The Toronto Maple Leafs were supposed to hold an event for the fans today, but Mother Nature had other plans, and not everyone is happy about it.
Yesterday was disastrous for the Toronto Maple Leafs, as they ended up losing to the Colorado Avalanche by a score of 4-1 in a must-win game.
The Maple Leafs are looking pretty sorry these days, and it feels as though there is no hope for this team going forward.
Having said that, today was supposedto be a joyous occasion for the fans and the franchise as a whole, thanks to the open practice held at the Mattamy Athletic Center.
The practice was set to begin at 11 AM EST. Unfortunately, it will not be happening today due to unforeseen circumstances.
Toronto Maple Leafs cancel open practice
According to a press release put out by the team, the Winter storm in the Toronto area has forced the team to shut down the practice.
It's a sad state of affairs, as fans were looking forward to getting a glimpse of some of their favorite players throughout the day.
Fans on social media were not impressed with the decision, although they must understand that this was done for safety reasons.
Either way, the Maple Leafs are in a tough situation right now, especially as they look to take on the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.
If they cannot get it together in time for that game, then this season could very well be over, especially as the Sabres are one of the teams they must leapfrog.
It has been a weird season for the Leafs, and the weather is apparently making it weirder.
