Toronto Maple Leafs played at Maple Leaf Gardens until Feb 1999. The PATH was created before then.

The portion of the PATH connecting Union Station to the ACC is a few hundred metres at most.

I can't see how anyone in Toronto would help people from Montreal enjoy a Habs win over the Leafs. :)

Torontonians call it the "ACC", (short for Air Canada Centre, before its current rebranding to Scotiabank Arena - Google Maps knows both). Also, it's "Skydome", not Rogers Centre. :)



I should clarify I was told this by a guy who lives in Montreal, who apparently was retelling the story he heard from a guy who lives in Toronto with minor editorializing.


Well, Air Canada's HQ is based in Quebec. So maybe the C-suite at Air Canada pulled some strings at Toronto City Hall.

Not sure how the Habs have lost their way in the past few years. First-pick of Quebec's hockey players helped a lot I guess.


The Habs lost their way much earlier than that. They were the cultural identity ~50 years ago. They instigated a revolution. Nowadays they're just a cog in an American empire.


Tbf it said could, not would: the potential for watching the win is what entices; without game fixing it'd be good sportsmanship to not shit on a person's favorite if one wants anything from said person.


Yeah I was going to say, the ACC is basically connected to Union already, you don't need some complex system of tunnels to get from one to the other.
