21 seconds lol
try doing a minute like everyone else, if he wore number 2 would you do a 2 second silence ? leafs are a joke on and off the ice lol
RIP Salming. You will be missed.
Touching tribute for one of the greatest players to ever step on the ice and play the game of hockey! A cup win for Borje would’ve been wonderful but the contributions he made to the team mean so much more! Still miss you, rest in power and long live the king! 21 forever 💙💛👑
RIP Salming. You'll be remembered as the greatest Leafs legend of All time! Gone but not forgotten!
Wooooo! pathetic disgusting disgraceful laughs fan independent late no more high mind. Your pathetic 55 years no cup Toronto make me laughs sux 🤣🤣🤣😂😭🤣

Beware of photoshoped scams on Facebook. People taking advantage of a hero's death is vile.
and still some random a**holes talked.
Amazing tribute! 🇸🇪🍁❤️🍁🇨🇦
Legends don't die. Their presence lives forever. Thank you Borje. We all pretended to be you at one time or another playing road hockey as kids.
Classless of Make Beliefs to give a supposed star player only a 21 second tribute! LET’S GO DEBS!!!
Lets win this game for Borje
R.I.P🙏
😔
A great hockey player and a warrior to the end.
RIP Legend
Thank you Borje and great job to the Leafs for tonight and recent tributes to Borje that all of Leafs Nation could watch and participate in.
As they all say, silence is the loudest sound
❤❤❤❤🕊🕊
Great Game Tonight! Go Leafs Goo!!
❤️🌹
Can you imagine when Gretzky passes away, try standing & stay silent for 99 seconds? It's longer than we think!
They were talking about him on the red wings game cuz he played his final pro season in Detroit, & Mickey Redmond who’s not much of an emotional guy was trying hard not to cry cuz he knew Borje played against him and everyone in hockey considered him a friend because he was the ultimate team player but Mickey said he spoke with idk if it was shanahan or sittler it was someone popular within the leafs organization, and they said when he got diagnosed it was uncontrollable like it was one of those rare ALS cases where it went to his lungs immediately and that’s why he didn’t live for 2 to 4 years. At least he’s not suffering anymore though he went home to be with the lord, and with some of his colleagues that played in Toronto, korolev, Armstrong, coach punch imlach guys that he played with or knew off the ice. I think he’s professional hockey’s first ALS casualty sadly, just I want everyone to know that ALS right now theirs no cure will their ever be one I think eventually their will be, but it really is sad though, I hope Borje has found peace in those pearly gates.
Proud to be a Swede and proud to see how Maple Leafs and Canada represent them selves.
Thanks folks for sharing this with us he will be missed but not forgot
I was there , so touching !
RIP ♥

It can't be overestimated how hard it was for Swedes to adopt to American hockey, they were used to "the play" and not at all with the physical parts as means of winning. As such, a lot of Swedes got the hell tackled out of them over and over, especially as outsiders, to peg them down. He had over 116(!) stitches done in his FACE from all the injuries. But Börje was of the old guard, the greater generation, so he just sucked it up and kept moving forward. He had such work ethic, team-comradery and principles that even his opponents ended up respecting and venerating him. There's a reason this village-guy from tiny Sweden is being honoured halfway across the globe: He earned every part of it.
If you want tears, I recommend his last appearance at the Swedish sports-awards. Where the entire ensemble end up giving him a standing ovation to both Börje's and half the crowd's tears. Keep in mind Sweden has one of the worlds highest WM/Olympic medals per capita so there's a fuckton of literal titans of sports in that crowd and they still pay their respects to Börje, as he deserved.
RIP Börje.
