John Tory shows that his hockey instincts are as good as his political ones. The Leafs’ chances of winning a cup this year are about as good as…well…John Tory’s chances of becoming Premier.
(Queen’s Park) – Progressive Conservative Party Leader John Tory today said that Dalton McGuinty is showing questionable judgement once again by supporting the Ottawa Senators and applauding a prediction that they would win the Stanley Cup.“The Senators have won the Stanley Cup quite a few times in October,” said Tory. “While I hope the Stanley Cup champion is from Ontario, I’m rooting for the Leafs to come out on top.”Like many Ontarians, Tory will join family and friends tonight to watch the game at home and cheer on the Toronto Maple Leafs.“I am a lifelong Leafs fan and will continue to support my team tonight as they take on the Sens,” Tory said. “Even though critics view the Leafs as underdogs this year, I still like their chances. Most of all, I’m delighted that hockey is back.”
