Left Coast Leafs Podcast

I'm happy for everyone who will finally be able to afford to see their first Leafs game over the next 6 weeks.

Ugh. I know

Not great at all.

Conversely, Corporations masquerading as teams are too worried about public perception

Only Toronto players have babies

...

We need more truculance

I don't provide explanations.

Not sure the best course of action is to rebuild your hockey opps off the unemployment line mid season. If there is a plan, and I'm not convinced there is, it likely involves someone who's currently working. Either way, they don't exude confidence.

Just our luck we're missing the playoffs in the same season Auston Matthews figured it out the whole clutch thing. Gosh darn it.

The media and fans are what's wrong with the market

If the decision hasn't been made to push for the basement, what are we even doing here?

Using my free will to watch the new Bob Does Sports Episode

It's easier to get back to my default dislike for Bennet, Marchand and Reinhart now that they're just Silver Medalists

The positive fan reaction to the signing of Max Scherzer, a guy who likely brings nothing to the table at the end of the day, debunks so hard the myth the Toronto market is so hard to play in. Just be likeable. Show some emotion. Win every 50 years or so. You'll be golden.

Take that Pelly and your red glasses!

How dare Berube try win. Fireable!

The extra two weeks off in the off season is going to pay off in spades next season.

OEL taking a penalty during a goal celebration is his way of making sure Pelly doesn't get any stupid ideas about exactly what they are.

There's not a hope in hell the Leafs have anything close to that set play in their own PP playback.

For those of you with Cablevision, tonight's game is a national broadcast. So no chasing streams.

Too many posts about the hockey guys. They went to the White House because they like Trump, simple as. There's no analysis to be done here. 98% of the Canadian players would do the same thing. Hockey culture is cancer, always has been. Fuck them all.

I feel like everything you listed is stuff that is out of our control as sports fans and definitely part of the cursed franchise we cheer for. Except the Matthews stuff. Our reactions to it and how we want to frame it is 100% an individual choice. There's no right or wrong fan reaction

No way?

We all had elite Hockey players in our schools and communities growing up. Think about the worst of them. Now give them unlimited financial security. Do you think they watch the news? Do you think they give a fuck about anything? Even the "nice" ones. 20 rich,under developed boys.

Our outrage will pass. It always does. The algorithm and the act and distract tactic of the US administration will wave a new shiny thing in a couple days and we'll move on.
Do fun things.

Morgan Rielly is going to make you forget all your outrage since Sunday.
