion’s foot-in-mouth quote makes every loss feel that much more pathetic.
