Is everyone still around? Just need to make sure no one slipped into a hockey coma or forgot that the day after games isn't a day you get to take off of work. There is still much to do. One Gerald does not a season make.
Yesterday was good. It was cathartic to be sure. Watching hockey, even preseason hockey, calmed the nerves a bit. At least it did for me, and I hope for all of you as well. Being able to focus my attention in on something, that in the grand scheme of things, doesn't matter, felt good. It truly felt good to just escape for three hours or so.
Welcome back, hockey. Please don't ever leave us again. We'll do anything.

Preseason Starts Tonight; Thoughts On Mark Johnson | - Good post on Wild.com that served dual purpose. One, as a pregame for yesterday's tilt, and two as a look at Mark Johnson, a Lester Patrick award winner. You may remember Mark as a member of the 1980 Olympic hockey team.
