It's really nothing personal towards Matthews. And I do understand the annoyance. Not with the Leafs. It's LeafNation media. Argh! I just don't need to hear the same story from Dave Poulin, Jeff Marek, Jeff O'Neill, Don Cherry, Ray Ferraro, Pierre McGuire, Bob Cole, Jamie McLennan, Kelly Hrudey, Martin Biron, Steve Simmons, Glen Healy, Craig Button, Doug MacLean, Bob McKenzie, Darren Dreger, Pierre LeBrun, James Duthie, Nick Kypreos, John Buccigross, Gord Miller, Darren Pang, Elliott Friedman &/or Damian Cox 4,000 times a day!
It would be like you going to a coffee shop. There's 3 Leafer fans woot wooting about Matthews. You chime on on how exciting Laine is & they respond with, "Who? Yeah, whatever!"
Lost in this conversation is Travis Konecny (PHI) & Devin Shore (DAL). And it's lost & buried under the sheer weight of the Big 3 in media Leaf land. Both are a point up on Marner but you'll never hear about that!
So even though the Leafs are down & we should have class, it's difficult to. And it's not the orgs fault nor the fans. It's that media
GO HABS GO!
