They did it in the preseason, but that was the preseason. Now, they need to do it one more time with feeling. Which they did. Well, kinda. I’m not sure whether to be happy that the defense was actually contributing, or worried that our forwards were kind of asleep at … Read the rest

… Quite like that of a Leafs win. Unfortunately, however, it would have been their own undoing if they didn’t, since it was against Atlanta, of all teams, and well, let’s just say Toronto has had their number, ever since the, like, 1 time they won in… oh… 2003 or … Read the rest

Somehow, that doesn’t quite seem all that… uh, well, fair. But, as my brother shockingly put it best, we choked. Again. And a 4 2 lead ended up being 4 4 going into a shootout. Guh. We can’t keep doing that and expecting to win… thank the gods we got … Read the rest

That makes two games in a row I couldn’t watch all the way through. And I didn’t even watch the last one from the beginning, either… I did, however, watch enough of it to see both Toronto goals in a less than thrilling losing effort. I’m trying to find something … Read the rest

No scoring through pretty much half the game, then a combined 6 goals through the other half, with a second goal for the Blue Jackets coming in the last minute of the game, but still in a losing effort. That’s what I call a hockey game, folks. And I even … Read the rest

Of course, after that, they all went to shit, and my Leafs eventually work their way into an ass kicking the likes of which I did not want to see on a night when Sundin was being honoured for the fact he 1: scored his 500th career goal, 2: scored … Read the rest

5 4 Leafs. Enough said. Sundin’s 500th career goal. Also enough said. Sundin’s hat trick. That’s why he’s the captain, folks. Long story short: Calgary is my bitch. *nods*
