I ate the Carolina Reaper because the Leafs scored a goal

So here we are — eight days since the Maple Leafs were eliminated from the NHL qualifiers.

And surprisingly, I’m still here making Leafs videos, but this video was not one I wanted to make.

I tweeted this in the second period of game two of the NHL qualifiers against the Columbus Blue Jackets. 30 seconds after I hit tweet, Auston Matthews deflected in a Zach Hyman pass and the rest was history.

Until now, where I actually eat the World’s Hottest Pepper. Yes, I’m crazy.
