Islanders Anxiety - Summer Special - 32 Thoughts About John Tavares Losing the Maple Leafs Captaincy
Manage episode 433921122 series 2838892
Mike and Dan get together on a Monday in the middle of August to discuss a notable move for the Leafs and a massive celebration for Islanders fans. Announced via tweet by Pat Brisson mouthpiece Darren Dreger, John Tavares has been replaced as Toronto's captain by Auston Matthews, a move that has little to do with the official party line of Matthews' maturity and everything to do with Tavares' failures over the last six seasons. Wearing their usual kid gloves, the Leafs media will throw out phrases like "passing the torch" and "class" rather than calling out Tavares on how he has not lived up to the promise he was expected to deliver, and that Islanders fans have been hearing about for over a decade. We discuss how we got here, what this makes Tavares now and what the future might hold after the "C" is removed and an "A" or nothing is left behind. It's the summer so soak it in and don't forget how it feels.
