Chef is a patriot, Canadian to the bone. I was wanting a Toronto Edmonton finale for a big fuck you to Trump America. Canada is not for sale - Mike Myers.
Nah, we'll always have the 4 Nations win to savour until the Olympics. I'm openly cheering for Dallas - almost half the team is Canadian anyway. I was okay with Winnipeg winning the Cup because it's hard to hate on Winnipeg - they have it hard enough as it is being Winnipeg. Otherwise, if it won't be Vancouver, I don't want any other Canadian city getting the prestige of being the first Canadian club to bring it back.
Fuck Mike Myers and his 'elbows up' schtick. He was yesterday's news 15 years ago. It was cringey when he did it on SNL, and look what it got us? A topic better left to a different thread...

Equally cringey, but more ominous - where 'elbows up' is cringey but lame - the definition of slackivistic virtue-signaling that talks a good game but does nothing concrete. Just post an 'elbows up' meme, vote for the party that spouts it, and go back to how things have been the last ten years.
Stepping off the soap box, and looking at Creeper's Bar & Grill.

“Equally”
Yeah, you lost me there, bro. Nothing equals Gretzky sucking on MAGA’s tit, but I’ll leave it at that. But what’s worse is, not wearing team Canada’s jersey at the 4-Nations cup puck drop and fist pumping the American players while walking out on the ice was grounds for removing his citizenship. If there was a time for Gretzky to show his colours it was them, but no.

Gretz became a nominal Canadian when he couldn't star for them. The 4-Nations embarrassment was just him spinelessly showing whose side he's on - where his money is.

To be fair, Trudeau was our PM at the time, and all things being equal, any sane Canadian would be happy to jump ship when the country they are proud to have been born in went ahead and elected that ass hat for a 3rd term.....the insanity of this nation was signed and sealed when they put many of the same officials back in power last month. Trump may be a blowhard, but at least he's leading a country that isn't heading into the cellar at breakneck speed.

Yep. It's already in the cellar.
Imagine if JT spent his time/energy going after Hollywood stars and Muscians. The Right would lose their shit, justifiably so.
Instead they stay quiet down there and let this shit show go on. I'm becoming normalized by the idiocy of the Orange Man. Enraged by the Republicans letting him get away with this shit.

That's debatable.
I think I’ll stay out of this one

Dochenfreude: when one derives a sense of pleasure, or malicious enjoyment, from the failure and misery being experienced by the Toronto Maple leaves and/or their fans.

'rana has $25 mil available in cap space. They are going to piss all over free agency like a puppy with 2 peckers.
May I recommend Boeser at $9.5x7?
Or, maybe, just maybe re-up Marner and Tavares at $12.5 each. They lose because they are not top heavy enough. Run with that, you Eastern media ball lickers at TSN.

They'll probably sell it by framing it as replacing expensive 'No-Show' Marner, with a relatively cheaper 'clutch-scorer' in Boeser.
That said, I think they'll go hard after Bennett if Florida lets him walk. He screams the type of player fans have been clamouring for since forever. Hell, they may go after both.
Toronto's will piss money looking for a heart. Watch them blow it all on 'heart & Soul' 'Playoff Warrior' types while continuing to cheap out in net.
The fact they think they can win with the likes of Stollarz is almost as laughable as Edmonton thinking they can win it all with Skinner.
