Of course, I was assuming no one (or more) superstar would come along and
take the glory.  Boston fans are more aware of coaches and owners than many
others (for example, Tom Yawkey is still revered for bringing
respectability to the Red Sox over 50 years ago, and he never even got a
World Series title for Boston).  As for my memories of Boston's last
Stanley Cup. . .I wasn't alive (couldn't resist, I'm a Rangers fan :-)
