It scares the crap out of me because I honestly have no idea why he is here or what good he will do. It goes against the whole idea of being a progressive, cutting-edge organization from the ground up.

The guy is a Dinosaur who had success in New Jersey because they had Brodeur.

It's decorum. Cultivate professionalism - excise the sense of player entitlement. Clean yourself up on the road by wearing a suit, mentor the young management team. Be the bad guy kicking the media off the charter. He isn't in Toronto to guide the re-build; he's there to lend credibility and a rolodex to MLSE while collecting a handsome cheque and then ride off into the sunset in 3 seasons to be the new Cliff Fletcher advisor.

No one is doing any such thing.
He said people were making fun of the leafs in 87 and that it was only 20 years shy of 67....which he suggested is not recent memory.....but that 93 was recent memory.... so where were these people making fun of the leafs that still resonates with him.....and did either one of them suggest that 67 was or wasnt a recent memory at that time.

jam this.

FFS know what I am arguing about... leafs are a joke... but the other Canadian franchises do not have much more to show over the last 22 years
- jribout

True except for several final appearances, more recent stanley cups (past 22 years I know), young talent, and not as many horrible trades.

I hear ya.

But do either of those fan bases claim to be the center of the hockey universe?

Ok no more leaf talk....its just sad.

Back to the Jays....or really anything else.

- Fakepartofme


The centre of the hockey universe is where the hall of fame is located, where they go to for replay reviews, where the NHL team is one of the oldest and where the biggest minor hockey league in the world is located. It's not a matter of claim, but fact.

Damn right Tony

If we suck, this is how not to play

If we excel, this is how you play

It's all about Toronto.
