One last lap at The Big O in Belfast. A Captain, Leader & Legend, signing off with the MOM award & the Giants queueing up to salute him with handshakes & hugs speaks volumes. Good luck in your next chapter Sir! 🧡

As you skull your last beer & head to bed spare a thought for this legend driving & boating through the night before heading straight to the arena to prep & have the place perfect so the boys just have to turn up and play. He’s some man for one man. My man. Sending hugs Bro.

The Panthers could have shut it down in October but they didn’t. They could have left an even bigger void for people. They didn’t. They’re in a tough spot, players could & probably should stop & get help but for the greater good of their Org & the league they keep going. 👏🏼

As I think towards 2019 & beyond someone made me think about the Giants & will I always be a Giant? The answer is, yes, of course, because they represent more than hockey, they play with the name of my City on their chest. I’m not a fan. I am a Giant. Since then, until the end ❤️
