Gets ya right in teh feels.

All you Matt Hendricks superfans out there, I ask that you please turn away, X out your browser, and retreat to your doomsday bunkers because this is the extinction-level event you’ve been prepping for. Former Washington Capitals grinder Matt Hendricks did an interview with the Nashville Predators in his new mustard yellow jersey. All of a sudden, it’s real.

“Thirteen years ago I was drafted by this club, and I think there’s some unfinished business,” Hendricks told the Predators’ Tom Callahan, before jabbing a dagger into our figurative hockey hearts. “I’ve always wanted to put on this sweater.”

Hendricks has been embracing his new club on Twitter too. That’s been painful as well.

He updated his bio.

“@KG7ftw: @MattHendy26 you’ve still got the caps as your team in your profile. You’re a #pred, embrace it!” Good PT, I’m on it. — Matt Hendricks (@MattHendy26) July 10, 2013

He retweeted this photo from RMNB reader Chris.

Today, my boys got to sit in @MattHendy26‘s stall in the #Preds locker room. All in all, a pretty good day. #Caps pic.twitter.com/JMoaWqWelc — Chris (@GoCaps22) July 20, 2013

He even asked for some places in Nashville to fish.

Hey @PredsNHL fans, headed down to Nashville today to go house shopping. Where’s some good spots to look close to bass fishing? #lunkers — Matt Hendricks (@MattHendy26) July 23, 2013

There’s just no possible way this could get any worse.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
