Closing Time

Another year has passed by us and we can hardly believe it.  It's always something about the  end of the season that makes us nostalgic.  All it took tonight was Anthony Stewart to tweet "Seasons Over. #justhitme #meh" to realize that it's really over. Most of the boys will be packed up and out of Raleighwood by the end of the week.  Another hot summer without hockey awaits.


Of course there's Stanley Cup action to watch until June.
And the World Championships start around the beginning of May. 


But it's just not the same without the guys here in Carolina. 


So to end this season, I'm pulling out an old stock picture that occasionally makes it's way to the web. Pretty much sums up my feelings now, especially considering the Penguins still have a chance in the playoffs. We'll miss the Canes for now, but at least there's always next year. 

This is from the last playoff game the Hurricanes played. 
May 2009.
N had front row seats to see her favorite team sweep the Canes in 4 games.
