I love Willy. Seen him walking his dog around the UofT campus and he gave me a nod and smile.
He loves this city and our fans.

I wish he wouldn’t have apologized. I didn’t think he was flipping the bird to Leafs nation, just being silly in the moment. Could he have just avoided doing this, yes, but the outcry from it was beyond dramatic.

Sports journalism is nothing more than paparazzi and tabloids for men, so I get his frustration.
Don’t know if it’s always been like this and I was just too young to notice but it’s just constant drama now.

Must be frustrating for him to watch the team struggle and not be able to help

Yeah but Twitter told me this means hes part of a rotten core, doesn’t care, and we should move him so we can use his cap space to get 5 3rd liners that add grit to the bottom 6.
The fact that people were actually up in arms about him flipping off the camera is deeply unserious. The fact he needed to post this is that laughable.

With the game ofc, not Willy being Willy.
I think it’s funny that we can hear players swearing on hot mics all game long, but one finger and everyone has trauma
That is a great response!
If people were honestly bothered by that, they really need to go touch some grass.
Willy is not the problem. He actually shows up. I don’t blame him in the slightest.
lol i don’t think anyone besides losers were offended by what he did. he was obviously just playing around. i flip off cameras too sometimes
Why in the world is he apologizing?
Clearly he just was annoyed the camera was on him.
It’s a non story.
And they wonder why no one wants to play here lol
I missed the game, what happened? Camera went to the box. And he gave the finger?
*looks at team’s recent record*
Yeah, I’m also looking forward to Willy being on the ice again
putting the heart hand emoji over the middle finger is extremely funny so he is forgiven
I respect the response, better than acting like it never happened or like he doesn’t care 💙

Willy will save us
People were upset?
