In LA? No, only some casual hockey fans, other than a few of the guys I play with in the street hockey leagues, most of whom hate the Leafs.You don't actually interact with Leafs fans in real life much, do you?
This board is kind of an island, IMO.
Not everyone is educated with analytics, xgf, and Zeke....run of the mill fans think big hits=good defence and define toughness in stupid ways and overvalue said toughness.Yes. Everyone I talk to about the Leafs in real life, tbh.
People think I'm crazy. Schenn, Bogosian, Boosh - they liked all of em.
They go boom and the average fan loves that shit.

You kidding?This is where you tell us that you lead the league in PIM, right.....

gotta protect the nifty mittensYou kidding?
I can't risk the sweet scoring touch in these hands by pounding them against helmets.
I never figured you to be one of those blue line truthersThat Lafreniere goal the other night is an excellent example. Boosh chases a hit, then hits his return to home button and heads for the left post despite not a single Ranger jersey withing 30 feet of it, stands there until getting caught in no mans land and screens his goalie on a 40 foot wrist shot.
Somehow not widely considered to be at fault because he, I don't fucking know, denied the blueline or some shit.
