What Bryan Did < What Brian Did

Okay, Leafs fans, admit it – it was tough to see Tyler Seguin pulling on that Bruins jersey earlier tonight when the Beantowners picked him with the Leafs’ first rounder, courtesy of the Phil Kessel trade.

I tweeted about this earlier today, though. Boston fans got to watch one highlight today that Leaf fans find […]

#Throwthesnake Goes Big Time

Things happen fast on the Internet. This should come as no news to people who, unlike myself, get around without the use of a cane and don’t spend large portions of the afternoon yelling at those damn kids to get off the lawn.

Monday morning, I checked Twitter around 9 or 9:30. I did a […]

If It’s Tuesday, We Must Be Dropping One to Dixie

The Leafs lost to the Atlanta Thrashers tonight 3-2. Where have you heard this before: Tuesday night home loss to a mediocre Southeast Division opponent.

No doubt, some folks will be into the gnashing of teeth, given the Thrashers’ two goals in less than a minute in the second period. No doubt, the Leafs fell […]

U-G-L-Y, You Ain’t Got No Alibi, You UGLY

The four ugliest men in professional hockey since the invention of the camera? Discuss.

(Glove tap to my Twitter peeps, I’m sorry, I can’t remember who participated in the discussion a couple of weekends ago.)

Predictions: Donald Fehr and the NHLPA

Hail to the Chief!

There was a report on TSN’s website Sunday night that the National Hockey League Players’ Association is preparing to offer Donald Fehr the top job with the union. Those of you following along at home will recall that the last fellow who was hired to do this job, Paul […]

Leafs Beat Lightning, Masks Fool Bowen Again

Leafs/Lightning tonight: I missed the first period because of a hellish day at work. I tweeted to my peeps that at the end of the workday, I basically felt as though I’d been paroled from the circus. Reading through the Twitter messages on the game, though, it seemed to me that the Leafs likely played […]

“Gustavsson” Scores a Goal on Sportsnet: Thanks, Joe Bowen

Sometimes in professional sports, in the latter portion of a lost season, one can get the impression that folks are just mailing it in. Akin to garbage time in a game too far out of hand to salvage, the idea is that a team can be so far out of contention for a championship or […]

Tonight: Maple Syrup > Apple Pie, in a Golden Way

Canada 3, United States 2 (OT)

Nice job, Team Canada. Brilliant.

O Canada: Maple Syrup vs. Apple Pie for Hockey Gold

George Flies the Flag

It’s forty minutes to game time – Gold Medal Game Time – here in Canada. I don’t have much time to type, as there is still much to do before my Mom and Dad join Spouse and I here in Juniorvania to watch the epic struggle for hockey […]
