  1. This may sound crazy, but I still haven't accepted that I'm not going to be watching Leafs playoff hockey for the first time since 2016. This whole season has been a nightmare. I've never been more apathetic to be a fan of this team.

  2. The next game is the most important of the season. Florida V. Toronto. They are neck and neck. Neither team wants the win. Please for the luva gawd Leafs lose that game.

  3. Leafs call up Ryan Tverberg C/RW but let's scratch him and play pending UFA Calle Jarnkrok. Makes total sense. It's good to know more about Jarnkrok who's going back to play in Sweden.

  4. If Berube coaches the Leafs next season… boy oh boy…. but btw, Landon DuPont sure as hell looks good in blue and white! There is always a bright side Steve! 🙂

  5. The Islanders hired Pete DeBoer not to make the playoffs this year, they hired him for the next 3 years and he will produce a playoff winning squad in the Isles, they said can’t let this opportunity slip by, they are proactive not reactive like the Leafs management.

  6. Hire Ronnie Francis as President and GM, hire Cassidy as coach. Trade Willy get guys with heart that go in the corners.

  7. I don’t know who doing the shot count but the Leafs had a few more shots in the first that wasn’t counted. Cowan almost scored on the Leafs first shot but wasn’t counted, was that a phantom shot?

  8. My thought is that this season will end in the Leafiest way.

    1. Kings will finish tied for the last wild card……get pushed out by one too few reg wins (making the last game against the leafs the missed opportunity)

    2. The leafs will finish 28th, Kraken 27th…….Kraken will win the lottery (because they are a Bettman pet team) pushing the pick to 6th

  9. Buy Bérubé some beer and wine, like a pallet of each, and let him enjoy the rest of his Leafless life on the planet 🌎

  10. Needed the islanders to lose 😭 it’s ok this caps fan’s hopium is still alive (before I join ya’ll in the “missing the playoffs purgatory 🥲”)

  11. Why is dude all yelly and upset? We need to lose and they have a bunch of call ups in.

  12. 12:45 keep them separated until Bean is comfortable in a room. Alaska just thinks their is an intruder in the home. Once Bean has warmed up to you, introduce Alaska to Bean, at a distance, while you pet Bean.
    Once Bean is fully committed to you, reverse spots. Put Alaska in the room Bean was living in and allow Bean to explore the rest of the place. Bean will get Alaska’s scent and realize, it’s their territory. After a couple of days reverse spots again. The first day keep the door closed, but the second day have it opened. Reward them both together with treats or cat milk. Alaska will still growl, but will eventually accept him once he knows he is staying. The younger the other cat, the better.
    You should be home whenever you are integrating them in the same place to monitor their actions. If Alaska attacks Bean, start over.

  13. AVS clinch Prez trophy,& Denver beats Michigan at Frozen 4…can win their 3rd National Title in 6 yrs…4th in 9 yrs,& 11th overall-most ever on Saturday. Needless to say-much better hockey being played around these parts than Toronto as I'm sure Drew constantly reminds you-lol. I just saw a stat yesterday the AVS have been outshot only 15 times this year,& are 14-1 in those games.

  14. Steve, we gotta think BIG and OUTTA the BOX..

    1. EXUME the body of former Toronto ?? ___. Anyone from Canada knows WHO I'm talking about.. 80's pos guy.. I just played a double header and I'm from Ohio so I CAN'T CURRENTLY RECALL… Anyways, Create a memorial for him just outside of city limits. Statues and all, just as long as you get the BODY.

    2. CHANGE the color of the Jeresey from BLUE to RED. INSTANTLY becoming the team of the entire log syrup NATION.

    3. Hold a new event, called Hallowspring, mocking how no Canadian team is allowed to win the cup. Get it? Halloween is like death in fall, just like every Canadian team's death is SPRING.

  15. You could stream the Sens playoff series… I mean they're an Ontario team. Yeah, they're also a hated rival, but more than the Habs?

  16. The shot differential is a feature not a bug of Berube hockey. This result was the expected one when hiring Berube.

    Ive hated every moment of leaf hockey since Berube was hired. Leafs either win and we are told Berube is decent, we have to keep watching him coach. Or they lose and they still wont fire him!!!! Worst hire of the Matthews era by far because this result was the expected one!

    I hate it so much im cheering for the habs. They are everything i wanted out of the Matthews rebuild. Im pissed. If Berube starts as coach next year i will not watch.
