He would also be banned from the league...or get the Chara license to hold.

My best Pronger memory is when he tried to hit Yzerman from behind for the 4 millionth time. Yzerman knew he was coming and moved out of the way at the last second. Pronger blew out his ACL. Good times.

Why would round 3 be Buffalo? Why not someplace easier to fly to?
- Canada Cup

Flying doesn't matter - all charter flights.

Nice facilities. They have a hotel adjacent, as well as a practice facility.

Close to Toronto. Easy for the Leafs to run down equipment if necessary.

Pegulas are desperate for money.

In bad taste, my fav was the Grabovski incident...or the Edmonton reporter incident.

Maybe in years past when the "powerplay was our toughness" but now we have Bogo, Simmonds, Thornton, Foligno, Nash, Muzzin, Hyman and Galchenyuk they all finish their checks no flybys

Ya, I'm hoping that is the difference maker this year. And FWIW, I've seen Matthews throw the body around a bit more this year. Hoping he shows that a bit more in the play offs too.

The worry is more about the intimidation factor, hoping the boys balls have dropped fully this year.

The series against Columbus was full of this issue.

An under-rated, oft-forgotten film.

Maybe this year they re-make it about the Leafs.

He was great in the Lonely Guy.

And my late father-in-law loved him in The Heartbreak Kid.

Yes! The Lonely Guy. With Steve Martin.

Grodin: Your dog pooped on the sidewalk.

Martin:. Oh?

Grodin: I saw him do it.

Sometime during the pandemic, I re-watched The Man With Two Brains.

It's still pretty funny.

Grodin was one of those guys who was naturally funny. His demeanor. His cadence. His facial expressions. He had IT. Absolutely hilarious.

Another d that couldn’t shoot the puck hard enough to get it off the ice surface. We’ve been drafting guys like him since the eighties.

Phil was great on SNL. He could really get into the characters he was playing. 👍
