*REAL* Scotch drinkers - what is best (not necessarily most expensive) bottle of Scotch at the LCBO for under $200?
English
@NHLRumourReport Probably because there is no other team dumb enough to trade their first round pick plus a top prospect for a RD who doesn’t have any dog in them.

Elliotte Friedman: I've heard Boston has come up a lot in Toronto this year; and how they came back so quickly, and they're saying how can we do that too; the organization looks at it like if they can do it, why can't we - 32 Thoughts (4/3)

@sarobertsonca I know one of her constituents likely wrote her a letter already showing their concern in not so many kind words about her decision.
English
Reporter: You're telling us [your constituents] want this. I just don't buy it
Marilyn Gladu: I've been listening to my constituents since last summer ... it's going to be good for their riding. It's going to be good for the country and it's good for me personally as well.

They wrote us off. We flipped the script.

@KwnStorm Pick the player and move along. If there are any thoughts of trading to improve. Just YouTube the last 15 years and that’s probably still the peak that they will ever hope to achieve. It is decisions like this that has the team in the spot that they are…… draft develop period

This is unbelievable - and whoever this executive is sending out the "superfecta" complaint, it's gone out to presumably everyone in Toronto media. I've heard this on multiple podcasts.
It was ridiculous enough that the Toronto Maple Leafs had to outsource their executive search - if there's any organization in the league who should be equipped to handle this internally, it's the Leafs.
Now this. It's just one thing after another.

Text message from a current #NHL executive re: #LeafsForever hiring Neil Glasberg to conduct search: "1. Get paid to run search. 2. Search hires your client as GM (get paid again) 3. Client hires another client as HC (get paid again) The only question is if Neil can hit a superfecta: search, client as president, client as GM, and client as head coach."
English
@ballards_legacy The firm helping with the search also represents executives and coaches.

If you are looking for the final score, you can just google the year when the Leafs last won the Stanley Cup.

@jkenney So you agree Trump and his administration did the right thing? Is your TDS getting better, I thought the condition is not curable.
English
This is the way.
Canada must stop allowing the supporters of terror and tyranny to mock our country, its values, and our immigration system.

Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living lavishly in the United States. Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan." This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States. The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.

@mikepell33 @owen_ritzie @torontobaghead Only hire id seriously hand in my fan card would be JFJ 2.0.
English
@owen_ritzie @torontobaghead These people are afraid of girls man. They’ll tell you that the women (even one of the best to ever do it) don’t understand the game. But celebrated Treliving after seeing what he did with Calgary??
English
The only thing more embarrassing than this was his presser from yesterday.
Pelley should stay out of this and let a group of hockey guys advise MLSE on which GM to hire.
PS
If he hires Hayley Wickenheiser, I’m officially done with the #LeafsForever.

Just realized that Keith’s glasses perfectly colour coordinate with the backdrop he speaks in from of 🤓

@gator_gum Gotta be Mario. Even the annoying head nod when he’s showing other videos like he’s making a point. Ffs.

Which of the RW Influencers/Grifters/Misinformation Accounts do you find the most ridiculously laughable?
I'm going to compile a list and run a poll of the top selections.
I've got: (in no particular order)
Ryan Gerritsen
Marc Nixon
The Pleb
Misinformation Mario

Who are we missing?
English
@markhmasters @TSN_Sports He forgot to add ‘Keith Pelley told me to tell everyone’
English
Leafs coach Craig Berube spoke with MLSE president & CEO Keith Pelley today
"I've talked to him in the past two years a lot ... He knows what he’s doing. He knows how to build things so we should have a lot of confidence in what he’s going to do going forward"
@TSN_Sports
English
@JeffMarek Well he did such a great job in Arizona, why wouldn’t he get a look
English
Another name to consider based on what Keith Pelley was talking about yesterday - John Chayka.
English
@MeghanChayka @HockeyAnalytics The best GM would blend the benefits of both. Being a strong leader is not being the smartest person in the room but surrounding yourself with the smartest people. Hayley Wickenheiser could be that person.
English
I have never been texted a quote more.
I think that if a Leafs GM re-imagined a hockey ops department with the current state of technology, it would bring massive improvements.
There’s so much clunky legacy tech that should be re-built into way better work flows.
Chris Johnston@reporterchris
Keith Pelley says he's open to the possibility of hiring both a president and GM for the revamped #leafs front office. Says there's one must for their next hire: "They have to be data centric."
