Re: Welcome to the Division

Dear Mr. Bertuzzi,

Now that you're going to be playing 32 games each year within the Southeast Division, I think I speak on behalf of all Capitals, 'Canes, Lightning and Thrashers fans when I make the following request: please don't cripple any of our players in a steroid-induced neanderthal fit of cheap-shot rage. It's really not good for you, your team, the League, or your potential victim who likely will never play hockey again.

Cordially,

J.P.

P.S. Feel free to respond via hand signals, as I know that you often find verbal forms of communication quite challenging.
