A Letter to Robi

Dear Monsieur Robidas,

Bless you, broken nose and all; I don't care how many people say you've done an "adequate" job on the blueline with Russian being out. You did a stellar job before and you're doing stupendously now. I feel like I should even have some of those crackheaded scratch and sniff "You're A-MAZ-ING!" type stickers your teachers used to stick on moderately well-done schoolwork.

Robi, this made humiliating myself that one day totally worth it.

You've been extraordinarily kind to the fans, great to the team and an all around solid player.

It's nice to have you here. I'm sorry that weirdo Chris Simpson insulted you on national TV, but we like ya, Robi, and we know what you're made of.

Thanks a million,

Caitlin

It's such a nice feeling to be out of the first round.

If the Sharks beat Calgary, it'll be a Stars/Sharks second round series. Groan, groan, groan. Operation: Ignore Jeremy Roenick has been going so well, too.

Stupid Roenick.
