Ladies and gentlemen, the Board has once again shown their uncanny gift for “accidental” timing. Out of 365 perfectly good evenings in the year, they chose October 8th – the night the Toronto Maple Leafs face off against the Montreal Canadiens in the opening game of the season.
Coincidence?
Sure. And the board’s timing is always “impeccable”.
📺 The Great Choice
This is your evening:
- Option A: Watch Auston Matthews bury one in the back of the net while your neighbours cheer.
- Option B: Watch Mildred bury facts in the back of the filing cabinet while your board mumbles “we did nothing wrong.”

🧩 The Board’s Logic
Why schedule on a hockey holiday? Let’s review the possibilities:
- Ignorance – They live in a parallel universe where hockey is just “a winter activity with sticks.”
- Incompetence – They didn’t bother to check the schedule.
- Intentional – They knew exactly what they were doing: fewer owners = fewer questions.
No matter which option you pick, the result is the same: you lose.
🎠Final Score Prediction
- Leafs vs Canadiens: unpredictable.
- Board vs Owners: Board 1 – Transparency 0.
