Hockey is the name of the game.

Mark Schiefle should never wear the maple leaf in a best on best. Guy just half assed a bronze medal game. Like I get it's not THE tournament but at least act like you care... Should have had Martone out with Celebrini. Can't wait to see what @jpolly22 has to say about that one.

@PapiLeafs34 @AdamWylde @sdpnsports You've never been to the Hammer eh?

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@chloewojj Even as a leafs fan I was willing to jump on the sabers bandwagon after the anthem stuff. But you watch your god damn tone with this shit.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

Nothing about the NHL draft lottery system makes any sense. Leafs finished fifth last and somehow have better odds to drop a spot than stay in their current position...

On Steve Simmons...

I have no issue with the premise of his question, asked cordially.

For example:

"Based on my research, it seems John Chayka's a polarizing figure around the league. In fact, most of the people I talked to were surprised by your decision to hire him. Can you elaborate on your due diligence process and share your perspective on the incidents which led to punishment from the league?"

I mean, that's a heater as written.

I have an issue with calling John Chayka a liar and a con man, as corroborated by 19 of 20 anonymous sources.

I have an issue with an experienced journalist hijacking the press conference, turning it into a spectacle about an uncommonly explosive question. Especially in this setting. I think it's a disservice to the staff and the fan base.

The biggest issue I have, though, is that he directed the question to Keith Pelley. John Chayka is sitting right next to him. If you want to call the guy a liar and a con man, at least have the courtesy to say it to him directly.

The problem is... it's a lot like when a Karen starts an argument with an employee at a Best Buy. Karen has no obligation to conduct herself in any particular way - she's free to fly off the handle. The employees are wearing a uniform. There are customers in the store. They don't have the same luxury. It's a gutless exchange.

Par for the course from Steve Simmons.

@MarkLazerus Ah another "The Last Jedi" truther. Keep fighting the correct fight good sir!

@DestinLegarie The Lord of the Rings trilogy...

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@GunOwnersofCana Remember when the ducks fans boo'd the Canadian anthem at the start of their series?... Amazing how short minded people are.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@BeardedKind It's almost like most Canadians don't like being treated like a punching bag by our closest neighbour and "ally"... Crazy concept eh?

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@MichelleLA1981 Shut up and sit down Karen. We boo'd because the oompa loompa in office is treating our entire country like a punching bag. Before him we gladly sang the anthem north of the border if there was technical issues. Take off your orange tinted glasses please and thank you.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@ezralevant I'll continue to be elbows up until the orange turd is gone. But I can still applaud this for great sportsmanship.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@mapleblooded Americans could learn something about not threatening friendly neighbors, honouring mutually beneficial trade deals they themselves called "the best deal ever signed" and thinking about the repercussions of the leaders words...

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@FloridaManV @DuaneS39 1) I'm SHOCKED it took this long for a walnut like yourself to find this and comment something like this and 2) we aren't booing your service members and veterans, we're booing the oompa loompa fucking the world sideways from the Whitehouse.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

Look I've been apprehensive about America as a whole the last year or so (like most Canadians) but @DuaneS39 people down in Buffalo are a good bunch. Fully jumping on the Buffalo wagon for these playoffs just because of this! #letsgobuffalo

[Spittin' Chiclets @spittinchiclets]

The mic cut out during O Canada, and the Buffalo crowd didn’t miss a beat 🇨🇦

[Glenn Tunes @glenn_tunes]

So MAGA belives that Americas taxes is funding Europe 🙄 you guys belive we have free healthcare and education here in Norway because you pay for it 🤦🙄🤡 FUCK ME SIDEWAYS 🤦 the stupidity in America today is 🤡 WoW 😬

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@KPBails @joeyferg You mean exactly what people are doing with Dangle?...

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@LeafsPapi_ Lol dude making a living trying to connect with a fan base he was conditioned to hate... Fans like you are why everyone else hates us leafs fans. Relax and go have a beer.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@TheCinesthetic I'd say the same about the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven. Gave a lot more to the story and substance to the movie as a whole.

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

I've given up hope this book ever comes out... I've also accepted he has no idea how to finish anything.

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

George RR Martin last year said he only had hundreds of pages to go on The Winds of Winter:

"I have like 1,100 pages written but I still have hundreds more pages to go. It’s a big mother of a book for whatever reason. Maybe I should’ve started writing smaller books when I began this but it’s tough. That’s the main thing that dominates most of my working life."

How can he still have hundreds of pages to go after 12 years?

[Maxx Duda @tmlduda4]

@MapleLeafs @LGCanada Joe deserves better for his last season... So sad to see an absolutely LEGENDARY broadcast career end on such a down note...
