Rabid fans continue to snap up the weekly allotted tickets to catch their favourite Tomcat players in action. Those same fans are also already setting up their year-end parties as they celebrate another season that will inevitably come to a close. Weekly subscribers who have the latest inside news in Tomcat land also know there are but scant games remaining at the Kapusta this season. Those same fans are still divided when asked about Stevo’s alleged retirement.
Many believe the saga has been nothing more than a plan to sell more papers. When asked, Stevo continues to indicate he will be stepping down. His Broozzer, however, recently commented, “Stevo will leave the Tomcats organization only after a young up and comer pries the mantle of power from his cold dead hands.”
While the ‘Will he or won’t he’ guessing game continues, one solid fact I can provide Tomcats fans with is the immediate retirement of a long time player. In an exclusive interview landed by this blogger, ‘Bubbles’ has confirmed he will no longer don the equipment and play. When asked why, Bubbles stated, ‘I’m simply getting older and have been feeling some of
those inevitable hockey injuries. My back in particular hasn’t been holding up to the weekly grind, and it certainly was a scare to see Cribz get injured like that (Eye injury when he got a ball on the eye). I had to really reflect and with a heavy heart decided to no longer play.”
While Bubbles will sorely be missed, he goes out with a respectable goals and assist number, along with taste of ‘Stanley’s’ Cup. Whispers are he allegedly had 3 goals, 3 assists and 3 chicks on the side. Yup, you heard it hear first, the ‘Bubble’ has burst. And whilst your thinking of other witty bubble jokes, make sure your HANDZONMECAC.
