He was an outstanding broadcaster providing many years of comforting entertainment for us regardless of the team you cheered for.

Pitchforks, knives, switchblades etc being readied for their annual use in Leaf Nation.

Not that the Jet Nation is innocent when it comes to this (insert me grabbing my pearls) but hey I just really dislike the Leafs. 🙂

Sorry not sorry?

Leafs fans grab pitchforks. Leafs grab golf clubs. A tradition like no other.

It's amazing how much air time the TNT broadcast gives a guy who can hardly play hockey

But he’s good for hockey, he’s a character, he’s blah blah blah

Nope he’s a thug, a marketing gimmick to get money out of knuckle draggers.

I think this heading is in contention for the worst sports headline of 2024.

As I got sucked into the clickbait scheme, his contract extension is nearing the finish line with the Hurricanes.

People responsible for titling articles should be be put into a headlock and be given a noogy.

as soon as the Kings turned to Rittich you knew that series was over.  Like waving a giant white flag.

If the Bruins lose this game watch out....Mathews expected back? I refuse to look on the Toronto Sports network..😄

[bustamente]

Mathews out tonight speculation that he is injured I suspect it's a groin with the way he left the ice after the Leafs got scored on. As for the Bruins you never want a game 7 when you had a 3-1 lead all the pressure is on them tonight and if they play game 7

In OT would ne nice, bonus would be an own goal. 🙂

Hate to say this...but TO has grit,top guy out and they find a way...Bruins now are definitely in trouble. If this continues might have to drop watching the NHL playoffs! 😉

Angry emoji directed at you dear sir. Wash your mouth out with soap. The Leafs could win a Stanley Cup and would still royally suck. That's a fact.
