Here for the music, hockey and avoidance of a certain sociopathic billionaire bond villain.
I'm a Leaf fan who had the Panthers taking the cup again and sweeping the leafs. But the woe is me narrative for a team younger than my 37 years on earth is a bit much.

One hell of a team. Thank God for that Gregory Campbell hire. 😉

Rhetorical in a way. I'm in a bleak state today. I think this is just like the pension days. Ownership is our biggest issue. Soulless corprate board of some of Canadas worst. They seem to love fans money but resent them as people.

Who hired him?
May 19, 2025 at 5:18 PM
If this was the NFL Shanny, Marner, and rielly would have been gone 5-7 years ago.

Mighty? He's a weak person doing the weak thing, not being able to accept reality.
May 19, 2025 at 5:14 PM
Should have not made any deals. The team this year was a fraud from the hop. I stand by it. The mirage of being better was simply the injured TBL and FLA.

TOR was still the 3rd in the ATL.

Oilers can get bent. Bowman doesn't deserve his name on the cup.

I have more respect for the Bruins players who stood up to management over Miller than a single Oilers star. Which is so sad as I was fully on bandwagon last year.

Bowman's management group wrote Aldrich a letter of recommendation!

Yup, misread it. Berube was never the answer for this group.

I think it's a mutual mismatch. He thought he could get them to care enough to consistently play defense.

Shanny still thought that getting certain players to engage was possible.

I've said that since the rumors of his hire started.

He won the most improbable cup with a hasek level goalie. That's it.

Nightmare hire.

This one honestly hurts the least. I'm feeling a true sense of relief. It is unsettling.
May 19, 2025 at 4:15 AM
What are some president candidates to replace Shanny?

Considering it's a minimum of 4 years over due, they have to have some ideas.

Oh rielly and matthews have and will take their blame. But their is a tiring to it. Marner has never once shown up in late round games. Except kind of against Boston pre pandemic.

And his entire representation off ice is toxic and self impprtsnt in a heavily engaged massive fan base. It's tiring.

Rushing the into the offensive zone, stopping up on the half boards with 3 Panthers closing in leading a turnover, and easy out opposed to taking it deep into the corner will be my lasting memory of this one time 100pt player.
May 19, 2025 at 4:05 AM
Which is fair. Americans don't seem to want to be bothered with actively engaging in their political process. This is the result.

The choice of Tchaikovsky, a great Russian composer, is a nice touch.
May 19, 2025 at 3:47 AM
I do appreciate the banter, but the most cringe thing about the NHL is 31 fan bases, making their identity hating a team that hasn't won a cup since the moon landing.

Real Leaf fans know they suck. We just want them to be good. Hate a real team.

I'll feel even more optimistic if it's also office clean out day.

I assumed Colon Campbell was in the building considering the booing.

I can get angry, but I sleep well knowing his state will be under water soon.

If you're rich, we should assume you are corrupt. It's only a matter of to what degree.

You straight up can't amass billions without doing shady crap. I've worked for enough big corporations to know this to be factual.

I'm going to be sick if the final is EDM-CAR. are they going to make me cheer for FLA!?

Even as a CDN, I refuse to cheer for a team that employs Stan Bowman. At least the Bruins players had a line and stood up to their front office on Miller. I've lost all respect for the Oilers dressing room.

The Village People performed at Trump's 2025 inauguration! I think it's time to move on from this song.
