Clearly you never watched Dan or Jay in the mornings or that whole Hangover spoof... sorry but TSN can be just as bad as that if not worsePretty much.
Even if it's trying to be satirical, You wouldn't see that kind of crap on TSN or CBC.
A horrible video got put on sportsnet bashing the Leafs that looks like it was done by an insecure, whiny Canucks fan. Fuel for the fire!

This will be a tough one. The Sedins and Kesler are playing some very good hockey.
Classy video
Is it possible that this video was made by a Leafs or some other Canadian team fan that wanted to make the Canucks and their fans look like whiney babies? I really don't think that anyone would make such an openly whiney sounding video with such terrible references. I think the video is meant to be satirical to drive up emotions before the game. I really hope that it wasn't serious..
It was made by Dan Murphy. He's been on Sportsnet West for years and is as big a canucks homer as John Garrett.
The bit about retiring jerseys is pretty disrespectful. Yes, the Toronto Maple Leafs don't retire jerseys for everyone and the two people whose jerseys are retired are due to certain circumstances. Ace had a career ending injury and Bill died as an active Leaf.
Again, clearly just a bit of teaching, hence, the video of all the honoured numbers. If they really trying to say 4-2 in retired sweaters, they would have just shown the two retired numbers.
I'm not seeing the humour in it but that's just me. Teasing, satire, homerism what ever it was, it could have done without the retiring number part. With that said, it's also very possible that the person who made the video is legitimately clueless and unable to use Google to figure out the reasoning behind Toronto's actual retired numbers which would take a minute max. But oh well.
I think that video was made all in good fun, rather than with any malicious intent. It's only game, why you heff to be mad?
