It's always better when the communications drives the policy.
- Atomic Wedgie


A lot of it was driven by statistics. (frank)ing analytics. Deb Matthews was a statistician and being able to track and report on progress was huge. It actually drove the comms guys crazy.

Better, but they also got flack for their poop tier defensive game and were run out of multiple towns.

To be fair to Barrie, Leafs fans run about 80% of Leafs players out of town

When my brother and I were at Leafs games, we used to scream "Larry Alert! Larry Alert!" whenever Murphy touched the puck.

I feel shame.

You ran Lupul out of town?

Did you drag a bag of cocaine behind an ambulance?

This was the Libs. The Tories were eye test guys. They’d drive around Forest Hill, look for poor people and feel good about another job well done.

He’s going to have to pretty seriously underperform for that to happen. He’s going to be one of the top players in the league and Leaf fans are going to be very happy because they are reasonable, thoughtful people.

So if I'm doing the math right, the AHL has 4 Canadian teams:

Marlies
Belleville Senators
Laval Rocket
Manitoba Moose

Do you make them their own division? Their own league? Or move them to the US for a year?

Forget an AHL league. Set up a series of tournaments in various bubble sites. Don’t get trapped into travel. It’s one thing for guys making big bucks but not these guys who also can’t afford to show a bad attitude by saying no
