The Toronto Maple Leafs won the first game of the Mark Giordano era.
The main acquisition for the Toronto Maple Leafs at the trade deadline this year was former Norris winner (and current 38-year-old) Mark Giordano, a nice, albeit not too flashy, piece that at least allowed the Leafs to keep their prospect and 1st-round pick capital.
Some wanted a more desirable name on the blueline (Chariot for a 1st, 4th and prospect? I’d rather build a chariot), some thought the net needed attention (goaltending is shakier than the Babcock-Commodore relationship) while others thought that hideous yellow jersey with the weird makeshift face in the middle of the leaf was actually attractive.
