Call it the Hockey Hall of Fame All-Star game, buy a ticket to the game, get into the HHoF. Have Hall of Fame members all over the event as well. Maybe have a Fame member all-star game too.... get Tretiak over here and a few other old Soviet National team guys.

Q - How did Pastrnak do in the skills competition compared to the Leafs players?
A - Of twelve entrants, Matthews finished third, Nylander inished fourth and Pastrnak finished eleventh.
Edit: fixed the order - thought tv said Willy 3 and Matty 4, paper says this.

Marner played for the Coyotes? And it was publicized?

Not surprising at all. I like players that step up when it matters and it doesn’t hurt if they’re a superstar.

What we do in hockey echoes in eternity...
Matthews, Rielly and Bieber showed that they know how to build a team through the draft.
I hope they comprise our future front office.

Yeah don't look now, Pastrnak and the Bruins are starting to have some trouble getting out of the 1st round two years in a row...

Super elite showing by the Leafs this weekend.
Hopefully they can get on a roll the last part of the season.

Yup, and outside of their 2019 run to the cup finals, their playoff record is also pretty mediocre.

Best All-Star weekend in many, many years.
The new standard imo. Great job Toronto and what a time to be a Leaf fan having superstar player(s) and seeing them show out. To those that remember the 80's to have an Auston Matthews on the roster top goalscorer hart trophy it really is a dream. Hopefully the good vibes carry on to playoffs.

We had Wendel Clark in the 80’s…puts any current Leaf to shame

Would love to get blacked out drunk in Toronto one day; but those ticket prices though? ooof.
Need a sugar daddy if I ever want to see the Kings in Toronto.

That was decent. Now let's please get back to a somewhat regular schedule!
Nice strawman attempt. Let me help you with the definition:
straw man fallacy is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction
Feel free to comment on the real topic. The poster argued against my statement which was much or even most of Marners popularity is credited to being a leaf. Depending on what team you compare him to (I chose Coyotes as the biggest extreme).
What's your opinion? I can show you all the articles on players fears of playing in Toronto due to media attention, I can show you Instagram follower numbers, endorsement deals, that prove it's not true if you like.
Or do you prefer to disappear until your next opportunity to make a sarcastic response as your comment history shows you have a propensity of doing?

You are not wrong, but with his trip to SCF, he got more playoff round wins.
and I mean more than Leafs in their history... You can google it, shamefully his 2019 run was winning 3 rounds. Something Toronto is yet to see.
mad googling skills though

St. Louis Blues have been more successful than the Bruins in the past decade.
This isn’t even true. The Leafs have been around a long time and the playoff format has changed many times.You are not wrong, but with his trip to SCF, he got more playoff round wins.

Toronto won 3 rounds in 1932 to win the cup.
If you are going to mockingly tell someone to google something maybe you should first to make sure it’s true.

Obviously from a pure talent standpoint no, but I would take a prime Wendel Clark any day of the week. I don’t want to upset the snowflakes though, Wendel was too violent I guess

Pasta was just poking fun in a playful way. Who cares? He is best friends with Nylander, FFS. It's not to be taken seriously.

Even the great Dave Keon would probably disagree with you there. Violent or not violent. Skill or not skilled.
Neither of them any cups. One is however breaking franchise records and will likely be at the top when all is said and done.
Good for fans that opposition makes these types of comments. Would like it if our core players did it.

I love this kind of banter tbh. If it's not to the media, it's is definitely said on the ice when they are battling
