Anne Murray is a Canadian treasure. Anne Murray is a Toronto Maple Leafs fan.
And like a Toronto Maple Leaf fan, Anne Murray is not happy with her favourite team.

The Maple Leafs, of course, suffered a humiliating and possibly coach-dismissing defeat at the hands of the Nashville Predators. The ugly 9-2 loss – at home – was the lowest point of the Leafs season so far.
The famous Canadian folk singer had enough!

Man, even Anne Murray’s scoring on the Leafs tonight.
This isn’t the first time Murray has backhanded the Leafs this season. If you’ll recall Toronto’s 4-1 loss to Boston back on Oct. 25, in which they used garbage time to catch up on shots and convert a goal, Murray sent out another tweet putting down the Blue and White. Anne Murray on Twitter
Murray’s Twitter feed simply describes her as “singer/author.” Perhaps it’s time to start a comedy career.
Alas, the Maple Leafs seem to have that market cornered.
Chin up Leafs fans. Here are some more words from Murray through the song “You’ve Got A Friend.” Hopefully they make you feel a little better knowing she’s on your side.
When you’re down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
