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.<\/p>\n
I tweeted about this earlier today, though.\u00a0 Boston fans got to watch one highlight today that Leaf fans find a little galling.\u00a0 We got to watch 30 highlights last season from Mr. Kessel, with many more to come down the road.<\/p>\n
For a while, I thought that was the only way I could console myself about the Leafs’ uninvolvement in this draft.\u00a0 Then I watched as Ottawa GM Bryan Murray crapped the bed.\u00a0 With several highly ranked prospects still undrafted, he traded his pick to St. Louis for David Rundblad.\u00a0 Who?<\/p>\n
Well, exactly.\u00a0 No doubt Senators fans – the few that have learned to read, and the rest who’ve heard about this from a friend\u00a0 – are spending the evening with their tiny little heads in the oven.\u00a0 Don’t worry, in a few hours they’ll realize they have electric<\/em> appliances.<\/p>\n In the end, Burkie’s “nothing” was vastly superior to that bit of Ottawa bedshittery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 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.<\/p>\n I tweeted about this earlier today, though.
