Pull Up a Seat


Toronto ON

I couldn't do a post from Canada without including a hockey photo!

BENCHED
Removed from a game or removed from play; can be applied to any situation where one is not permitted to participate in an activity.

Derived from the sporting world where players often sit on a bench when not playing. A player can be benched for many reasons including but not limited to: playing or performing poorly or sucking, breaking a rule, disobeying the coach or leader, unsportsmanlike conduct, not following the game plan, showing up late, etc.



Known as Legends' Row it reminds fans of the glory days of the Maple Leafs.

Ted Kennedy, Darryl Sittler, Johnny Bower, Borje Salming, George Armstrong, Syl Apps, Mats Sundin, Dave Keon, Turk Broda and Tim Horton, Wendel Clark, Frank Mahovlich, Red Kelly and Charlie Conacher and the bench is full.
