The Toronto Maple Leafs Are Getting Roasted By Hockey Fans About A New Amazon Documentary
We all know how this documentary ends...
On October 1, Amazon Prime is coming out with its latest All Or Nothing sports documentary series which will chronicle the 2020-2021 Toronto Maple Leafs season.
And while that's all fine and dandy for the Maple Leafs, some hockey fans have absolutely roasted the Leafs about their new documentary because they've rightfully pointed out that the Leafs end up with, well, nothing.
The memory of the Canadiens' glorious win against their arch-rivals is still fresh in the minds of Habs supporters in Canada and, like some fans have pointed out, it's kind of silly that the Leafs are touting this documentary series when we all know how it ends already.
@PrimeVideoCA @NHL Spoiler Alert : it was 3-1 https://t.co/YWR4bqiwEv— HabANiceDay (@HabANiceDay)1631110733.0
While it's nice that Amazon has finally chronicled an NHL hockey team for its All or Nothing series, choosing the Leafs, perennial playoff losers, perhaps comes as an odd choice.

@NHL @PrimeVideoCA Spoiler alert https://t.co/DFQRt2E4q8— Petrov McGuire (@Petrov McGuire)1631113558.0
Even some Leafs fans don't seem too keen to relive another failed season.
And this time, their embarrassment will be streamed to the whole world.

At least Habs fans can take solace in the fact that the Leafs and their playoff disaster will be streamed across the globe.
Good way to make more Habs fans, innit?

The Montreal Canadiens Could Lose Star Jesperi Kotkaniemi This Weekend Over A Petty Beef
Karma is a b...
It's been almost a week since the Carolina Hurricanes tendered an offer sheet to Montreal Canadiens centre Jesperi Kotkaniemi and there's a good chance that the Habs could lose their star player over a petty beef that goes back two years.
But how did we get here and why is this happening?
We've tendered an Offer Sheet to Jesperi Kotkaniemi 👀 https://t.co/4Mmw3n4DVr— Carolina Hurricanes (@Carolina Hurricanes)1630186300.0
This petty move can be traced back to July 1, 2019, when Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin tendered an offer sheet to Carolina's star centre, Sebastian Aho.
At the time, Bergevin severely underestimated his counterparts in Carolina, Tom Dundon and Don Waddell. They promptly matched Aho's offer sheet — which is now looking like it's a big discount for a player of his talents.
Bergevin also seemingly underestimated his colleague's capacity for revenge. On August 28, 2021, the Hurricanes pulled out a $6,100,015 offer sheet for the Canadiens star player, with a $20 signing bonus.
LOL https://t.co/OXX6n4WK57— Carolina Hurricanes (@Carolina Hurricanes)1630186432.0
Why the weird numbers? It just so happens that 15 is Kotkaniemi's jersey number and 20 is Aho's number.
And given the Canadiens' salary cap situation, it seems likely they won't be able to afford the contract.
Adding further insult to injury, as many outlets have reported, Wadell released a statement that was almost word-for-word the statement that Bergevin put out about Aho in 2019.
The Canadiens camp, meanwhile, has stayed mum about Kotkaniemi's offer sheet and it's now looking more likely that the team will lose one of its star players over petty revenge.
The Canadiens have until Saturday, September 4, to match the offer sheet.

The Lightning’s Mathieu Joseph Brought The Stanley Cup To Montreal & Ate Poutine Out Of It
Now that's how you celebrate!
In what can only be described as the ultimate fine dining experience, Tampa Bay Lightning player and Montrealer Mathieu Joseph brought the Stanley Cup to Montréal-Nord this weekend and ate a giant poutine out of it.
Hockey's holy chalice has had many things in it from beer to a baptized baby but never poutine — at least as far as we can tell!
Now that’s fine dining. 🏆🤌 @MathJoseph7 https://t.co/5qi2rbWSRS— Tampa Bay Lightning (@Tampa Bay Lightning)1629064059.0
Joseph was visiting the borough over the weekend and attended a celebration at a local rink.
The Cup has been making its rounds in Quebec despite the Montreal Canadiens's loss in the final.
Lightning player Alex Killorn took the Cup to his hometown of Beaconsfield and the municipality of Saint-Narcisse-de-Beaurivage announced on Facebook that Yanni Gourde, now of the Seattle Kraken, will bring the Cup to the town on Tuesday.

Corey Perry's Leaving The Canadiens To Play For The Enemy... The Tampa Bay Lightning
This one stings!
Montreal Canadiens forward Corey Perry has been signed to the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Habs' Stanley Cup final rival this past June and July.
Perry, an unrestricted free agent, signed a two-year, $2 million deal with the Lightning, the team he's lost against for the Stanley Cup in the last two seasons — one with the Habs at the end of June, and another as part of the Dallas Stars in 2020.
After facing off against him the last two years in the #StanleyCup Final, the @TBLightning have signed veteran forw… https://t.co/fMGCDxR910— NHL (@NHL)1627590321.0
According to NHL.com, Tampa Bay general manager Julien BriseBois said Perry would bring "a wealth of big game experience to the Lightning."
Perry was drafted by the Anaheim Ducks in the first round of the 2003 NHL Draft, going on to win the Stanley Cup final with the Ducks in 2007.
Perry joins the Habs' Phillip Danault in leaving the team after a series of changes were made to the Canadiens' roster this week.
