In general its a goal song that the players didnt really seem to like based on their reaction and was probs going anyways. The complaints that they got from other people "cant always assume they just be leafs fans" would make any team reconsider.

Remember when Van fans or Philly fans complained about their goal songs and they got changed. The song was fine just didnt feel like a goal song.

They be testing stuff out rn and it was clear Pursuit of Happiness wasnt favoured. Still wonder what the other 3 themes are.

To me going the FLA, BUF, or WSH direction where you let the players pick their own songs should be the modern way but it is what it is.


IMO a single great goal song is still the best option. Hawks experimented with mixing up goal songs and individualizing them around 2008(?) before it became clear Chelsea Dagger drew a far better reaction from the crowd. I've started to warm up more to the individual goal songs as on option, but only if the alternative is something mediocre. The Hawks could be losing 5-0 with only 16,000 in the crowd last year but the UC would still explode when Chelsea Dagger eventually played

Yes, I know it's not EVERY TML fan... but seriously, folks, that team's base is an absolute clown show. That franchise may never win a Cup again, if only because they exist in such a toxic fishbowl.

Yikes Dach tore his ACL and MCL.

Feel bad for the guy, think he was primed for a big year.

Reaves signing got way more hate than it should have.

I wouldn't be shocked if he became a fan favorite by mid season.

I thought Marc Methot had the correct take on the Topic: https://x.com/MarcMethot3/status/1713660612746567973?s=20

"I’m tired of debating this topic with people who have never stepped foot in a locker room. The players get it.

To be clear, I wasn’t even close to being a tough guy and I’ve always appreciated analytics. However, I understood the value it brought to a team. You can’t quantify it with numbers and charts.

Sure, his CF% or whatever isn’t good. But how do Matthews and Marner feel about it? To me, that’s all that matters."


I think it's just a topic fans are naturally ignorant of, because they are not in the locker room, not playing for the team.

Simmonds was just washed when he got to the leafs unfortunately his body has been put through so much physical beating, especially towards the end, if they caught him a year or two earlier he would've been adored

Actually funny enough Simmonds was good for us right at the beginning then he got hurt came back and was meh. Then the following year same thing

Final year it was like okay just hang around and stuff

But yea he looked like he was gonna fit well on the PP and stuff and I think had 3 goals in 2 games or something then yea **** hit the fan lul

They are somehow even worse in person than they were on TV against Pittsburgh. Kuemper left to die on a desert island while the team in front of him couldn't clear a whiteboard.

When the Caps failed to score in OT on the powerplay with two minutes left I yelled more obscenities in a row than I ever have in my life

Then they won in the shootout lol
