3 h. ago Leafs players roamed Toronto streets before playoff games and hardly anyone noticed

There's a common belief held that if you ever find yourself as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs, your life will never be the same.With a rabid media market, eagle-eyed fans, and about as much pressure as any professional athlete could be expected to have, even fringe Leafs players are assumed to have a tough time being anonymous in Toronto.But that might not exactly be the case.Posted up on the corner of Bay and Front streets before Game 1 and 2 against the Ottawa Senators in the opening round of the playoffs this week, fan Brian Encarnacao shared a few videos on his Instagram page of Leafs players opting to walk down the street to Scotiabank Arena rather than take a car or public transit.With thousands of fans packed into Maple Leaf Square, the arena itself, and nearby bars, restaurants, and condos to watch the game, you'd imagine the players would be bugged by people trying to stop them for an autograph or a quick pic.One of the players spotted by Encarnacao before both...

4 h. ago Hudson's Bay to close remaining Ontario stores initially believed to be spared

The six Hudson's Bay department stores in Ontario and Quebec that were spared from closure have found their reprieve to be only temporary.Hopes for retaining these locations to potentially continue a seamless, downsized existence of the iconic Canadian retailer, which was first founded 354 years ago as a fur trading business, have now faded.This, it seems, is where the curtain finally falls on an era of a storied company.In a new court filing that has yet to be published at the time of writing, the six store locations added to the liquidation and imminent closure list now include the heritage downtown Toronto flagship store at 176 Yonge St., the Yorkdale Shopping Centre store in Toronto, and the Hillcrest Mall in Richmond Hill, Ontario.In Quebec, the remaining locations that will close include the heritage downtown Montreal flagship store at 585 Saint-Catherine St. W., CF Carrefour Laval mall, and CF Fairview Pointe-Claire mall.Liquidation at these six remaining locations will b...

10 h. ago Edmonton Oilers get slapped in the mouth, have one foot in the grave

What’s worse than losing Game 2 of a playoff series to fall behind 2-0? Losing it the way the Edmonton Oilers did Wednesday night in Los Angeles. Edmonton didn’t just lose, it got smoked. Rolled over. Pummelled. Embarrassed. Beaten down and left for dead. If that 6-2 slap in the face was Edmonton’s best response […]
