Don Cherry not being in the
@HockeyHallFame
is the most absurd omission of any figure from any sport's hall of fame.
After your Orrs, Gretzkys, & Lemieuxs, no man better personifies the game of hockey.
He is synonymous with Canadian hockey & one of the game's greatest builders
Zach Hyman is now a mere five goals from the all-time NHL playoff record!
Kyle Dubas let him walk and replaced him with Michael Bunting!

People are getting offended by a picture of two cartoon bears wearing hockey jerseys.
Can you imagine if the Pronouns ever watched an episode of South Park, or went outside and interacted with real people?
The pic is hilarious.

Canceled immediately:
-bring your dog to work day
-music at practices
-days off after blowouts
-locker room speeches that include "Relax, breathe, and have fun with it."

Never before has an incident so clearly underlined the difference between hockey guys and casuals who just like to watch hockey.
Those who don't know the code will never get it, and you shouldn't take their opinions seriously.
You either get this or you don't.

Watching real NHL men and the general public dunk on Daniel Carcillo over the last 20 hours been great, but let's revisit the time Grapes exposed him for the kind of player he was:
Rick Tocchet's resume:
-developed under Mike Keenan
-won a Cup with Mario Lemieux
-coached alongside Wayne Gretzky
-18 career Gordie Howe hat tricks
-top notch analyst
Sheldon Keefe's resume:
-is Kyle Dubas' buddy

🚨 UPDATE 🚨
The cartoon bear assaulted in the AI meme has filed a cartoon police report with the Cartoon PD, and cartoon mental health services have been made available to the cartoon victim.
The cartoon police continue their search for the cartoon suspect.

@hockeynight
destroyed itself by firing the voice of Canadian Hockey and was transformed from a hockey show to a far-leftist, social-issues discussion forum.
Real hockey fans miss Don Cherry, the greatest analyst to ever do it.
Happy birthday to
-the Jack Adams-winning coach of Bobby Orr
-the greatest NHL analyst of all time
-the man who built Hockey Night in Canada
-one of the game's greatest builders
-the man with one of the most successful hockey careers in history

@CoachsCornerDC
It's time for MLSE to clean up the mess they made when foolishly handed the Presidency to Brendan Shanahan, who surfed on name recognition alone--not front office experience.
He is ultimately to blame, as he had Lou and chose Dubas over that hockey super mind.
#LeafsForever
I'm not watching
@hockeynight
until Ron MacLean and Jennifer Botterill have been dismissed.
I just can't take those two anymore.
I used to LOVE this show.

#SocialJusticeNightInCanada
Ron MacLean would be doing weekly forecasts in Red Deer, Alberta if not for Don Cherry's coattails.
I'd pay good money to get him off any and all hockey broadcasts.
Zach Hyman, the only
#LeafsForever
who has consistently played with heart and a willingness to get his hands dirty, will soon play for another team--and it's 100% because of the millions of dollars taken off the table during the Core Fore™ negotiations.

To TSN: NEVER, EVER PUBLISH ANOTHER TRADE-NYLANDER ARTICLE OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A FAN BASE THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF CLICKBAIT & NONSENSE. BE CAUTIOUS!
Can we get some transparency on the alleged departure of that snake, Ron MacLean,
@hockeynight
?
Removing that traitor is Step Number One in getting a fraction of your audience back, but most of us will never forget how you treated the great man and legend, Don Cherry.

The

The Flyers were the Joke of the NHL when Torts arrived, but are now tied with Toronto in points.
That's after just one season of accountability in Philadelphia.
Feels like we're winning.
The

aren't the softest team in the league anymore.
Dubas is GONE.
A Leaf fight was the talk of the hockey world last night.
The nerds are angry.
The hockey fans are satisfied.
The world is healing.
Gord Miller sat through:

Gord miller leaving twitter/X because Elon musk and his team haven’t removed the Corey Perry speculation..

They should really give us audio options during broadcasts. For example, you could choose Joe Bowen’s calls over Sportsnet’s guys, and during intermissions you could have a donkey hee-hawing when Nick Kypreos talks.
Twitter search "Botterill" if you want a cheap laugh.
@SportsnetPR
: read the room.
Nobody wants to hear her mouth. She is poison to the game of hockey and a danger to children who might listen to her BS.
Crazy idea!
How about no more anti-hockey analysts?
#LeafsForever
Hall of Famer Lou took over a mess of a team, turned them right around, & is currently on pace to finish 2nd in the East.
Dubas inherited a record-setting Leafs team, regressed last year, and is now crossing their fingers for a wild card spot.
"bUt ThE kOmArOv CoNtRaCt!"
😂😂
We should compromise.
The Campbells, Coxes, Botterills & all who hate violence can cover PWHL, which doesn't have the violence they hate so much.
The Bissonnettes, Averys, Messiers, Chelioses & all who like good old fashioned hockey can cover the NHL.
EVERYONE is satisfied.
Only three teams in the NHL have less points than the Pittsburgh Penguins.
-28th in PIMs
-30th in PIMs against
-28th in hits per game
-4 points out of a possible 12
-Karlsson 10M a year
They asked for Kyle Dubas, and they're getting Kyle Dubas.

