"I’ve been on the record for a while now calling 2016-17 Toronto’s stepping stone season, as in the year between bottoming out (last season) and making the postseason (next year).

Prominent Toronto hockey family feels forgotten | Toronto Sun
“The Conachers go back to turn-of-the-century Toronto,” said Brian. “My father was born in 1900, his mother came from just outside Dublin, Ireland, in 1876 and my Dad’s family came from Scotland.

If so, why did nobody ask them where the heck Shane went?
