I got misty this morning (Singapore!) when I woke up and saw he was scratched. Been a fan since I read about him in the Hockey News at the tender age of 15. I felt especially connected to the player because we are both bi-racial and when I was younger I bore a slight resemblance to him (which even got me laid once in Halifax haha!) It's freaky realizing I've followed a player now for more than half my life.
Goodbye Captain. Hello tomorrow.
