Maple Leafs honour the Argonauts ahead of Wednesday's tilt against the Flames



The Toronto Argonauts captured their 17th Grey Cup in franchise history with a thrilling 27-24 comeback victory over the Calgary Stampeders last weekend in Ottawa.



It's been an exciting week and a half for members of the Argonauts as they’ve already taken part in a victory parade, visited the mayor’s office, and even paid a visit to a Toronto Raptors game, and they still have a few things in store.

On Wednesday night the Argonauts were honoured ahead of the Toronto Maple Leafs’ game and got to drop the puck for the ceremonial faceoff, and it couldn’t have come at a better time as the Leafs were playing host to the Calgary Flames of all teams.

Matt Black, Lirim Hajrullahu, Tyler Holmes and Shawn Lemon were all in attendance for the ceremonial puck drop and were rocking some custom threads for the event.



Based off of Lemon’s Instagram post earlier in the day, it looks like the Argonauts’ defensive lineman was in charge of bringing the Grey Cup with him to the Air Canada Centre, and it looks like it got there in one piece.
