Pacific Division

Anaheim Ducks

  • Reminiscing on the 100 trades the Leafs have made with the Ducks, including a happy time when the Leafs received Frederick Andersen and sad trade when they gave away draft picks that turned into Rickard Rakell and John Gibson for Tyler Biggs.

Arizona Coyotes

  • Auston Matthews’ home-coming in Arizona and not thinking about the fact that he’ll probably by a full-time Coyote in four years.

Calgary Flames

  • How every single Calgary Flames fan owns a red jersey and how awesome that arena looks. If only the lower-bowl attendees in Toronto had enough money to buy a jersey and wear it to a game…

Edmonton Oilers

  • Remembering how close Connor McDavid was to becoming a Leaf and discussing with friends if you’d trade McDavid and Leon Draisaitl for Matthews and Mitch Marner.

Los Angeles Kings

  • Never thinking about that high-stick by Wayne Gretzky in 1993, but instead wondering if Drew Doughty would ever come home and play in Toronto, then quickly realizing that he’ll never leave LA.

San Jose Sharks

  • The Shark Tank, but more importantly wondering if Joe Thornton is going to play until he’s 50 and if he’ll ever pull a Patrick Marleau and play in Toronto.

Vancouver Canucks

  • Listening to Vancouver Canucks fans hate everything about Toronto and hearing them complain how they have to play a Saturday Hockey Night in Canada game at 4:00PM PST.

Vegas Golden Knights

  • Remembering the Leafs playing on New Years Eve in Vegas thinking that they actually had a chance at winning that game, then realizing how that was the most predictable loss in the history of hockey.
