The Out of Town - Losing to your own zamboni driver - Thread Part 41

Would this Ayres/Carolina story still feel quite as big as it is if this happened against, let's say, Ottawa or Buffalo?

I feel like it being against the Leafs has magnified it in a way that Scott Foster vs. Winnipeg was not.

It is I think, although Ayres played longer than Foster and he is also an employee of Marlies, which I think definitely plays a role.

That Winnipeg team was better across the board than TOR (that was their West Finals year), but WPG was already locked into 2nd place in their division and the Leafs are fighting like hell just to get in.

Yeah, completely different stakes.

Canes fan coming in peace.

He got some signed stuff from RBA and Reimer and he is getting royalties from sales of his jersey. Money will go to a kidney foundation of his choosing as well.

Classy AF

while our playoff hope are still minimal, i have to admit i am starting to want it just to have that over the leafs super built championship caliber team.
Even though , unlike the great MB, i do believe once you are in, nothing will happen.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

Here to say lol Leafs.

 

[jaffy27]

I just realized that this guy is going to have to go in tomorrow and flood the ice for them at practice.

I suddenly started laughing hysterically. When my wife asked me what happened, I told her and she started laughing too.

How the hell do you lose to your own zamboni driver???

Well, It all starts with the Shanaplan.......this team are a bunch of clowns, none bigger then Dumbass

 

[Forum93]

Have to say, woke up in an exceptionally good mood. Leafs losing against their Zamboni driver, Bruins getting embarrassed, and Habs beating the Turds- feels good man.

Damn Vancouver really gave Boston a beating last night.

 

[DAChampion]

It is interesting that the Islanders are better without Tavares, and the Leafs are worse with him.

Perhaps he's actually not that great a player in spite of his offensive numbers.

Lack of character and leadership.

Craig Button hitting hard:

 

[cphabs]

Awesome! Was he really their Zamboni driver?

He's the Zamboni Driver for the Marlies' arena. He's also taken part at practices for the Leafs and the Marlies when they decide to give their goalies a rest for practice.

This is why he had a Marlies mask for the game and had blue pants. He was wearing is Marlies gear he wears at the Leafs/Marlies practices.

How the heck did they sign him? LMAO one of the best hockey stories ever! Seriously!

I always liked Rod. Good to see he’s still creating memories.

They didn't sign him. There are emergency goalies at every NHL game should the rare occasion come up where both of a team's goalies get injured (as was the case last light for Carolina). He is there to play for either team if they need it.

It was the case a few years ago in Chicago with Scott Foster.

I may get a Canes jersey with “Dave” tackled on it! Beautiful story!

 

[habdynasty]

We should all get together today and go beat the leafs , I'll be goalie.

 

[cphabs]

I hope they print him a rookie card for 20/21!

Anyone knows who is our emergency guy at Centre Bell?
