Toronto Maple Leafs Re-imagined as the Cast of Game of Thrones
By Jeff Borsuk
Petyr Baelish
Timothy Liljegren would embody the cunning and deceitful Petyr Baelish, always one step ahead of the competition with his quick thinking and sharp moves.
Liljegren, like Baelish, has a knack for making his opponents look foolish. He has a mischievous streak that makes him the perfect fit for the Master of Coin, who is always looking for an advantage and is never above using deceit to get what he wants.
Whether he’s playing mind games with the enemy or setting up his teammates with a stretch pass, Liljegren always has a trick up his sleeve.
Daenerys Targaryen
William Nylander would bring his dragon sized passion for the game into the role of Daenerys Targaryen.
Nylander is a player who never gives up and always strives for greatness especially in the face of adversity. He has a fierce determination that makes him the perfect fit for Daenerys, who is on a mission to reclaim the Iron Throne and restore her family to its rightful place as rulers of the Seven Kingdoms.
Whether he’s leading his troops into battle or scoring the game-winning goal, Nylander truly is the Mother of Dragons.
Ser Jorah Mormont
TJ Brodie would play the honorable and stoic Ser Jorah Mormont, providing a steady presence on the Leafs’ defense and on the battlefield.
After working through an oblique injury, Brodie has been a knight who is there when his team needs him, providing a solid and reliable presence in his own end.
He has a quiet strength that makes him the perfect fit for Jorah, who is always willing to put himself in harm’s way to protect those he cares about. Brodie has the courage and determination to get the job done.
