[Koshan] Keefe a déclaré que les #Leafs allaient demander à O’Reilly de porter un A pour un match, vraisemblablement à Tampa lorsque 16 et 34 se sont absentés. « Il n’en voulait pas – ‘Je n’en ai pas besoin, donne-le à quelqu’un d’autre.’ C’est le genre de gars qu’il est. Très altruiste. Kerfoot portait un A ce soir-là.
Keefe said the #Leafs were going to have O'Reilly wear an A for a game, presumably in Tampa when 16 and 34 sat out. "He didn't want it – 'I don't need that, give it to someone else.' That's the type of guy that he is. Vey selfless." Kerfoot wore an A that night.

Paul Marner: Good.
I would’ve gave it to Willy LOL, even tho he’s a quiet guy, he had a great season.
Kerfoot looked kinda deadly with the A, first time I’ve seen him drive to the net with a toe drag instead of skating around the perimeter and trying to cycle
Real gud pro
O’Reilly: « Double it and give it to the next person. »
Okay fine. You’ll get the Conn Smyth instead ROR.
« Hey, we’re dating casually. Let’s see how it goes over the next few weeks and then we can consider whether I should meet your parents. »
Damn I hope we can get him on some kind of home town deal after this year
He’s gonna be an X factor for us for sure. He’s a player that’s just kind of scary facing in the playoffs. Mean and angry and huge
Willy probably should have gotten it.
Happy for Footer but would have been nice to see Nylander get some recognition as one of our best fwds and a guy that tends to take the younger ones under his wings.
kerfy deserves one full time imo. his selflessness in doing whatever is asked of him by keefe is exemplary.
Lazy O’Reilly Lacks Leadership, Wants Out of Toronto – Simmons, probably
Anyone got a photo with kerfoot wearing the A?
Fuck that. I’d have worn that shit and been like “damn boys, been here 5 minutes already movinnnnnnn uppppppp suck ma deeeeeeeee losers!”
Willy doesn’t respond to accolades… he responds to getting benched.
Surprised they didn’t give it to Willy. Tavares, Spezza and others has spoken about how he has been much more verbal and more of a leader the last couple of years, always takes the swedes and younger guys under his wing. Always first on the ice and the last off at practice, always shows up for optional skates. And he always shows up in the playoffs.
Seriously, why doesn’t he already have an A?
