The Toronto Maple Leafs very own “Island of Misfit Toys” was created when the organization made defenseman Stephane Robidas disappear once they placed him on injured reserve prior to the start of last season.
This type of loop hole has Lou Lamoriello written all over it, he somehow got Robidas to see that he indeed have a “knee injury” and had to be placed on IR for the entire season.
With this loophole-Lou move, a running gag had been born.
The term “Robidas Island” is one of my favourite things to come out of this years @MapleLeafs season.
