My then 8 year old son, Mat's Jersey |
Well, my wonderful son Mat was born a few months after this playoff run. The Leafs have always been part of our world: Saturday nights and Hockey Night In Canada a staple. So I sit broken hearted yet again after a monumental collapse late in this season and I now watch the playoffs as a bystander. Watching hockey tonight my wife Brenda, we reminisced about one of our favourtite Mat Haggith quotes (my wife always wrote his funny quotes in a book):
I never believed that my 8 year old's words could actually come true. After more than 12 years since the quote was uttered, I have to admit I am starting to wonder if the kid is some sort of prophet.
So Brendan - what I ask of you is to make my know-it-all 20-year old wrong - he can't be right about everything. I look forward to you instilling a new culture, a winning culture. I am not delusional. I still believe. Holding on to 1993 is getting a little old, and soon I will be described as the same.
