The Secret Season begins.

All-Star Games are no cure for puckaholism.
Author: Bruce Mason
It started during the teenage years. Anticipation coupled with excitement created a roller-coaster effect. Up, up, up, went the emotions.
Down, down, down, they came.
My first ride was in 1992. All-Star Game? Wayne Gretzky, Brett Hull and Steve Yzerman, together on the same line? Imagine a beautiful tic-tac-toe passing clinic. Imagine a highlight-reel goal against Patrick Roy. What if Mario Lemieux scores 10 points?
Up, up, up …
… Down, down, down, they came. Because nothing happened.
Year, after year, after year. Nothing.
I created a monster, an anticipation of the best hockey of the year. But all of the stars disappeared, and the extended break from regular season games created full-fledged puckahol withdrawal.