notes:
-Dubas era over
-Core Fore™ must be dismantled
-failed experiment
-1 round won out of 8
-Shanahan 9 years
-Dubas 5 years
-enough is enough
-new culture needed
-fire the front office
-trade Auston Nashews before he walks
-I TRIED TO TELL YOU
So Sportsnet fired a guy who spent his entire young adult life as a hockey player, won championships with Rochester, coached Bobby Orr to the Final, twice, won a Jack Adams trophy, then spent nearly 40 years analyzing & promoting the game...
...and hired a dude who can't skate??

Our coach has four players making 11M a season, and he says last night's competition was out of their league.
I am so tired of that weakling.

#LeafsForever
"I would sit him the rest of the game."
Nylander is heartless and must be removed from the roster immediately. This same stuff happens every single spring.
#LeafsForever
Watched a video of an interview with Chief Berube last night.
Host asked him if all the NHL coaches got into a brawl, who would be left standing.
His response was "I think I'd come out on top."
This is the masculinity the
#LeafsForever
have lacked for too long.
So nice to find a stream from the Detroit broadcast.
No Ron MacLean.
No Jennifer Botterill.
No analysts talking shit about the sport.
Nobkdy talking about gender equality, or black lives mattering, or about mean words hurting feelings.
Just good, old-fashioned hockey talk.
Keefe is out of his element against a giant like Patrick Roy.
Roy forgot more about hockey, yesterday, than Keefe will ever know.
My complaint is that an original six team should have a giant behind the bench, not a substitute teacher.
#LeafsForever
Tavares just got an Ontario drivers license, signed a four year lease on a downtown condo, purchased two SUVs from a North York dealership, is wearing an “I ❤️ Toronto” t-shirt, & changed his name to “Johnny Toronto.”
In no way does that mean a final decision had been made.
I'll say again, this is what you get when you send a group of boys who carry purses to the rink to do battle with bearded warriors.
It's a broken record, and I'm tired of it.
The speed and skill approach killed this rebuild--they're scared out there.
#LeafsForever
#FireDubas
Zach Hyman simply won't quit.
Letting him walk was one of several career-defining moments for Dubas, and indeed the
#LeafsForever
themselves.
Horrible loss.
Toronto media is dead silent on Mason Marchment, who appears to be growing in a premier power forward in Florida: a point per game player with an incredible 15 hits in his 5 games played.
Dubas traded him for a miniature poodle who will never see NHL ice.
#LeafsForever
#FireDubas
The moment that Dubas hanged himself.
The balls on this guy, to give such an unsure response to returning to one of the most coveted jobs in all of sports, only to demand a raise two days later!
And I mean the sheer audacity of that loser, wtf.
#LeafsForever
The Penguins have lost their fourth straight game, leaving them with a paltry two-point lead on CBJ in the battle of the Metropolitan's basement.
-31st in PIMs
-32nd in PIMs against (dead last)
-31st in majors
-28th in hits per game
Dubas has brought soft hockey to Pittsburgh.
Remember when Dubas lied through his teeth about popping up somewhere else next week?
He just can't and won't put his family through that, you see.
Well, it's next week, and he's popped up in Pittsburgh.
The guy is a con artist and monorail salesman.
#Dishonesty

Good god, what do we have to do to get that Ron MacLean fuck off our broadcasts??
Prattling on about a 42 year old song that has nothing to do with hockey.
Just awful.

Max Domi, when asked about a

These are the types of players we've been pounding our fists on the tables for, over the last five years.

I'll start watching
@hockeynight
again when Ron the Snake MacLean and Jennifer "Words Can Injure" Botterill are replaced by actual, former NHL talent.
Until then, it's mute when I see this grade-Z panel doing their social engineering.
Darcy Tucker was not some little, yapping chihuahua--he was a one-man demolition crew. Just imagine if the current
#LeafsForever
had a player with the tenacity and heart of this warrior. I bet they could beat teams like Montreal and Columbus in the playoffs if they had one.
