The worst thing about the Boose is the Marlies should (could) have beaten them, if they played a lot less Hollweg and a lot more young talent

Actually the worst thing about the Moose is that their top six scorers have an average age of over 30.

I said “top six scorers” not “a playoff no-show and a goalie who’s no Kieran Millan”.

Dishonest writing pisses me off
even when it’s not directed against the Leafs.
From Scott Burnside :
Only two times in the long history of the NHL has a team come back from a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven playoff series and one of them was in 1942 — 67 years ago. It simply does not happen.
While it is true that it’s only happened twice by saying one of them was 67 years ago implies that it’s been 67 years since it’s happened. Nowhere in the rest of the article does he mention it happened again in 1975, which would have been an interesting point especially considering it was a Pens team that blew a 3-0 lead against the Islanders. I guess 34 years doesn’t have the same ring.

I’ll have to remember this line of logic in my daily life.
“Honey, I only cheated on you twice. It simply does not happen.”
“But you just said it happened twice.”
“Um… you see… according to Scott Burnside …”
