Yes, the ghost of Ballard has now found his way from Maple Leaf Gardens to the ACC. In case you haven’t been following, the Toronto Make Me Laughs Maple Leafs have failed to gain entry into the NHL postseason. This is just a bit of balance considering the utter collapse of the Canucks and their failure to make said dance.
After leaving Maple Leaf Gardens, the Leafs enjoyed a highly unnatural propensity toward actually winning hockey matches. This was in high contrast to the Leafs I grew up with, losing frequently, missing the playoffs, and playing a lot of golf. Maybe the 80’s led to the country club atmosphere of Leaf hockey.
Well, all that winning came crashing to a hault this season, as the Leafs missed the postseason for the first time under head coach Pat Quinn. Ballard’s ghost haunts the Leafs once more. And guess what?
Though by reading the Leafs version of the story, it just looks like they put a horse out to pasture. Once again, the country club atmosphere of the Toronto faithful. How strong is The Passion That Unites [them] All anyway? Well, the Blue Jays should recieve increased attendence as a result.
As for me, I just wish I had some coin to go back to Toronto, just to stir the pot.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That is all.
