Finally!! This is great for the NHL because they will finally show transparency and temper the conspiracies that will inevitably come from our fanbase AND allow the NHL time to edit the recording to remove the part where Gary reaches in, mistakenly picks out a ping pong ball with a Sabres logo on it, places it back in the container, and brings out a frozen ball with the Leafs logo imprinted.

Well, it'll still bother the folks who, say, believe the moon landing was faked. However, apparently team reps will be able to witness the actual drawing?

interesting.

Pittsburg didn't have fans to piss off before they got the kid who plays for the crest on the front of the jersey.

You know why it wasn't a big deal that Pittsburgh tanked to get Sid? There wasn't any fans to give a F%^&

pens and oilers never got a fraction of the heat the sabres are getting

any why are the yotes not in this tank conversation since they gave away one of the best goalies this season and an all star d man

Then when you tell those people that with a high power telescope you can see the landing site, rover and American flag, they tell you that was placed there to complete the hoax. How did they place it there then.


Seriously though, I wouldn't be surprised that if in the back room Edmonton comes up the winner, Bettman looks at the guys in the room and says "Best 2 out of 3?".

Blame media for the attention. Someone farts 3000 miles away and it is known in 5 seconds

I don't car about the heart I care about the results. Although people in this town and others do have to right to be pissed about how things have gone over the years.

This




And Bettman being obviously committed to failing markets while places like Quebec, Seattle and others don't have a team.

The Yotes were bad even with their other players. The Leafs on the other hand... "scorched earth rebuild", and they dont even sell off their best players that would give them the value to rebuild properly (JVR, Kessel, Phanuef)... instead they sell off spare parts and the players just stop caring. If any team is tanking its the Leafs.

Or last time they were here the outside of the arena featured a parking lot, boarded up building, a rotting former hockey arena and very few if any places to eat/drink.

Why else do you think they put up all those little bridges around canalside? And then used a bridge as their logo?

Still though, why not live?
It's essentially the same as previous years.


As far as the conspiracy theorists; a team like the yotes or canes make sense, but rigging Connor to the leafs really doesn't for so many reasons

Isnt it a law firm or something running it with reps of every team present?. Way too much at stake to rig it.


But you're most likely right. Unhappy fans love their conspiracies.


Can u imagine the hate and trolling the oilers would get if we won it??!
"Another first? You guys have ruined the others! How many more do you need!!? Blah blah blah"
if lap the tears up and be so happy

The Oilers haven't ruined them, they just can't put a good team together with talented players.

its not as impressive if you realize that he spilled 1/2 of it down his shirt. I'm sure it was worth smelling like a bathroom floor for the rest of the game.

LOL there was an object blocking the smooth stream of beer. I'm sure he didn't care, out with the boys, drinking, and being "that guy" on the Top 10.
