Over at Yahoo a poll was taken about EBUGs current rules.

Does a 98% positive fan rating count for anything?

Or does the CORPSERATE mindset rule?

I've expressed my view there and sooo subtly here.

but after one of the league's most influential franchises got embarrassed by an EBUG being the winning goalie of record against them in a nationally televised game.


Couldn't agree more

It's not an issue unless the "beloved" Leafs embarrass themselves

As a goalie, and a rink operator who knows how to drive a zamboni it was a great story to see.

Good to see a "Sudsy" mention.

My freshman year in college, at your alma mater, was the last year the Flyers practiced at the Class of 23 rink. A friend and myself would go to watch practices.
Occasionally, "Sudsy" would be suited up.
He sold us game jerseys, from the 1st set of 82-83 home jerseys, out of the trunk of his car. I got Lindbergh and my friend bought Propp.
Great memories from that year: Morganti taking breakaways on Lindbergh after practice; watching the Oilers practice twice and getting Gretzky autographs.

Thanks.

Love the conspiracy theory that Leafs brass have demanded the league review EBUG rules because they were “embarrassed”.
