Business as usual for the Toronto Maple Leafs

As in, after fifty-plus years of missing out on the finals, this supposed hockey hotbed treats us to another frustrating finale. 

Let's face it. Front office is a bunch of good ole boy hockey insiders, the kind of guys who make sure their pals have plush sinecures somewhere in the ranks. And they do! And they have and they will, no matter how bad the team these wankers are supposedly responsible for SUCKS!!!

The beautiful thing about having a Toronto franchise, and this is why the Leafs are one of the top sports brands, with a value well into the billions, for a team that hasn't come within a sniff of the Stanley Cup for over half a century, is that Canadians are so stupid they'll boycott this run-on sentence before they boycott the Leafs!

Rise up Leaf Nation. Away with Dubas. Away with Shanahan! Off with their heads!

Leafs still suck on ice, but new jerseys sure look sharp!

I see where the new Maple Leafs brain trust has unveiled a new logo.

And not only do those new jerseys look sharp, the new logo is apparently fraught with deeper meaning!

I suppose that partially compensates Leaf Nation for the fact that the new management team, old-boy NHL insiders every one, haven't been able to unveil a new attitude on the ice.

That's quite a team... Shanahan had what qualifications to be President of Hockey Operations?

Lou last won a Stanley in 2003. That's 13 years ago. The world has changed and so has the game.

And Babcock? Well, good for him for finally getting that set-for-life contract, but seriously... what's he brought so far?

As far as I'm concerned, you could have saved many millions by offering Don Cherry the combined President/GM/Coach position, and I'm sure he would have been happy to do it just for the coach's paycheque.

Hell, Don could lace up the Bauers and he'd be the first Pres/GM/PLAYER-coach in league history!

And he'd do more on the ice than some of the stiffs out there wearing that new logo.
