Hope you enjoyed your time at Parkwoods since hockey is the greatest game.

Anyone play shinny at Broadlands? Loved the sound of fresh ice in the morning!

Damn I am older than most of you.

Yep.

And free skate to Meatloaf on the PA all the time when I was a kid too.

On east side of VP, in a plaza just south of Lawrence.

Back when wings were cheap, K.C. McFly's was a good place.

Edit: I just googled it - apparently it closed in 2012, but their Facebook page is still somehow alive.

Further afield but the Granite brewery at Eglinton and Mount Pleasant is pretty good. I would buy the first round if we can agree on a time.

That's just around the corner from me now.

The back patio in the summer is pure heaven.

Not a great place to watch a hockey game, though...

But I think we could make it work.

I would like to stop and think about the fact than John Tavares is a maple leaf, scored 47 goals last year, and is our 3rd best player. imagine someone told you that 5 years ago?
- BestRapperAlive

2nd best player. But it’s pretty awesome that it’s something to even argue about, who’s better the 47 goal center or the 90 point winger? I think I’d rather complain about heart grit and size though.

For the History Books

(Forwards)

Dave Keon (unbelievable stickhandling skills, tough without taking penalties and was generally the best all around player for four cups for Leafs - was a bit of a sourpuss though)

Frank Mahovlich - ( the big M, a beauty! - heavy shot, game changer) four cups with the Leafs and two more with the Habs

Red Kelly - great Red Wing d-man (6 time 1st team all-star) and 4 cups Became a centre with the Leafs and won four more cups - defended against Beliveau and is possibly the most under-rated Leaf ever.

(Defense)

Tim Horton - considered the toughest Leaf during his time, could score and defend played until his death at age 44. Was only 5'10" but played much bigger Unfortunately only known these days for fast food chain that offers dishwater called coffee and fat pills, was a great player.

Bobby Baun - not a scorer, but tough as nails

Goalie - Johnny Bower (own an original signed copy of Honky the Chrismas Goose)

My formative years favs

Forwards Clark, Gilmour, Sundin, Vaive
D-Men Salming, Turnbull

Now

Forwards Matthews, Marner
D-man - Rielly
