@Chris...

Ugh, imageshack is junk. The photo will probably be back soon, if not I'll repost somewhere else.

Come on DGB.....0-5-1 start I am going to need a post very soon. Something to make me laugh instead of cry. My fiance is starting to think I have a sensative side.

The transcript of Burke talking to Chiarelli about how he was only F*cking around with that trade and would like to take it back or something........

You'd have to combine the worst parts of a lot of players to create Kyle Wellwood, that takes a lot of beef.

In my basement back home, I have a stick signed by Wendel Clark that I won in a hockey tournament.

I feel like I should put it on eBay to gouge a Leafs fan.

I'm assuming that this was originally colour. I totally remember that they purposely didn't add in the 'red eye reduction' treatment so the swollen eye was a blood red hole.

@clawson...

I've actually got a ton of this stuff laying around somewhere. I used to save the Star's sports section whenever something interesting happened. Some day I'll crack open the vault and dig through.

You know DGB, if you ever want some more newspapers articles involving the Leafs I could spend sometime in the library looking through microfilm for you.

Now that your life's ambition has been fulfilled, what will you do now?

Oh, there's lots of work left to do. I still haven't identified Pinky Finger, had a chance to confront Kerry Fraser, or attended Chris Durno's Maple Leaf contract signing.

2009-10-08T22:48:26.732-04:00

i don't know if this is good or bad, but i think if the leafs finally do win the cup, it still won't be as special as the 93 team was

FU kerry fraser...you ruined the natural course of history

everything has been downhill since...increased world hunger, terrorism, 3 point hockey games, etc

My favorite quote about McSorley comes from that game. Pat Burns was asked during the post-game presser about McSorley's elbow on Doug Gilmour, and here's what he had to say:

"If Ken Baumgartner did that to Wayne Gretzky, we would have been hung on Parliament Hill."

Man... every time I find myself stuck on a particular Bioethics or Biology paper, I find myself browsing through this blog just to see what gold-mines I've yet to discover.

This is a great find. Whoever found this article deserves major kudos. I was actually thinking to myself that I should head over to the Toronto archives to see if I could find clippings from the reports of the game.

I'm laughing at the "Baumgartner awaits orders" headline. Such an unbelievable game - I just turned 10 years old - that entire playoff run was the first time I've ever been allowed to stay up late to watch the Leafs' games. It brings back a flood of great memories.

Hopefully we can get to that kind of success with the culmination of a Stanley Cup win. Just once.

As always, great writing Sean.

2009-10-08T18:37:30.921-04:00

This is indeed a great find. Didn't the Toronto Sun run the same photo on their front page with a headline of "McsOWrly!" or "McSOARly!" or something? Also, gotta love "Baumgartner Awaits Orders". Are you sure the Leafs didn't win the cup that year and I'm just remember it wrong? Please tell me I am...
