I'll always respect Richards for wearing the Canadian jersey with pride. But I'm glad the day has come where I'll never have to see that beaver grinning cup-winning "I'm gonna go on a flukey cup scoring streak and then never do it again'' guy ever again.
Of almost all the players in NHL history that I think ''what could have been'', Richards is the one that I always think ''what couldn't have been'' when it comes to '04. Of all the years to go on a hot streak in the playoffs, it freakin' had to be that year. Sigh.
