Aw, that's sad.....glad I was able to cheer him one last time a few weeks ago.

what a memory that must have been

Thank you for everything King, by all accounts you were a better human being than you were a hockey player, and you are one of the greatest to ever play the game. I am truly saddened and please RIP

So quick and devastating. RIP B.Salming.

Forever a legend, RIP Borje


One of the greatest to ever play the game, on and off the ice

Johnny, Chief, now Borje. It has been a tough few years for this franchise.

So, so glad that he got the chance to experience the love from our fan base one last time.

RIP.

 

[Confucius]

So quick from just a few weeks ago. Playing with the all time greats now.

 

[WillyC]

We were so lucky to have him in Toronto… the recent tribute was very emotional and now it’s forever.

21 will always be remembered by the blue and white

RIP Borje

You will be missed, but never forgotten.

What an honour and privilege it was to watch "The King" play for my beloved Maple Leafs.

 

[colchar]

Terrible news, but he got to feel the love of Leafs Nation one last time.

Those of us who saw him play understand why he is so beloved. Those who didn't get to see him play have no idea the greatness that you missed.

God love you Borje.

I know I do.

GLG.

 

[Burnie97]

Hopefully they find a cure for that awful disease. Brave on and off the ice. Condolences to his family. Like many have said... its really nice he was able to be there one last time and he had the ovation he deserved. RIP Borje.

what a memory that must have been

It was pretty sad, must admit.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Damn, life goes quick right before your eyes. I'm glad he got the final standing ovation.

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Nooooooooooo my childhood hero is gone. Im sooooo sad.
Something big has to be done for him.

Was a pleasure & priviledge to watch him play, such a natural, sad to hear.

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Wow that is really sad and surprising. He was walking around a few weeks ago so I figured the ALS hadn't progressed too far yet.

RIP, glad he had a good send off

 

[Kanu]

This is really sad news. There's some consolation in seeing his tribute a few weeks back, but this one's tough.

 

[TMLeafer]

RIP to one of a kind.

 

[KPower]

Very sad day.

Wasn’t expecting this so soon.

RIP to a legend.

 

[crump]

Rip King.

I’ll never forget the excitement and buzz you made as a trailblazer for European players. Your natural gifts and hard work mesmerized me every time I watched you. Fearless in life and your last moments.
