Around the League 2019-2024 Edition

Apparently he was a Kings fan. But he's also called himself a secret Leafs fan and said all southwestern Ontario guys secretly want to play for the Leafs.

So sure, bring him in. Do something. This season is painful.

Personally, I think those comments were almost entirely self-serving bullshit, and also partly a troll job.

Just another example of the classic move we see when a star player from southern Ontario is approaching free agency and looking to secure their last big long-term retirement contract from their current team.

Just float some BS about how you’ve always been a Leaf fan at heart and how fun it’d be to play at “home”, and most often you’re able to scare your current team into backing up the brinks truck.

Also really not a fan at all of the idea of picking up the ass-end of that contract now after he’s already given all of his best years to LA.

Instagram models, michelin stars, and wearing a t shirt in January?

Yep. Basically the same pull that worked with LOF

Spending your early 20s in Columbus and Winnipeg helps you value what’s important in life.

Wheat?

Too much emotion for the Isles to handle… Habs jump to a quick 3-0 lead

Hope they win 9-1

…and Roy refuses to pull his goalie and leaves him in for all those goals.

I loved Roy. That was a player, a true winner. This was before Frenemy singlehandedly made me hate the franchise because of his obnoxious stupidity.

Oooh, interesting drama.

Do you hate Roy because of how he departed, rather than love him for the stuff he did before that?

 

[Slinger 48]

Fuck Roy.

Never liked that prick.

Most things aren’t so black and white.

I loved cheering for him … while recognising that’s he’s not the most even keeled dude out there. One of the great Habs.

Not gonna hate him because he didn’t get along with a B level coach

Hope he does well with the Isles.

A red card signifies a player's dismissal from the match. It is issued for serious offenses, violent conduct, dangerous play, and any action that brings the game into disrepute.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Well ive been informed and shamed at the same time.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

The shaming you're used to.

 

[Habsy]

Fuck Roy.

Never liked that prick.

Love the prick.
