In January the St Louis Blues were the worst team in the NHL. Tonight they beat the Boston Bruins at home in the seventh game of the Stanley Cup. A second goal with 7 seconds left in the first period basically sealed the fate of the home team dashing my hopes for victory.
Their rookie goalie stopped every shot, but one.
Final score 4-1.
Drat.
I thought this was our year.
I was wrong.
No more ice.
Not until the start of the 2019-2020 season.
I stowed away my Bruins gear.
And as all fans say after a loss, “Next year.”
