from Mike Brophy of Sportsnet,
What a train wreck!
6-0.
Say it out loud: 6-0.
Unlike the knuckleheads that were satisfied with the Leafs entering yet another rebuilding phase as they try to find a way to win their first Cup since 1967, and now have visions of the playoffs dancing in their delusional heads, I consider the opening game of a season to be a snapshot – not an indicator of what is to come for the next seven months. So even though the Flames were smoked by that offensive juggernaut, the Vancouver Canucks, I feel comfortable in suggesting they will still compete for the Western Conference championship this season.
But holy cow, what the heck was that?

I wasn’t sure how I felt about last night’s game. Then I saw that it was 3-0 after 22 minutes, and I was happy.
The lesson? Apparently I still hate Calgary more than Vancouver. Yay?

Ok, I get the point… but is it necessery to rag on Leaf fans like that?
“Knuckelheads”???
“Delusions”??
I’m sorry, I’m just tired of Leaf fans being put down whenever writers feel like it. The Leafs have nothing to do with the bad start Calgary had, so why include it??

Well, I don’t know what Calgary calls it, but I call it awesome.
