Cliff Fletcher was a Stanley Cup winner, HHOF fame. Classy, smart, fearless. Beloved and respected. Blessed to have worked with him in TO. Taught me to always try to make your deals bigger, so I did! 2 great kids, was lucky to work with Kristy and Chuck. Sad day. RIP, Cliff.

We lost a giant today, a true Canadian hero. Dr. Hayden can never be replaced, his work with the Special Olympics was truly remarkable. reddit.com/r/sports/s/Jf3suw…

Another giant lost in Jim Robson. Wonderful man, kind, a true gentleman, and the gold standard behind the mic. A huge part of Canucks (and NHL) history.
RIP, Jim.

Lost two giants this week. David Branch was the lighthouse for Junior hockey for 50 years. Bob Pulford was a hard-nosed, intellectual player and longtime GM. Both will be sorely missed.

Yup, I’ll eat it.
I did NOT think the Leafs had that game in them (again, @Burkie2020 was right and yes, I got the gloating text). Game 7’a are always jump ball so let’s see what happens.
Biggest winner last night after the Leafs - the Hurricanes.
