<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AC14</b></div><div>Your first two sentences are ridiculous. Just because I live in St Louis doesn’t mean I’m a chef of ravioli or barbecue. Just because you live in Toronto doesn’t mean you’re an expert on hockey. Both are probably far from the truth.

The whole teams xgf and xga percentages aren’t great. It’s called a dysfunctional team. It’s why those stats aren’t as useful as a lot of you ‘geniuses’ like to portray them to be.

Parayko is not a great offensive facilitator. But he’s an extremely and mean extremely effective 1 on 1 defender who lacks help and he chips in 5-10g 20-25 assists a season. That’s not a 2nd pairing defenseman. But I guess I’ll have to defer to you since you are clearly on TSN analyzing hockey since you’re from Toronto</div></div>

You should listen to Carter Hutton on Leafs Morning Take.

He talks about playing in different markets and how in Toronto for example fans know their **** while in Nashville the in arena announcer has to say , " The Press have a 5 on 4 power play after a penalty from..." And how in many US market they cheer at random times in the game cause they just don't understand what is going on.

It does matter where you are. Not a given everyone from Toronto knows hockey but those from Toronto on a site like this likely grew up playing and many played high levels or worked in/around the game at some point.

I've lived in Toronto where there is a rink every 3/4 blocks, Vancouver where there is one in all of downtown and a few California cities where it's easier to find synthetic ice or roller rinks than ice rinks.

Hate on Toronto fans all you want but the main reason they are disliked is because they are smart enough to understand **** and you naturally don't like the guy who can point out all your flaws.
