By the way, Toronto fans are not happy Montreal got everything for its 100th anniversary while Los Angeles got All-Star and the draft went to Chicago for theirs. At the NBA All-Star Game, I ran that by a Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment exec who said, “When everything is announced, it will all make sense.†If you’re not satisfied then, please send your complaints to [email protected].

The NHL is appointing me as the new president and CEO

Or the NHL's first day of the regular season has been renamed from "Game On" to "Toronto Maple Leafs appreciation day"

Or NHL invokes world's first "Ontario boys comin' home" clause allowing for all Ontario born players to cancel their current contracts and sign with the Leafs on July 1, 2016

If they'd like to say sorry, say it with Auston Matthews.
Apology accepted.

Or NHL is removing Glen Healy, Jim Hughson, Nick Kypreos, Strombo, and Cox indefinitely from all Leafs broadcasts

If the NHL had announced everything Toronto was getting for their centennial before Los Angeles was given the 2017 All Star Game and Chicago was given the 2017 draft, I don't think Leafs fans would be that upset. Now I still think Toronto deserved those events, however the NHL made us feel like our centennial season does not matter with other teams being awarded events for next season.

Leafs Centennial: MLSE Exec "When everything is announced, it will all make sense"

Figured We'd start one organized thread for everything Leafs Centennial.

Here's the Latest from Elliotte.

27. This week’s 2016-17 outdoor game update: John Shannon reported Edmonton at Winnipeg in October. We’re expecting the Winter Classic in St. Louis on Jan. 2, with Chicago as the opponent. So, that leaves Jan. 1 to Toronto, as has been mentioned. I originally thought it would be against the Rangers, but now I’m going with Detroit. As Regis Philbin would ask, that’s my final answer. Hope I didn’t need a lifeline. By the way, Toronto fans are not happy Montreal got everything for its 100th anniversary while Los Angeles got All-Star and the draft went to Chicago for theirs. At the NBA All-Star Game, I ran that by a Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment exec who said, “When everything is announced, it will all make sense.

Discuss.

Whatever is supposed to be announced better be good

 

[613Leafer]

We'll probably end up with the World Cup of Hockey (which is a big money grab sent here to drain the biggest hockey market of $$$ to support the league elsewhere) and a stadium series type of outdoor game instead of the actual winter classic.

What else is there?

 

[Stephen]

Announce Auston Matthews as a centennial gift and all is forgiven.

 

[Cor]

Well, we know we are getting a Jan 1 game. We just don't know who against. [Both Rangers and Red Wings rumored] I assume the Marlies will play an outdoor game as well. As well of an alumni game.

And that's going to be terrific, however I don't how that will make sense considering the previous standard set.

I'm trying to think outside the box to think of what the NHL and MLSE could do. But I just can't.

I would give up every gift I would possibly receive for the rest of my life for this!!

 

[Erdinger]

The NHL already owes the Habs something for trading for and then burying John Scott. Now the Leafs owed as well? Bettman couldn't even rig the draft so that the Oilers didn't win.

 

[Woll Smoth]

Leafs don't get anything else for their centennial year

Media: "Gary Bettman doesn't give a **** about Toronto"

MLSE Exec: "See, it all makes sense"

The first thing that came to my mind was the Leafs playing in multiple outdoor games next season. The Rangers played in 2 Stadium Series games in 2014 at Yankee Stadium when they were the "visiting team."

1 at home and 1 away in montreal? Could see that.

 

[HEAVY DUTY]

fine if it'll makes sense once it gets announced, then when the heck does that get announced?

 

[Banic]

That makes 2 of us if they throw in Paul Romanuk.

 

[LeafsNation75]

I was thinking 2 games at BMO Field. One against the Red Wings or Rangers and another one against the Canadiens.

 

[Leafsman]

I would likely do it for just getting rid of Healy

 

[burpsalot]

That makes 2 of us if they throw in Paul Romanuk.

Don't forget Millen.

An extra couple of balls on lottery day.

 

[The Thin White Duke]

If we win the lottery do you guys wanna place bets on how long it'll take for people to make a huge deal about this quote in the main boards?

 

[harvestglen]

Getting several in 2017-2018 would do the trick just fine I think. Depends whether you want everything in the 100th year or simply to celebrate 100 seasons. You can do the latter the next year. I don't necessarily think that's what is being implied here, but it would certainly make me happiest as a fan.

Pretty much. The habs celebrated theirs over 3 seasons with various acknowledgements. That was pretty obnoxious though for anyone other than montreal fan.

 

[Guy Boucher]

Unless its Matthews, I'm not really interested.
