the same with Ikea.

They keep you captive in the store longer because you won't leave to get food, and then you buy more furniture made out of cardboard. Don't get me wrong though, I (frank)ing love IKEA.

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?

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.

- Atomic Wedgie



It has to be Working Man from the 1st Rush album.. right ….

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.

Neighbours have two young boys.

I've been telling them for years they need a Costco membership.

They finally went last weekend - were so overwhelmed by it all, they ended up buying a chest freezer while they were there - to store all the meat they bought.

That's basically the plan, including the freezer. (frank) I love freezers.

How come I never knew about the glory that is garment steamers? I tried one recently. I hate ironing, and I (frank)ing love (frank)ing garment steamers. I steamed shirts for the joy of it. I've been dressing up unnecessarily in order to then use the steamer more. I'm getting excited about steaming shirts later today.

No Rush, and no more Tragically Hip on hockey broadcasts than we already have. That's one of my rules.

It's going to be Blinding Lights by the Douchend

Toronto Boy, number 1 hit, is fresh and new for young fans, works for a 20 second clip. The lights come on when they score and the opponents are blinded by it.

Writes itself.

Right?! I can seriously stand there and steam shirts for the satisfaction of it, basically indefinitely.

Its one pre season game, i doubt he gets a full time role with the leafs this year. Maybe hes brought up to the marlies in 2024.

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.

You are the king of undervaluing leafs prospects

Zero chance Knies can play well in the postseason last year eh Wedgie?

They aren't going to go with any song that isn't going to be loved by the 30ish and under crowd.

Drake would make sense. Not sure what song though.

I'm going to lock in Blinding Lights. Drake is the Raptors. Bieber's songs suck or don't have any relevancy to a goal song. Keep it local and big. Seems like a marketing move.

There are 9 people under 30 at every Leafs game.

They need to appeal to Generation X.

Yeah if I were a betting man that would be a good one to throw money on.

I just think they go with a little more amped up kinda song, with the direction they are heading with this team.

Let's get back to my proposal from a few years ago:

Ask for Bieber to write a Leafs goal song.

This is something the NHL is actively trying to fix. They want the younger generation to get into the sport
