Congratulations Leaf fans, you are going to love this guy after one shift.
He doesn’t just fight for his job, he absolutely loves to drop the gloves & he’s damn good at it.
I’m absolutely pissed as a NYR fan that he was allowed to walk, but I basically anticipated Burke signing him for the past 6 weeks, so the kick I just got to the groin wasn’t as bad as it probably should’ve been.
I officially hate Sather & tortorella!
