I don't hate the Leaf players or their fans ( for the most part 😃 ) . But, since 1970 I've FUCKING HATED the way the CBC/TSN/SN has backed this joke of an organization. THIS is why I want the Leafs and their fucking pathetic cheerleading squad gone... EVERY year.

Luke Schenn is signed through the end of the 22/23 season at $850 per. LS is NOT Bobby Orr, but he's very servicable and he's experienced and tough as nails. Why on earth would we move this guy to anyone? Are we really that desperate for a mid to late round pick?

For those complaining about the Canucks NOT getting an offensively gifted 3rd line center. Barclay Goodrow - TB's 3rd line C. 28 yrs, 93 pts in 331 games. Jason Dickinson - Van's NEW 3rd line C. 26 yrs, 63 pts in 221. Both very similar in size and both effective on the PK.
