Then watched them lost players like Gilmour, Roberts (my favorite player), Nieuwendyk, MacInnis, Vernon all from that SC winning team. I stuck with them, then all the mediocre missing playoff, still didn't give up on the team, I stuck with them even during the "young gun" era. If I can survive the dark age of young gun era, nothing can sway me. Sure, I get mad at them at time but at the end of the day, they are my team and I'll cheer for them no matter what.

I hear ya bud. This talk of acquiring Jamie Benn though would put me damn close though. I hate Jamie Benn! I hate Jamie Benn more than any other player I can think of in history. Brian Marchment was a tough one to swallow but I endured. Todd Bertuzzi was puke worthy but I got through that. Jamie fn Benn though...please Christ no!
