You guys doxxed a journeyman player's family. That's embarrassing

Football is the most popular sport in the world. LOL.

Even in Southern Ontario/GTA, the two fastest growing sports are football (ie. soccer) and basketball.

Why? It’s cheaper and it’s purely based on skill. There’s no unwritten rule BS in either sport. You come, you play…

Hockey and baseball meanwhile still thinking like the Soviet Union still exists. Crying about bat flips and “answering the bell”.

PS: Ain’t called Saakar either.

A somewhat well written argument riddled with inaccuracy

Both Soccer and Basketball are growing in the GTA but they are NOT the two fastest growing sport.

Soccer have a looooooooooooooooooooooong list of what you call BS unwritten rule. I am not about to make an exhaustive list but there dozens of the like:
-If you score a goal against a former team where you played for a while, you never celebrate.
-If you score against your own country (dual citizenship) you also never celebrate
-If you score a goal, you need to go further away from the goal to celebrate
-If your team have a lead late in game the referee will have a hard time let you waist time, aka game management.
-If you commit a foul in the first 10 minutes, you rarely gonna receive a card for it.
-The referee literally decide when the game over
-A lot of people will say that kissing your team logo is a D move, especially if you are new to the team.
-A lot of people will say its perfectly honorable to do so.
-As a goalie, you never say a god damn thing about another goalie performance.
-If a guy having a great game, or its his last one with a club, you have to bring him out before the end so he can get his ovation
-Post game you are expected to accept another player sweaty jersey and smile about it.
-Don't f***ing celebrate the 8ish goal in qualification against Thailand, USA!
-If you get fouled, you need to rollover at the very least 3 time more than the physic would have dictated, you also need to put your hand in your face regardless where you get injured.

Live look at Laine's family waiting for an update on his condition.

 

[behemolari]

The question was, which is the most popular sport in the world, which I answered.

So yea it would matter in this case.

most popular sport in the world must be laughing for Leafs at their annual first round exit

 

[Breakers]

How have they not announced the severity by now?

LMAO!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

So what’s the injury?

 

[Golden_Jet]

So what’s the injury?

No one knows yet, I’d say some grade of MCL , hopefully not ACL.

 

[PaulD]

Settle down there. We don’t want you to get so upset you start pulling our hair

Ha! Not upset. Feel bad for Laine but like a lot of hab fans I wasn't particularly high on the deal. Reminded me of the Drouin deal. And knew we were getting an injury prone player. So it wasnt all that surprising either.
Habs aren't making play offs with or without Laine.

He's the guy with 50 million in the bank from being good at hockey. You should probably ask him.

At least they didn't call the cops like on Chara.

Unserious question, and you're not looking for a rational response.

But just in case, I think it's because those two scenarios are completely different.

Yes I agree they are completely different situations.

Toronto lost their captain and #2c during the playoffs.

Montreal lost someone they acquired as a cap dump. And it was during the preseason.

Seems strange that Montreal fans are upset at Toronto.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Never like seeing a player get hurt but the one thing this did is give the Leafs/Habs rivalry some real juice. Opening night should be a doozy.

 

[Joe n]

I wasn’t sure which was right,

I found 3-4 sites that listed most popular sports in the World

1) Soccer (football) 3.5 billion fans
2) cricket 2.5 billion fans
3) hockey 2 billion fans (includes ice and field)

In the GTA it's cricket and pickleball.

It's over, but for you it never really began...

Can you imagine the uproar, if this was an AHL player, doing this to Marner?? Matthews??
LOL

Remember when the head of the police force having to send out a public notification to tell fans to stop calling 9-11 on chara.

It's a penalty for sure but It's not a blatant knee on knee.

Maybe he should have got out of the way. For fear that he might have run into Laine.
