On this day of romance and smooching, let’s reach out to out fellow members of Leafs nation and share the love around a little – because if we’re being honest, OLAS isn’t going to be calling you today. I know this because I have him locked in a cupboard in my flat. Don’t worry, he’ll be allowed out for the game later on. But if he isn’t back by curfew… well. Just remember my people gave you guys your independence and we can take it back again whenever we see fit.
