Tonight is the second of three Maple Leafs vs. Canucks games and wouldn’t it be nice for a repeat of the Leafs knocking it out of the part again, this time on national TV, starting at 7:00 p.m., or 4:00 p.m. pacific time, of course, as it should be.
This also means that, yes, the Leafs are on CBC tonight, unlike last weekend when the Leafs game was scandalously shunted over to Sportsnet, leaving the CBC to air a Canadiens vs. Flames game. What has this country come to that we now allow hockey games with teams from Alberta and Quebec to be on Saturday night prime-time terrestrial TV?
