https://twitter.com/Zeisberger/status/1287391279349981184 Before my time but I met him as a kid in the parking lot of the St. Lawrence Market and he couldn't have been a nicer guy.

Just because I'm bored... Tomorrow they'll announce this year's inductees into the HHOF. Jarome Iginla, in his first year on the ballot, seems like the only sure thing. Marian Hossa, despite still technically being under contract, is also on the ballot and it seems crazy to me that he wouldn't...

An interesting opinion piece in the New York Times today, some of the choice points being made are: These are all paragraph headers that are then elaborated on. Basically the argument makes the case that eating meat regularly is bad for our health, our wallets, our planet and animals...

Just as a way to keep busy or engage the board I thought I'd start with asking people to name their personal team of favourite Leafs. Not best, just guys you like or you associate with your fandom. Naming 13 forwards, 7 d, 3 goalies. If you want it to be guys you didn't see from the olden...

Well might as well start this off with a nutty trade: To Dodgers: Mookie Betts, David Price To Twins: Kenta Maeda To Red Sox: Alex Verdugo, Brusdar Graterol So, to cap it off, an incredibly profitable team in a huge market traded one of the best players in the world because they didn't want to...

https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/1217070616815308803 Lot of money/term for a 32 year old but Backstrom is pretty durable. Only played fewer than 75 games in a full season once. Also, and this came as a bit of a shocker to me, but he's almost at this point a 100% guaranteed lock of a...

Russia banned for 4 years from international competition This apparently will also apply to the FIFA World Cup. Not sure if it applies  any IIHF stuff but apparently, like the last Olympics, clean Russian athletes will be apply to compete as independents.

Just a thread I thought I'd post for some discussions about what we might like to see the Jays do next year. Personally, I'm pretty high on where they finished the year and think they really have an opportunity to improve the team with some smart free agent signings. They've only got 41 million...

Sooner or later, and I think it's almost certainly sooner, someone at Sportsnet is really going to have to answer whether "Do Immigrants buy enough poppies?" is the conversation they want their hockey broadcasts to start.  mod edit: https://twitter.com/SportsnetPR/status/1193983313272279040

Without wanting to get too political, thought this deserved a thread. It looks like a Liberal Minority government at this point with everyone calling it for the Liberals already: https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/federal/2019/results/

https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1185619666150068224 Kind of makes Marner look like small potatoes. .023% of the cap per point.

So obviously this is entirely speculation but it seems now that there at least seems to be at least some sort of "McDavid might ask for a trade" vibe out there what with the continued seasons of futility and his now being reduced to playing with pretty depressing linemates. So, without...

Vasilevsky extends in Tampa. 8 years, 9.5 AAV.

Per Friedman I mean...lol.

So in yet another of our slow summer, there's nothing to talk about exercises, I'll put this classic to the board. If you're given ultimate power over the league to make the changes you want to make to it, how are you changing the NHL as it currently is? What rule tweaks, big or small, do you...
