The return of Mats Sundin.

It's official.

I'll be there, in the stands, in my No. 13 jersey, and on my feet in appreciation of the man, the legend.

What? No, I don't get tired of writing about Mats.
But thanks for asking.
Tickets went on sale Saturday morning for next month's big game. Of course, attempts to score seats through Ticket-fucking-master were futile. I got up early for nothing.
But I've managed, thanks to one of the seven wonders of the internet, to find a pair of purples for $280. A ridiculous price, I know. But one I must pay.
I was there in Edmonton back in 2003, row one behind the glass, when Sundin scored the 1000th point of his career. I was in attendance at the ACC in October 2007, when Mats became the highest-scoring Toronto Maple Leaf, ever. And I'll be there when Mats returns. Much like the picture above, I will welcome him home with open arms.
$280? Mats is worth every penny.
