Our "egotistical fool" of a captain isn't as bad as people say he is. Before he played for Team Canada or whatever the hell it was, he certainly was an egotostical fool. Seem's to me like he got a little reality check when he went to play in Canada and didn't do that well. When he returned to Erie, he seemed to have stepped back a peg on his little confidence ladder (thank God). Yeah, this year definitely wasn't the best year for the boys. Towards the end, they seemed to have gotten their team chemistry up a little. Hopefully next season, they play more as a team rather than individuals. A highly disappointing season this year, but I have a good feeling that next season will be a good one.
