from Don Brennan of the Ottawa Sun,
In the last 20 years, there have been few, if any, athletes to pass through Ottawa possessing more character, grit and toughness than Zenon Konopka.
And yet this week he was able to repeatedly drive along the 417, right by the Senators’ front door—an unrestricted free agent who would have jumped at an invite inside --before finally leaving town as a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
What an absolute shame.
