"I don't think any player will be the face of this franchise, I think the the logo will be the face of this franchise."

I think I creamed.

 
Yeah, if there's anything to take away from this year's Stanley Cup results it's that having a really famous star is probably a bad thing.

You've got to be kidding me.  ::)

The Leafs had him and traded him away! Not every player works out in all situations.

That's it, I'm going to get a jersey with the name "LOGO" on the back.

No names! No numbers! That's showboating moustachioed talk!

To be fair, I think his answer to the question strikes me more as an attempt to protect Matthews from the burden of the franchise-saviour label.
 
Personally I think you guys are confusing team first and a franchise player within that team over face of the franchise, but that's just me.

Who's Matthews?

I don't think Lou gets a whole lot of say in who the media decides is the face of the franchise.

Are you sure? What if he doesn't let him wear the official Face of the Franchise sash? He'll still get the one Get Out of the Penalty Box Free card per game, right?
 
I totally agree with Lou!

Not one single player can be the face of the franchise. It's the Logo, first and foremost!

You know you are in trouble when an individual player becomes bigger than the team as a whole!

It's a team game! You win as a team, and, you lose as a team!
