What you feared is true: the Prince Rabbits are no more

Pour one out for the Seibu Prince Rabbits: they officially folded (hat tip: Greatest Hockey Legends). It's certainly sad that instead of being an "introduction" to Japanese hockey, Chris Kontos' great fly-on-the-wall piece may instead be more like a solemn goodbye.

We're just going to hold out hope that this is a cruel April Fool's Day joke.

In the words of Boyz II Men, it's so hard to say goodbye. If it truly is the last Prince Rabbit season, I'm even more amazed that I got a chance to see some Japan playoff hockey.

Sometimes things just come together perfectly, don't they?
