Go Leafs Go! Luck beats talent any day!
Sat Nov 12 20:55:39 2005 EST (-0500 GMT)It’s the end of the second period of the Toronto v. Montreal game and Toronto is winning 3-2. Isn’t it great that we can play horribly and still win? Don’t get me wrong, it’d be better if we had a better team, but I just like how The Maple Leafs can look like total goons for 30 minutes and be totally outclassed by the other team and still win.
It’s one of the main reasons the rest of Canada hates Toronto.
It has a lot to do with Toronto’s star goalies over the last two decades – but it also has a lot to do with Toronto always getting what they didn’t earn.
A little luck will go a long way, maybe not all the way to the cup, but Ottawa knows how much further it will get you than talent.
