Since it's going to be a slow morning, let's really get into this:

What should the new goal song be?

For me, it has to be a Toronto band.

So my first two proposals would be something from Rush or Rough Trade.

Preferably Rough Trade, because it would hopefully be inappropriate.

Or how about Conductin' Thangs by Maestro Fresh Wes?

I like how the lyrics kinda sorta mesh with scoring a goal.

since he was drafted out of the CHL/OHL, he has to play Jrs if he is not making the NHL, AHL is not an option until 2025.

Habs are in a similar situation with Owen Beck, he is 19, last year where it is either OHL or NHL for him.

Looks like the exception is Shane Wright because he had exceptional status as a 16yrs old entering the OHL.

It would really drive program sales, as people would want to know the lyrics.







Do I need to explain what programs are to the kids on here?

They need to alter the CBA so that all 1st round picks can play in the AHL.

Simple, easy solution - so of course they won't do it.

This again eh?

Ok ill play

Money city maniacs by sloan. It opens with goal horns anyway. They can cut it to have it pick up the beat earlier.
Or Laces out by USS.
But i agree, it should be a local band.

Well the rule is only there so CHL teams don't lose all their good young players to the AHL and keep making money while also planning to compete for the Memorial Cup.

I honestly don't think it would be that bad if they changed it but that's how they justify it.

Why would they?

The CHL is a for-profit entity, where franchises make millions of dollars with free labour.

Why allow kids to play for $100,000 when you can get them to play for free?

Is the size of their bagels a problem?

Half a bagel isn't enough but over 600 calories to start the day if you eat the whole thing is just too much.

Like the swallows returning to Capistrano, I always love Leafs Nation's annual over-hyping of a rookie based upon hopes, dreams and one game.

Quick question: is Cowan as good as Nick Robertson was at this point in his career?

As good as Bracco was after his first pre-season game?

As good as Sandin?

I'm not typing this to be a douchebag.

I'm typing this because every year we set unrealistic expectations, and run these kids out of town when they don't score four goals in their first game (with one exception, of course).

Breathe people, just breathe.

someone cut the cheese
someone light a few matches so we can all breath again

It’s not the CBA. It’s a formal agreement between the NHL and CHL and it was recently extended until 2029, so…..

I like the idea behind Money City Maniacs, and it has a good vibe for it - it would be great in a hockey commercial - but it doesn't have the singalong portion you need.

I've said it before, the chorus part of Stadium Love by Metric is perfect for, well, stadium love.

Beer and bbq have been done, anything Buffalo is simply not worth talking about and costco...well i dont believe weve dedicated time to that.
The story of why the hot dogs remain so cheap is somewhat interesting.

But its new leafs year, gotta chat about the goal song.
Im starting to favour Laces Out by USS.

I'll tell you exactly what the problem is:

They sell bagels as "2 bags for $X.XX"

So every single franking time I go to Costco, the idiot in front of me only has one bag, so they have to send a Costo employee to the back of the store to grab the idiot another bag.

And just to really set me off, the cashier will ask, "What kind do you want?" and the idiot, rather than saying "I don't care, I'm holding up the entire line because I'm a douchebag, so please just grab whatever and I'll be grateful", instead will ponder the question for a minute.

If you need me, I'll be typing my manifesto.

I don't have a Costco membership, but me and Mz Z are thinking about it, because I am like a flock of locusts decimating the fields. I should be getting things in food service quantities.
