Comedy Platinum out of Toronto - "Canada's Team" quest for the Cup

[dash]

This was actually the only stretch of the game that I was distracted for, I was kind of aware that it was happening but was barely watching. It's not the first evidence that I am bad luck as a spectator.

That Raptors run coincided with me picking up the vacuum and doing some cleaning of the man cave. I'm thinking that it was time for me to suck more and the Raptors to suck less

Good luck Raptors and Raptors fans. Congrats on this run. I was pretty excited for the Bluejays but.indont have much for the NBA but I recognize how massive this is. I hope they get it, I really do and I promise not to pretend I've been a life long raptor fan

Well done, Toronto.

Oh man the Marlies got fucking hosed out of the AHL playoffs last night.



/On the flip, they did get possession back after it went out and I don't know wtf was happening in goal there, but still.

On the subject of getting hosed:

Why did they expect otherwise?

Game 1.

Sounds like the Leafs are going to let Gordeev and Macgregor go.

Rasanen still hasn't signed a contract and wasn't great on a PTO with the Marlies this spring before the playoffs started. Nobody chosen later besides Scott seems like they have an NHL future, either.

So the only real prospect the Leafs have to show for 2017 is Liljegren. Another bang-up job by DRAFT GURU AND UNFAIRLY PASSED OVER FOR GM GUY Mark Hunter.

Sounds like the Leafs are going to let Gordeev and Macgregor go.

And there he goes.


Gordeev forever!

And there he goes.


Gordeev forever!

I'm hearing that he could develop into the big shutdown D that the Leafs really needed and flashing back to a time when I heard that Cole Cassels was going to be an absolute nightmare for Connor McDavid in the NHL. It's funny how much tougher things get when you start moving up. Best of luck to the kid though, of course.

This would be better than the Raptors winning the title.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

I suppose "working together to find him a fresh start" could mean "one-way Aeroflot to Moscow". That would be a nice way of getting that nasty little cap hit out of here.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Yeah I just can't see how this happens. If Dubas can get something done here it would be incredible.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Dubas is having a presser in 5 minutes...

 

[BGDave]

Yeah I just can't see how this happens. If Dubas can get something done here it would be incredible.

My guess is he goes to OTT for a 4th or something along those lines.

The last Leaf D we sent them worked out well

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

This is good shade.
