GARTH'S CORNER: Combine

Whats with the Nesn copy and paste job? Pretty sure plagiarism is a no no

Never once have I claimed, nor said that.

So why you talking poop about how you can't find a civil leaf fan? You even look?

Maybe cause it's were rivals? Maybe your prejudice seeping through?

Actually, I'm a Hawks fan. I've been to every arena for a game except for Vancouver, so yes, I've looked, and for exactly 38 years now that I've been going to games.

This story has a beginning and a middle, but I can't find the end. "I've looked but"..."I've looked and"...way to build the suspense.

As I've said get what you give.

Good blog

Wow, this blog was actually informative and interesting to read. No obvious and deliberate trolling attempt at another team except maybe Boston, but I think the analysis was fair.

I'm impressed Garth...and a little disappointed at the same time.

I don't think you should count Boston out of the race, as playing for his favorite childhood team must have some allure, but it seems Vesey is smart enough he will carefully weigh the pros and cons of all his potential suitors before making a decision.

Bullpoop. Every fanbase has it's bad apples, to suggest you've been going to games for 38 years and have not once run into a "decent" Leafs fan says a lot more about you than it does about Leaf fans. This is Garth-level hyperbole.

There's decent leafs fans. Last time I saw one, I was sitting next to him in the arena. He didn't have a jersey on. I had a similar experience two years ago. Small sample size analysis suggests casual leafs fans are good people.

what did these leaf fans with jerseys on do that makes them bad people?

I've been to leafs sabre games many times in Buffalo and ice seen just as much, if not more sabre fans being jackasses.


It's so funny seeing fans complain about the way fans from other fan bases are acting. As I said maybe it's a bit of "get what you give", perhaps it's their bias creeping in.

Please.... This talk of Laine going before Matthews is just nonsensical media fabrication. Not surprising a disgruntled Sabres fan such as yourself would attempt to add validity to it.
Party on Garth

congrats on very rare and welcome quality blog Garth!

"Actually I like the Hawks - but boy oh boy Wayne Gretzky rocks"

Such a great song

... for the DURING...

Duration my friend, duration. Microsoft Word is a good program to use Garth.

No chance Matthews goes number 2.

If Buffalo was picking 1 then I'd put my money on Buffalo selecting Laine. But Toronto needs a center so I doubt they pass on RNH, sorry I mean Matthews.
