Thats no honourable mention. That’s the actual winner. I stand corrected.

MAK was just a plain old mistake. 20/20 hindsight. MAK had been injured and his club form was off - but he had rebounded for Canada (he was getting significant Canada minutes when he was acquired,...

You have mischaracterized the cost of Ibarra.

Ibarra was the single dumbest move in team history, and that is saying something. Only in very specific situations (ie contenders with very specific...

Something weird and obvious just occurred to me.

Choiniere went public with his trade demand right after the deadline… what exactly pushed him over the edge?

What if Choiniere is the deal TFC...

^IF there is anything to that story (big if)... that slot was filled by Etienne.

Let's give Hernandez and Herdman some credit here. This guy is not coming, unless one of the Italians leave.

^We should maybe pivot to Choiniere anyway, if that story was real

This happened to me with Vanney. I hated that hire when it happened. It took me 18 months to come around.

It is interesting to see the tremendous focus the dual President/GM structure at the Leafs is getting in the media, now that Shanahan is in the hotseat.

Shanahan is on his last contract year and...

^ US and Canadian accounting would be very similar on this.

This is a subset of a bigger problem. All kinds of valuable intangible assets (including virtually everything in tech and media...

A story I tripped over, in a corner of the internet far from traditional sports media.

This seems like it's worth keeping an eye on
...

I only watched the first 20 minutes and the highlights afterwards... I was wrong. We are better than Dallas, and we showed it.

Caldwell saying Petretta faked that injury… he really is the worst with this stuff… flashbacks to when Beitashour got put in the hospital for 2 months on what was the dirtiest play I have ever seen...

^Interesting loophole.

“hey Ayo, if you quit, we can offer you 500K to make some speeches at the Academy for 6 months… whaddaya say?”

My view is unchanged. Richie will be at Copa and may well return to action… in Rotterdam.

They showed Laryea on the jumbotron at the Leafs game last night. He was smiling, happy. He was sitting in one of the boxes, so unable to provide any fitness update.

Right. Thank you.

This may be a dumb question… but re Ayo, didn’t we know this already? He is on 700K plus…. Isn’t anyone whose salary is over $680K - or some such - a TAM player?

Every team in the league would think about this though. 25 year olds that look really good, all star caliber, but have missed their window to go to Europe, are kind of gold in the league. There are...

I think it'll take more than a million in GAM, plus somebody we value (Franklin?) to get Choiniere. Similar to what it took to bring Kaye in. Choiniere has done less than Kaye had at the time of that...

I don’t buy the idea that Dallas is a weak team.

They were a playoff team last year, they hustle, I love the way the play (but haven’t seen a full game of theirs yet in 2024).

They have...

Just speedwatched. Wow.

Our first goal was one of our 10 best ever.

The winner, that was nice work from Fede, and Prince got it on net … but that was a howler- what the hell was El Pulpo...

In today's edition of “why Saturday night games make little sense for Canadian teams”… we will now proceed, for the second consecutive game, to suppress the ratings by going head to head with the NHL...

Yawn. Did Mullins stay in shape? Can we get him back?

I am going to confuse Etienne with CJ Sapong and Dom Dwyer, until and unless he gives us a reason to do otherwise. (Yes, I know, Etienne is...

Etienne has no resemblance to the player Hernandez described. Did they do this just to save face?

Time for some plain speaking.

Hernandez should not have the job. He may be a great guy with potential… talk to me in 2030.

He needs to learn the craft in a winning organization. What on earth...
