Some things don’t change in life.
The satisfaction of a fresh car wash. The way a perfectly made latte, where the espresso still has the jump on the milk, makes you feel. The genuine pleasure of those first few sips of a good bourbon. When you don’t fuck up a steak.
You can add “rooting for Pat Maroon no matter what” to the list.
Maroon is two wins away from participating in his second straight Stanley Cup Final, this time with the Tampa Bay Lightning. A year ago, it was dawning on St. Louis Blues fans that he wouldn’t be coming back.
