About Thayne »

Thayne Hallyburton is a passionate Toronto Maple Leaf, Toronto Raptor, San francisco 49er and Toronto Blue Jays fan. Thayne also loves watching lacrosse, motocross, snocross and NASCAR racing.

In his spare time he can be seen stock car racing at Barrie Speedway in the summer and in the winter he travels throughout Ontario, Quebec and the Northern states at snocross races.

Thayne's friends refer to him as the human sports encyclopedia because he keeps completely pointless stats in his head and makes sure everyone knows them. He can resite almost every 20 man roster in the National Hockey League and his all-round hockey knowledge is sickening.

Hey Thayne

The Raptors have made another move however, I don’t agree with this one!
Here’s my take on the player they should have acquired Jodie Meeks.
Comments and critiques are always welcomed

Mitch here Thayne-No you you have it wrong I never write or comment to say I dislike a player and that goes for Crosby to.
Crosby is a great young player but has some discipline to learn and it will not only better his play but make him a better person.
Remember all great sports players should lead by example.
By the way Crosby comes from my neck of the woods.
You are right I think Malkin may go because I think there may be a personality clash between the two stars.
Have a Merry Christmas Thayne and keep up the good work.Take care.

I still thought it was a pretty intense game from my view, would have been much better if joe bowen was broadcasting it though (yes, im a biased leafs fan who likes his voice).

Fleury gave up half way through i think, yeah the leafs were lucky, but fleury gave up a lot of bad goals, one way or another it seemed like they were being deflected off of one stick and into the net every time. It just wasnt like fleury, ...

But take a look at that jeremy williams, i love how cherry was comparing his look to savaard, i feel like he looks more like casey affleck (ben afflecks bro)
That kids on fire

Bring in Pogge i say


and no crosby for me, he is one of the best players in the nhl, he just seems like a pretentious snob lol

Yeah we probably dont always see that
i dont think i can remember the last time they get all excited after scoring a goal
The junior games are so fun to watch because their all fighting to make it into the nhl so they're basically all over the place when it comes to the game. Hedman is crazy huge, its nuts.
Game tomorrow in mississauga, that should be interesting.
i sometimes have a hard time believing it lol
crazy men...

yes yes thats what i meant

Im sorry lol
my mind is not in hockey at the moment, its on the creepy stalker type kid

Anyway, but yeah it was a really good game, i think i liked it a lot because it was just so fast and a lot more physical than a lot of the NHL games you see nowadays
Tavares is amazing and soooo youngg

I dont know about you but i couldnt take my eyes off of Hedman, he has a serious love affair with his stick

Hey

Yeah it was an amazing game, a lot of people i know are there, my friends are trying to get tickets for the game in ottawa. Hodgson plays for the brampton Medallions, which my friends dad owns, so its a little easier for us

What guy are you talking about when you say "f*** that guy?"

The guy who keeps writing on my board is starting to really scare me lol

yea you are nuts

but hockey is hockey and i wouldnt miss it for the world so its pretty understandable

The basketball game was good, well besides them losing to the mavs of course
Raptors games are always entertaining i find
But id rather go to a hockey game instead

Excited?

haha 4 different goalies, with toskala going back in the net in the third lol

that was funny

for a second i thought the leafs would actually come back and end up winning it
but i should know better lol

As for the snow, its not good
i got places to be people to see
Its hard to go anywhere in this snow, it's pretty slippery
Is it still snowing there?
