For Pat Quinn

I was lost and double crossedWith my hands behind my backI was long time hurtThrown in the dirtShoved out on the railroad trackI've been used, abused andso confusedAnd I had nowhere to runBut I stood and looked And my eyes got hookedOn that beautiful morning sunAnd it seems like, and it feels likeA Brand new day.-Van MorrisonListening to Pat Quinn's media conferences and comparing them to the early days is kind of like watching a man give up hope. It reminds me of Ray Milland in Lost Weekend. I don't know how much they're paying Pat, but it isn't worth it.And I'm certain Craig MacTavish is sleeping better.A quick note to Steve Tambellini and Kevin Lowe: it isn't working. Patience my ass. Do something.A quick note to Daryl Katz: You are the owner, you know. Loyalty and staying the course are admirable qualities, but so is fixing what is broken. Just saying.
