The Leafs still don’t have an officially losing record.
In spite of the fact it went to a shootout on the 4th, and again just yesterday, both of which didn’t net them the extra point. I’m starting to worry about Toronto’s shootout skills yet again, but… at least we still managed to come away with 4 points in 3 … Read the rest

You’d think it was Christmas.
Between the baking, shopping, and just generally lazing around that’s been done today, and the fact in just under 2.5 hours there will be hockey on at least one TV set, you’d certainly get that impression. But, no, this is just our premature thanksgiving dinner, done tonight rather than Monday … Read the rest

Do the Leafs need another center?
Someone obviously thinks we do. It’s being circulated that they’ve come to some kind of an agreement with Boyd Devereaux, who used to play for the Coyotes and before that the Red Wings. Well, I guess we’ll find out eventually if we need yet another body plugging the hole at … Read the rest

Holy shittacos they actually won! Convincingly!
Unless, of course, you wouldn’t consider 6 nothing to be a convincing win. Funnily enough, though, I don’t find as much satisfaction in that win as I thought I would. I find perhaps a little bit more satisfaction in what the Senators coach said after the game. “We play Saturday … Read the rest

Could mister Harper be a Leafs fan?
He won’t say. But, there be speculation afoot, and his being all smiles when they scored last night is certainly fueling that fire. Can’t say it’d surprise me, seeing as he *is* Toronto born, but… the irony of it is just too amusing. I wonder if this will spark the … Read the rest

Well, it was still a horrible loss…
But at least this time we didn’t just roll over and die. I mean, it sucked royally, including the empty net goal in the last minute of the game which just further goes to show Alfredson can’t score with a goalie actually minding the net, but considering I’m used to, … Read the rest

But it’s okay to fracture a guy’s foot, you know.
Okay, so explain to me this, since it’s gone over my head entirely. How is it that, for taking a golf swing at Bell’s foot, Ottawa’s Dany Heatley gets off pretty much unskathed, while Bell gets to spend the first few games of the preseason on the injured list, yet … Read the rest

Finally!
The preseason is over and we can actually get down to the playing for real, for a bloody change. Even if it did end with a second loss in a row to Detroit. But it was a shootout, anyway. That’s, uh… well, progress. And they weren’t shut out in the … Read the rest

Thank God it’s the preseason.
Otherwise, last night’s loss would have been exceedingly hard to swallow. I mean, that it’s the preseason doesn’t make it any less of a bitch, but at least I don’t have to resort to multiple 4-letter words and the like. I’d criticise, but… well, there isn’t much to criticise, really. … Read the rest

If ever there was a reason to ditch Tellqvist…
I was forced to watch it last night. Absolutely, absolutely, *brutal*! I mean, not that he got all that much help defensively with the exception of the likes of McCabe and Brown, who I think wants to try and take Domi’s place after his retirement, but… still. The preseason’s half … Read the rest
