The "Toronto Maple Leafs Facebook page"

As regular readers will know, 'Nucks and Pucks has made a habit of mocking the Toronto Maple Leafs again and again. And again and again and again and again and again and again. So I highly entertained when I saw this "official" Maple Leafs Facebook page at the Leafs blog Down Goes Brown.

Do check it out, this is brilliant stuff. Many of the feeds are lough-out-loud funny. I especially enjoyed:

• June 27, 2008: Bryan McCabe writing "That sucks! Won't be the same around here without you!" in response to the news that "Darcy Tucker has left the group The Muskoka Five."

• Bob Gainey poking Mats Sundin multiple times before getting blocked by Mats in September.

• December 18, 2008: "Mats Sundin and Leafs Nation changed their relationship status to "It's Complicated."

• "Curtis Joseph completed the quiz "Which 1990s Maple Leaf are you?" with the result "You are Curtis Joseph."

• April 13, 2009: Ian White, Luke Schenn, Jason Blake, Niklas Hagman, Mikhail Grabovski, Martin Gerber and Ron Wilson added Switzerland to the Places I've Been application.

Sorry, no original content in this post. But I had to spread the word on the Leafs hilarity. Enjoy!

Own Goals Addendum

The segue clip to the SportsCentre Top 10 caused the Toronto Sun to run the headline "Brian McKlutz." And yes, because it is the Toronto Sun, it was the headline on the front page of the newspaper. Because, y'know, the Maple Leafs are always more important than anything else that happens in the world. You can check out the cover here.

Additionally, if this Top 10 had been featured this season, this now-infamous Ryan O' Byrne own goal would no doubt have featured highly on the list:



The O'Byrne own goal sent the game to overtime, where the Canadiens lost. This are the same Canadiens who are battling to stay in playoff contention. And if they miss out on the playoffs by one point... well, O'Byrne might just become as big a goat in Montreal as Steve Smith is in Edmonton.
