I'm still so confused that Versteeg is Canadian. What the hell, man.

Cubs of hockey! YEAH!

He is a very American-seeming dude, isn't he?

I took my sister to a Team Canada game at the ACC and she looked up and saw all the Stanley Cup banners in the rafters and was like, "Wait, are those Stanley Cups? Toronto used to WIN?" and I was just like, from the mouths of babes ;____________;

Say what you will about Brian Burke as a hockey mind, but he is an upstanding fucking dude on a personal level and I will fight you if you say otherwise.

CO-FUCKING-SIGNED

I seriously want to meet him so I can shake his hand and be all embarrassingly sincere at him.

I want to troll you about the 2 first round draft picks for Phil Kessel but I'm not that much of an asshole.

I'm SO, SO GLAD that Versteeg is playing in a city that can properly appreciate him and call out how country stupid he is all the damn time. Like, he's just so amazing and I want people to be able to hug and slap him exactly as much as he deserves.

I see Grabovski is sort of a perfect match for Toronto, with an opinion like that about the Habs. I'm sure the people of Toronto were just horrified at him beating up a Habs fan.

Is it true that it's been mathematically proven that the Leafs do better the less amount of time Lebda's on the ice? I don't know where I heard this, but I desperately want it to be true.

We troll ourselves/self-flagellate about it enough that there is very likely nothing you can say that I haven't already heard.

The problem with Steeger being in Toronto is that our media/club PR feel absolutely zero compulsion to do things to seriously get people involved, or to share the team's ~personality~ with the fans, so we have had a few interviewers ask him oh-so-clever questions about his rapping but nobody has ever sat down in the dressing room and filmed him dropping science. YOU ARE WASTING AN AMAZING NATURAL RESOURCE, ASSHOLES!

re: Lebda, pretty much. Pension Plan Puppets would likely have more on that. Also we are like 12-0-3 when Steeger scores!

You clearly need more Swedes. (This was a highly enjoyable primer.)

I think our Swedes would agree with that!
