Good luck to my hockey-watching brethren as we all begin the descent into the abyss tonight.

Good luck to the Caps unless they meet my Bs down the road. Got off to a good start for me last night. I follow a lot of D.C. based news guys due to my masochistic relationship with my NFL team and [/b] there is a weird sense of trying to force optimism and "this is our time" narrative but they all seem to have these fatalistic undertones to it.

Articles running in the paper about a guy in his 80s whose been a fan for 40+ years and "deserving" to see a championship before he dies. Maybe it happens every year and I'm just not aware of it but it's got a weird feel to it.
Pretty sure it's never going to be the Caps' time. I know I'm a pessimist about sports in general but I'm way more fatalistic about the Caps than I am any other of my teams. I expect UT to win the NCAA tournament before the Caps win the Cup.
(And right on cue, Toronto is making the Caps look old and slow. I need to be drinking.)
