Rip, am I right in remembering his avatar, an animated pixelated lion looking side to side? Had no idea we lost jfont as well who I think had a batman avatar or something like it

Good memory. Yeah, those were their avatars.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Just terrible news; may he rest in peace.

Always gnarly to see longtime posters pass away. A reminder of our own mortality and that I was in my early 20s when I started posting here and late teens back on Gann's site and LGK. Now I'm almost 44 and am the old guy now.

I also forgot to mention that it is things like this that underscore how Bluc have just pissed away years of our fandom.

I've been a fan since Gretzky but not a "don't miss a game" guy until 1996. That is 28 years but includes a lost lockout season.

Using 28 years as the number, Bluc have pissed away 25% of my total time as a fanatical Kings fan and ~30% of my time as a season ticket holder.

Hope Legionnaire was more on the side of enjoying the last few years than I've been.

Many of us are older than 44.
Remember I was in 'Nam with Forrest

But you're sitting pretty with that Apple money so you don't have to worry about money no more.

That's true, you are the old guy.

So sorry to hear of his passing. I remember his opinions (and yours) way back on LGK. His were the posts I always enjoyed reading.

Prayers of peace to his family and friends.

 

[Dooney]

Thank you everyone for the kind words! I appreciate it. I truly am heart broken . We actually did plan to be together again after his mother and my father passed as we are both caregivers to elderly parents. Sadly god had other plans but I rest assured that one day we will be together again. Many thought we hated each other at the end but we didn’t. Our love never really died, it was just complicated. Thank you all again. Yes we did get our start on LGK. Our PM’s were him to me- HRN rules me to him- LL420 rocks and who are you? It two years to find out

 

[Dooney]

Aww man say it ain’t so. We’ve lost some good ones on here from back in the day, Punchy, Tikkanen, jfont. RIP legionnaire

Do you remember at the lockout game there was, we were talking and I asked you if LL420 was here, you said yeah he is sitting over there and we turned around and he was gone!!

 

[Kurrilino]

My heart is broken....

We have been mostly on the opposite side of arguments but this is irrelevant.
May you find peace and happiness wherever you are now.

All of us will miss you dearly

I remember him back thru my other 2 namechanges Ronnykneecaps and kingsfan8888 I think I played pickup with him a time or 2 back in early 2000’s RIP dude.

 

[Buddy The Elf]

Sad to hear... hopefully he wasn't too young like Tikkanen. Sad either way. RIP

 

[Bandit]

Really sorry to hear this. He was around at least as long as I have been. RIP bud.

 

[Dooney]

Sad to hear... hopefully he wasn't too young like Tikkanen. Sad either way. RIP

He was 49

 

[theMajor]

way too young

 

[Slats432]

Popping in as an OG. There are those of us that hear a name of another longtimer with instant familiarity. Much respect to Tim/Legionnaire and thoughts go out to his close friends and family.

May he rest in peace.

 

[Buddy The Elf]

He was 49

Awww man.. that's such a bummer. Godspeed to you and his family!

RIP Tim.
