Mrs. Poop's Favorite Athlete of All-Time

When Mrs. Poop was a little girl, her father used to take her and her grandmother (who being Canadian loved hockey) to Hartford Whalers games.
Mrs. Poop often remarks that she's the only person whose grandmother loves hockey.
Anyway, in those days of the old Hartford Whalers, Ron Francis was the star player, and Mrs. Poop even had a little #10 Francis jersey.

Francis played 23 years in the NHL, 10 with the Whalers, scoring 549 goals. Now he has been selected for the Hockey Hall of Fame.

As the grandson of a die-hard Bruins fan, I remember watching the Whale get treated by the Bruins like Syracuse gets treated by West Virginia.

I wish hockey was still around.
