Sorry, sir. The Devils don't have fans

When 12 per cent of your fanbase is killed while attending every home game, it makes it very difficult to build up a following.

Can't wait to hear your thoughts on Matthews and Marner after the game.
- twiztedmike


I think that Austen Matthews is a very good, All-Star caliber player. Not necessarily a "generational talent" like McDavid or Crosby, but a star player for sure. I think Mitch Marner is in the same boat. Same with Nylander, they're 3 very good, young players.

Well...it should be. Is there any reason why it's been spelled incorrectly for 100 years?

If you invited Ryan Leaf and his wife to dinner, would the Leafs be coming to dinner, or the Leaves?

I can tell the game is going to be a good one tonight, because the grammar trash talk between fan bases is really heated.

After over a decade of suck, the Leafs finally have a decent team. Not a great team, nor one that will contend for a Cup this year, but a decent one. Yet Leafs fans are crowing as if they're about to win their 3rd straight Cup. Since Philly entered the league in 1967, the Leafs have not won a Cup. Hell, they haven't even reached the finals.

During the same time period, the Flyers have won 2 Cups and been to the finals 8 times.

Dear Leaf fans, get back to us when your team actually accomplishes something. You are just embarrassing yourselves.

Oh let the gimp out for a day. Take him to an amusement park or an ice cream shop and let him check out Taylor Swift videos.
