Sure, the #Leafs have played a little better over the last week, but they are just 5 points ahead of the last-place team. #LeafsNation

I just looked up the phrase "supreme sycophant," and it spit out Gianni Infantino.

Trump wins his peace prize from Fifa – any chance of a VAR review?
At a gaudy and gauche World Cup draw, Gianni Infantino went all out to flatter the world’s most precious ego

It's a tragic irony that the #Zionist regime that runs #Israel laughs at the #US regime's amateur-hour, cowardly murder of several dozen fishermen of the coast of #Venezuela. Zionists accomplish far more murder in #Palestine daily.

Not sure what it might cost for the #Leafs to land RW Alex #Tuch from the #Sabres, but I sure hope #Treliving has made a call. Tuch would look good on the right side with #Matthews and #Knies.

Hey @jtbourne.bsky.social. Caught your K&B #Leafs hour. It's obvious to my eye that the last two Leafs wins were DESPITE their disjointed play. Despite Craig Berube. The only thing that was improved was their energy (& Joseph #Woll stopping pucks). Chip'n'chase & dumping pucks into a void?
No.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.

They are lying to us.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

It was just a few weeks ago that the head of the Washington-based crime family, Don #Narcoleptic, met fellow lawbreaking strongman #Putin to discuss how to steal and keep Ukrainian land.

The narcoleptic gaseous emissions chief continues to prove his unfitness for public office.

If #Leafs bench boss Craig Berube is smart and savvy, he'll leave the #Roy, #McMann and #Joshua line together for an extended period. They need playing time to really gel.

I have to completely disagree. Skating, energy and solid goaltending from the #Leafs, granted, in a game against a team missing SEVEN regulars, including #Barkov and #Tkachuk. But dump and chase and flipping pucks out is ugly hockey. @mirtle.bsky.social
Leafs best win of the season. Complete effort and great performances up and down the lineup.

They're not planning the parade yet, but the #Leafs have won two in a row and outscored their opponents 11-3. Toronto's style is dump and chase and scoring from scrambles. But it's worked for six periods. On to Carolina to wrap up the road trip on Thursday.

Clever little move by the #Panthers Samoskevich, drawing an interference penalty on the #Leafs Joshua. Grabs the Leaf and makes it look just the opposite.
December 3, 2025 at 2:40 AM
Incredibly, newcomer waiver pickup Troy #Stetcher is clearly the #Leafs' best D-man, with speed, good clearing and passing, and willing to put pucks to the net.

It's NOT been a very pretty game in Florida, but the #Leafs are skating, creating chances and NOT being out everythinged. 2-0 Buds through 34 minutes.
December 3, 2025 at 1:56 AM
The #Leafs are making good on their limited chances in Florida - two 1st period goals on just four shots, picking up from Pittsburgh where they scored seven on just 18 shots. Still, lotsa Leafs just flipping the puck out and battling along the boards. It ain't pretty, but...

Two Canadian-based #NHL teams were deprived of skate-sharpeners this season - the Winnipeg #Jets and Toronto Maple #Leafs. Sl-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-w.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

I'm shocked that @jtbourne.bsky.social is shocked that Morgan #Rielly is a defensive sieve. He has been one since he was in junior and drafted in the first round by Brian #Burke. Also, he's the common thread in the #Leafs 12-season failure to come even close to a Cup.
December 1, 2025 at 11:49 PM
In the new, fascist #USA, the buck stops nowhere and with no one. Huh.
December 1, 2025 at 11:32 PM
Again, @jtbourne.bsky.social, can you urge your producer to conduct a session with your three that emphasizes no interruptions, allowing a complete thought and cuts down on all three of you talking at once? It's lousy broadcasting.
December 1, 2025 at 10:49 PM
Even the Pittsburgh #Penguins are cheating against the #Leafs by skating, passing and looking in sync. What gives? As they did last night, the Buds scored on their first shot (against the run of play) in a scramble.
November 30, 2025 at 12:26 AM
With most #Leafs unable to make a pass, take a pass or finish, the #Capitals wire a shot past Joseph #Woll and, voila, 3-2 #Capitals with 3 minutes left. The Leafs had a 2-0 lead. Wow!
November 29, 2025 at 12:29 AM
The #Leafs Morgan #Rielly is a sieve. A non-contact, non-defender. Yikes! He's been on for both #Capitals goals as the Buds are only in this game, AGAIN, because of Joseph #Woll. 2-2 With 6 minutes left in the third.
