Oh, **** me.

(I don't do "newsfeeds" and "alerts" and so forth. The upside is that I'm not constantly bombarded by trivial crap. The downside is that I sometimes miss the actual news.)

So, to recap,

…letting Gavrikov walk means that we traded Jonathan Quick for NOTHING,

…Ken Holland is a moron and we had the worst Free Agency in the League (not just my saying that*),

…John Kelly is a great guy and it's a disgrace what happened to him in St. Louis, but this is the first year since 1973 we've had a PbP guy whom we had to import and Kelly is 65 years old so we're going to have to hire someone else pretty soon anyhow (Alex Faust is completely lost now; he's the lead guy for FOX and he's doing NFL for them, too),

…and now Kopi is hanging them up and may never see us finally get past McDirty and the rest of those scum up in Edmonton

Grump, grump, grump. Between this and the Mets and South Carolina and the Clippers probably going to prison and Leicester being back down in the "Championship" and WWE declining into unwatchable drek and driving all the fans away (deservedly), I feel like a complete black thumb. Blechhhh.

(Yes, yes, the Cowboys got humiliated and so did Illinois, but man doth not live by schädenfreude alone. Dammit )
