The Irrelevant "Problem"
This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. I got a chuckle listening to Hockey Central on Rogers Sportsnet today. Apparently the Toronto Maple Leafs losing to Phoenix 5-1 on Saturday has the hockey "experts" asking what's to be done with the club. Should the coach and/or GM be fired? Should any or all players from Mats Sundin down be traded?
The thing is, these questions are irrelevant because this "problem" is irrelevant.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are the envy of all hockey franchises. Winning is irrelevant to them because they always sell out. They get as much if not more press coverage (if that's possible) with these "what's wrong with the Leafs?" stories than they ever would with a winner.
I once asked my dad, who was born and raised in Montreal, what would happen if the Canadiens were to play as poorly long term as the Leafs. He said it would never happen, because the players would get stoned.
More tomorrow.
Regards,
Irrelevant
