I hear ya. Seems like only yesterday I was watching the Winnipeg Victorias host the 1896 Cup on the back of a shutout. Then came the lean years, 116 of them.
But we're back, baby! Enjoy the ride, and add a few new heroes to your wall. Those old-timers can use the company.
Yes, that 1896 Cup victory was something special. By the way, you still owe me 2 c for the beer I bought you. With inflation, you owe me $12,486,897.15.
It was a long wait after that 1896 Cup victory before I was watching the Winnipeg Falcons capture the Allan cup in 1920 which of course led to the steam ship across the Atlantic (that was a bitch, everyone was seasick for almost a week), but well worth seeing the Falcons represent Canada to capture the first Olympic Gold Medal in Ice Hockey in Antwerp in 1920. Oh, those were the days. Glad they are back!
