A Year of Don't Trade Vinny


Well, today is DTV’s anniversary.  My little blog is a year old.  

When I started this thing, I figured my readership would consist of me, and like eight other guys who hated Rick Tocchet.  As it stands now, my readership has morphed into me, eight other guys, and like two strange women who hated Rick Tocchet too.  Now we’re talking.

When DTV was born, the Lightning were amidst one of the most laughable ownership/management situations in the history of history, and about to embark on a crash course to the bottom of the conference for the third year in a row.  As it stands now, we’ve got a Jedi GM, a coach who still scares the living hell out of me (in the good way), and we’re tied for the most points in the Eastern Conference.  Now we’re talking.

It’s been a crazy year, both personally for me, and for the team, but it’s made for some laughs.  Below you’ll find the links to The Best of DTV.  As for the future: Only time will tell.  Two things are for sure.  One, this blog will very soon turn into DontTradeVinny.com.  Two, we’ve got a new layout in the works that should makes things a little easier to read.  Ya know, like how Brian Lawton skips through the pages of a book until he finds the pictures.  Kind of like that.

Thank you, my handful of readers.  It’s been a fun year.

  3. I was fine. Until you mentioned Brian Lawton, and I got shaken to the core.

    Congrats on the anniversary!
