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

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Truly worth a thousand words.

I’m starting to wonder if there’s enough to Mikhayev to draw interest from other teams despite the fact the guy clearly hasn’t recovered his shot. If the Leafs have to clear space to get more talent on the roster and Kerfoot is one component to go, Soupy’s $1.6m hit this year and next would add just enough to maybe increase the return and once Simmonds is back and Robertson back with the big club (he will have to go back to the O or stick with the Leafs once the O starts back up and he’s playing at almost a PPG in the A right now) I’m not sure there’s a spot on any wing for him above the fourth line and that’s just a waste.

His follow up tweet says Brodie has been “invisible”, which, I agree. I haven’t seen him make a single mistake that makes me want to break my TV, something Zaitsev does literally nightly.

I dunno. The Leaf derangement syndrome is running fucking strong this season.

I love that Thornton was the one who gave him the name and Willy (supposedly) has no idea why. Apparently this is a Thornton thing, too:

You have to like the respect that McDavid has for Matthews, I mean, Matthews hasn't played in the first two games of this series with Edmonton and apparently McDavid decided to take them off as well.

The “North division sucks so the Leafs have it easy” trope has kinda run out on me since from the looks of it most of the teams in the league right now outside Canada fucking suck too.

Good to see TJ having a fine start with the Leafs...

It's still half a season in but I was wrong about Dubas' "infatuation" with Brodie and he's been very good for the Leafs.

Now I can only imagine how much better last season may have gone had Naz not veto'd the Calgary trade.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Speaking of trades, I have a feeling the Leafs will make one by the end of the weekend.

I'm not a big Kadri fan, but you can't question how much he cares (sometimes too much) and it sure would have been nice to recoup something back for TJ. Sigh.

At the very least he would score 2 goals per game against the Leafs this season.

I’d even just like back the second rounders dickhead gave up for Brian Boyle and Tomas Plekanec back.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

This was so satisfying.
