The Dallas Stars are notorious for mocking their opponents in the arena on Twitter. It's what they do, even if their fans have to suffer in the process. So it was no surprise on Tuesday when they made a joke at the Toronto Maple Leafs' expense.
Jose Bautista’s bat flip is so legendary, NHL teams are using it to mock each other

Bautista launched that glorious bat flip against the Texas Rangers as the Blue Jays rallied back and eventually went on eliminate the Rangers. The Maple Leafs and Stars went back and forth a few more times, but really this is just an opportunity to remember and cherish how great that bat flip was.
