If we’re posting quotes ...
As Michael Jackson sang, if I want to make a change in the world, then "I'm starting with the man in the mirror. I'm asking him to change his ways. And no message could have been any clearer. If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself, and then make a change."

"I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world because they'd never expect it."

"One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take
my little nephew to DisneyLand, but instead I drove him to an old
burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said, "DisneyLand burned down." He
cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty
good joke. I started to drive over to the real DisneyLand, but it was
getting pretty late."

Engvall has a point or two in his last 16 games or something like that. might have something to do with it. probably deserved a demotion, although I don't know about Clifford being the guy to move up.

Clifford really earned himself that promotion.

Actual context of that headline -- him talking about why they didn't make a deadline deal...
"Yeah. The balance was, it’s a long-term need for us. We just didn’t see a long-term solution that fit what we were looking for there," Dubas told LeBrun. "On the left side, by and large, we’ve got it fairly set for a number of years. We’ve got Morgan (Rielly) and Jake (Muzzin), we’ve got Travis Dermott, Rasmus Sandin. On the right side, we’ll have Ceci and Barrie that we’ll have decisions on as UFAs. You have (Justin) Holl who we obviously like, he’s had an excellent year. We’re very happy for him. And then you have Dermott who can play there and (Timothy) Liljegren. So maybe this (the injuries to Rielly and Muzzin) was a blessing in disguise, now we get a chance to see what these players can do in increased roles.
"So far so good with Travis and Justin paired together, whether it’s been Martin Marincin or Rasmus with Tyson Barrie, they’ve played well; and now we’ve got Calle Rosen back in the fold as well. Our depth there, we feel it’s been good, and it’s obviously been tested with the three guys out. But there are teams in the league that deal with far worse than us in injuries - Columbus and Pittsburgh, who we’re competing with, most notably. So for us, it’s a great chance to test our depth and really get a stronger measure of where we’re going to be at come the draft."

Shanny on the Leafs:
We're so luck to have a guy thats been through it as a player. That was a Matthews/Marner/Nylander/Rielly that panned out. He knows what it takes to be a Hall of Famer and build a dynasty. He's not going to do anything dumb like trade Marner or Willy because the season was disappointing. He'll get us there.
