As someone who just spent some time in Toronto I have to admit that it is good and a cool place. Maybe it'd be more annoying if I had to deal with Torontonians all the time but it's a cool city to visit and everyone I met was nice.

If we can take a break from the annual Leafs meltdown, did we see the Whalers gear the Hurricanes were wearing? Still a top 5 logo. It just looks wrong being worn in a completely different market like that. Same would go for the Avs wearing a straight up Nordiques sweater. As far as I can remember, they’ve done mix ups and not only the straight old jersey, but correct me when I’m wrong.

They wore them in a game a few years ago and used Brass Bonanza for their goal song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfOArgEQ7U4

Yeah, they still look really good and I love that they used Brass Bonanza. It really makes me think that there's a bunch of old hockey fans in Connecticut cursing at the TV because they can't go see the Whalers even though they look like they're playing.

They could have cared about the game the previous 59 minutes, 54 seconds. They sucked rear end that whole game and when a kid celebrated winning then they gotta go cheapshot him with intent to injure. Gutless. Suspend Reilly 6 games, fine him the $5000 and fine Keefe $10,000 for a player instigating in the last 5 minutes.

The Leafs are the biggest pissbabies in the league and their fans are worse.

Give Rielly 10 for all I care, 20 if this league was serious, but if you think the Leafs and Rielly are somehow alone in how they would react to something like that I think you’re fooling yourself.

I think it’s weird that people are trying to make the culture of decorum and assault specifically a Rielly thing or a Leafs thing, if that comes off as persecuted :shrug:

Should've just targeted the knee or something. If there's one thing this sport doesn't need, it's goal scoring and celebrating and ESPECIALLY anything entertaining.

I knew boxc would have a level-headed take on this situation (specifically that Rielly was correct to level Greig's head)

Parros has consistently suspended Leafs for longer than other players who did similar things and also not given a poo poo the 3-4 times Bunting was crosschecked in the head the last couple of seasons. Maybe he does the same for other teams that I don't follow, or just sucks at his job.
