Encouraged to see how many commenters are coming to Zach Hyman's defence here. Any attempt to diminish his accomplishment and/or the undeniable amount of work that went into it because of his family's wealth is truly missing the forest for the trees.

A couple of weeks ago I took my first Porter flight out of Pearson airport and it was everything economy travel should be. open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…
"You can hear and feel the passion, and the love for this team is incredible." The Maple Leafs took to the ice for their annual outdoor practice at Nathan Phillips Square on Thursday. More on the practice, plus several photos I took from the event. ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
A new entry from @TheRoadBiz is up where I talk about staying at a 4.5 star hotel and the discounts added up where I effectively got paid for the stay. ↩️ open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…
Another check-in from what the Chicago/Pittsburgh trip was like. And that time where I saved $50 by renting a car instead of Ubering ⤵️ Latest from @TheRoadBiz open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…
Conor Timmins will make his season debut for the Leafs today, Sheldon Keefe confirms Calle Jarnkrok will take warm-up & remains a game-time decision Alex Steeves & Ryan Reaves will also be on the ice for warm-up @TSN_Edge
Wrapping up a week in Sweden. Randomly meeting the bassist from the band ‘Europe’ and how I got a row of empty seats on my flight home for just $30. The latest from @TheRoadBiz newsletter ⤵️ open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri… open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…

Good morning, from Stockholm. In my latest newsletter post for @TheRoadBiz. I take you on a little journey of what the last couple of days have been like and a fun little airplane wi-fi hack ↩️ open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…
Gearing up for Sweden. 🇸🇪 open.substack.com/pub/theroadtri…
"I think they are calling around and gauging the market." Could the Maple Leafs go after a Flames defenceman given how Calgary's season is going right now? ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma… thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
Last call folks.
If you were following the old RinkWideTOR account, it has migrated to my newsletter/chat @TheRoadBiz Went through a soft launch on the #Leafs road trip but preparing to ramp up the content ahead of the Swedish trip. You can check out more here. ⤵️ theroad.biz
How are you feeling about today’s news? Drop a gif here.
🚨The Toronto Maple Leafs have inked Auston Matthews to a massive 4 year contract extension worth $53 million 💰💰💰 #LeafsForever
‘It doesn’t get much better than that for us’ - #Leafs captain John Tavares pumped to see Auston Matthews commit beyond next season ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
Cross off Brad Treliving’s No. 1 box on the to-do list as Matthews is committed through 2027-28 ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
I feel fortunate to continue this journey as a Maple Leaf in front of the best fans in hockey! I will do everything I can to help get us to the top of the mountain. GLG! #LeafsForever

My very early look at projected #Leafs lines as things stand ahead of training camp. ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
#Marlies sign defenseman David Farrance to a one-year deal. A good skater and puck-mover who can help offensively, but still finding his pro game. ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
#Leafs are heading back to Traverse City, Michigan for the annual prospects tournament next month. Who are you most looking forward to seeing and learning about? thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
The May-Day call is No. 1 without a doubt 🎯. Live your life with the same energy that Rick Jeanneret put into his PxP calls.
💔 The hockey world says goodbye to one of the most legendary and colourful broadcasters in NHL history, the voice of the Sabres, Rick Jeanneret. His LaLaLaLaFontaine goal calls were second only to this:
KHL club Salavat Yulaev Ufa will be retiring #Leafs prospect Rodion Amirov’s #27 ahead of their opener on Sept. 11. Story from myself and @nickbarden ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
"Once the offseason came along and whatnot, and didn’t really hear much, you kind of just figured that it wasn’t going to work out." It was pretty clear in the offseason that Michael Bunting and the #Leafs were headed in a different direction. ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
Roni Hirvonen is No. 2️⃣ in my Maple Leafs prospect rankings for The Hockey News - Toronto. One of the most fascinating prospects in the organization will make his AHL debut later this fall. ⤵️ thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…

Should William Nylander's next contract with the Maple Leafs compare to the deal Sebastian Aho just signed with the Carolina Hurricanes? 🤔 thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-ma…
I asked this earlier today.
