I am a die hard Toronto Maple Leafs fan, but I love Jon Cooper. This interview is absolutely perfect! He's obviously one of the nicest guys you would ever meet in your lifetime, and his knowledge of hockey is unparalleled. You can't help but like a very smart, very nice person who is confident in his beliefs, and yet, is unbelievably gracious even when he loses. Love this guy!

I just don't respect that he was all "meh" about losing the in 2022 Cup Finals, as if he truly won real Cups in '20 and '21. I don't care what anyone else thinks about that matter... those were fake seasons and fake Cups. Even the majority of the players did not want the playoffs to happen and agreed with ROR when he said, "we have to protect the integirty of the Cup." • Shortned season • Playing only within your division • No crowd factor for a great portion of the games (whether teams feed off home crowds or away crowds better, it is still a factor) • Wack playoff format And please don't bring up '95 and '13. Those are real Cups with asterisks. '20 and '21 are just fake Cups.

@@joshuaneal7552I think 2020 should always have an asterisk as a bubble championship. But I think them winning that, then ‘21 with a shortened offseason, and then going to finals in 22 showed this team’s worth. Plus all to bounce back after the biggest playoff embarrassment in history against Columbus (until maybe the bruins this year). This is a championship team no question

​@@joshuaneal7552 Thats bullshit. Its not fair to say those were fake cups. Everyone competed and no one was at a disadvantage.

[@joshuaneal7552]

@@ryanprosper88 Yeah, I guess you're right about '21. Still needs an astereisk like '95 and '13. 2020 for sure was a clown show, though.

Bro was shitting Lalonde for going on the show then proceeds to go on the show? How much are they paying you Cooper?

[@a_coleman11]

the issue wasnt going on the show... it was giving away secrets and certain strategies on the show. remember, hockey players and coaches will tell you nothing until when its all said and done. and he gave away secrets on the leafs AS THEY WERE PLAYING THE LEAFS.

@@a_coleman11 Okay that's what Copper doing right now

@@jonah.donohue saying players needing to be on IV’s during a 3+ OT game isnt surprising. God knows how much water or weight they’ve lost. (Btw i’d love to know how much weight is lost during an average NHL game)

@@a_coleman11 What Secret? It's not a secret that Vasy is bad glove side high lmfao. That's been a known thing about his goaltending for years now... Even in the Tor TBL series last year, I remember this being discussed..
