My condolences go out to Mr. Chaisson this morning as the Leafs lost again in the first round of the playoffs. Are you wearing a golf shirt today Mr. Chaisson?

Here are a few Leaf facts brought to you by Monsieur Melanson to all Leaf fans especially Mr. Chaisson and Mme Stevens.

Yes I know th Habs are already out on the golf course but so are the Leafs.

Did you know that the Toronto Maple Leafs are the only “Leafs” that do fall every spring?

What NHL Team currently holds the longest drought for winning the Stanley Cup? Yes you guessed it? The Toronto Maple Leafs with a whopping 57 years!  I hope you all enjoyed these Leaf facts – I know I did – love Monsieur Melanson

 

Wellness Wednesday – Mr. Chaisson!
