@DerekWilliamson @WayneKerr67 @OHLHockey It's right in the article. After the other player said he was going to break his shoulder. He said you too much of a pussy to do it.

@DerekWilliamson @adaminkw @SpiritHockey Class when my friends & I got called bitches & losers for purely just watching & cheering for our team at the game? Maybe they should have some class at least we filled three more seats than would have been.

Spirit Nation, you showed up this season and proved the Great Lakes Bay Region IS A HOCKEY REGION ❤️ We heard every chant, cow bell, and “let’s go Spirit” all the way until the end. The best part…. It’s not over 😉 we’ll see you in a few short weeks at the Memorial Cup.

@Coastaku @adaminkw @SpiritHockey They are, but they're what, 35 years into the league now? Wasn't always a sell out... struggled for many, many years. Plus the US teams are at another disadvantage in that it's the Ontario Hockey League... it's not well known down there.

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 Congrats on talking yourself in a complete circle. Already said why the Leafs objectively have the worst fan base. You doubled down on how much money they make, which only supports this idea of a sense of entitlement. It's a trash fan base.

@DerekWilliamson @BodogCA @Marner93 Yes, you claim the Leafs have terrible fan base despite the on ice product being sub par for decades. Fans like winners, fans don’t like 0-7 in Game 7’s when probability wise that’s almost impossible to accomplish. Your boy Mitch was even hot dogging it on the winning goal lol

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 Revenue share doesn't mean the receiving teams are not profitable. The bottom 2/3 gets share, but most are still profitable (or they wouldn't keep operating) Plus, this was originally about attendance and the fanbases. Not sure how you pulled us this far off track here.

@DerekWilliamson @BodogCA @Marner93 They are supported by the Leafs. It’s called revenue sharing. Heck, the Carolina owner is so cheap he doesn’t even want to pay his top notch head coach fair value. You picked the wrong one to talk hockey with clearly lol

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 Many factors go into franchise value. Doesn't mean they're not profitable, and definitely doesn't mean they're "supported by the Leafs". Way off topic anyway.

@D_Caruso @theScore I think two things can be true. The combination of players right now isn't working, for many reasons. It is no one players fault for the failing... and that kind of thinking is why the Leafs keep losing. Look at all the "problems" they've traded away...who go on to be studs.

@DerekWilliamson @theScore Dude I get it, you’re a leaf fan. You be-leaf but you cannot do the same thing every year with the same core and keep failing and keep expecting different results next year. Marner has 11 goals in 57 career playoff games. When is enough enough ?

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 That's just incorrect. Carolina and Nashville are consistently top 5 in the league for attendance. They're doing fine. And players talk about how much better it is to play in a market where the fans don't turn on you (or threaten you) after a couple mistakes.

@DerekWilliamson @BodogCA @Marner93 You do understand that without the Leafs those American teams you mentioned would have a hard time turning a profit right? The Leafs sell out every night despite a bad on ice product for decades. Which team could say the same? But sure blame the fans for guys like Mitch tanking.

@D_Caruso @theScore Sure, but he's in that conversation every year. Guy blocks shots, creates plays, kills penalties and logs more minutes than almost every player... and fans still don't notice him? Almost like they just want to hate on someone.

@DerekWilliamson @theScore He was nominated for the Selke one year lol not every year. He is not worth 12mil especially when he vanishes every single year in the playoffs

@D_Caruso @theScore Wasn't his assignment. 44 was right there.... that's a clear switch, as MM has to cover the second threat coming in right behind.

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 That doesn't mean anything? Leafs got to tickets first... Okay, and? Look at the energy that's been in their building during the playoffs. You can barely hear anything it's so loud, orange blanketing the rink. Leafs games were quiet as shit.

@FilipeMaxwell1 @BodogCA @Marner93 That's exactly the problem. Real fans support their team, and cheer them on when they need a boost - they don't just sit back and wait to be entertained. Watch an Oilers, Canes, or even a Preds game... it's night and day. TO has the most entitled, whiny fanbase.

@DerekWilliamson @BodogCA @Marner93 Well what would you like the fans to do? They constantly underachieve in the playoffs. You have to give the people a reason to cheer lol
