The Toronto Maple Leafs are preparing to get underway with their 2024-25 season. Before the season begins a few players including superstar William Nylander crossed over with TSN's Bardown trivia show. During their appearance, the Maple Leafs players were tasked with guessing various goal horns of teams in the NHL.
At one point when William Nylander was listening to a goal horn the host of the trivia tried to give William Nylander a hint as to what he was hearing. The host revealed that the goal horn William Nylander was hearing was one he should hear often. Immediately WIlliam Nylander responded and guessed the Boston Bruins. The only problem is that he was hearing the goal horn of the Maple Leafs and not the Bruins.
This of course has led to the internet exploding making fun of not only William Nylander but the Maple Leafs as well. The Maple Leafs of course fell to the Bruins in Game 7 of the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
This error by William Nylander is being compounded on by the fact that a video clip of him and Mitch Marner arguing during the playoffs against the Boston Bruins recently surfaced as well. The clip shows William Nylander frustrated and shouting at Mitch Marner for acting childish.
With all of these things stacking up as the season gets underway, the Toronto Maple Leafs will face questions about the Boston Bruins all season long. The Bruins seem to be on the minds of the players and in particular William Nylander.
The two sides first meet on October 26th in Boston this will be the first opportunity for the Maple Leafs to try and get back at the Bruins throughout the regular season.
