Last night's game; 10 times better than a shrimp taco
That's right; a shrimp taco. Not just any shrimp taco, a Taco Bell shrimp taco. I don't know when it began, but apparently in America you can now buy of of these at your local Taco Bell. Who in the Taco Bell hierarchy thought this was

The Trade Deadline Can Be A Confusing Time
So last night saw Alexei Ponikarovsky shipped off to Pittsburgh for prospect Luca Caputi (sweet name) and defenseman Martin Skoula (salary dump). First it was Pittsburgh, then it wasn't, then it was LA, but maybe someone else, then Pittsburgh again, repeat ad naseum.
I can only imagine the

Mortality My Old Friend, Nice to See You Again
So unless you haven't been following the Olympic hockey tournament, you know that Canada fell to the US by a score of 5-3 last night. This was largely in part due to Ryan Miller giving a better performance for Team USA than Martin Brodeur did for Team Canada.
Must Be Something in the Hot Chocolate
I don't KNOW what it is about Switzerland, but somehow they have Team Canada's number when it comes to International hockey. Even though the game ended with a shootout win for Canada, that was not a win you'll be seeing celebrated today, and one
Finally, the Olympics Have Begun
So the Olympics finally started for real last night with the beginning of the men's hockey tournament, and boy did it start off well for Teams USA and Canada. The USA was competent in their 3-1 win over Switzerland, but looking shaky at times and made rudimentary errors.

Maple Leafs v. Sharks: Three the Hard Way
After coming out flat to start the second and falling behind 2-1, the Leafs regained their first period speed, hustle, and intensity with Philthy Phil Kessel potting a powerplay goal from Ponikarovsky to bring the Leafs to par. That's alliteration holmes.

Who Dat? Leafs Dat.
Hats off to the New Orleans Saints for winning Superbowl 44 and saving us from hearing more asinine comparisons of Peyton Manning to Tom Brady and other legendary quarterbacks. Although this probably will prevent Manning from appearing on SNL again; which was hilarious.

Maple Leafs v. Devils: The Rubber Match
In Game 1, the Leafs came off the ropes Rumble in the Jungle style to force the extra period but couldn't squeak out a decision victory. I blame the judges for this.

You'll Never Guess Who Got Traded Last Night
So I wanted to write some neat little blurb here about the Kovalchuk trade, but then that little blurb ballooned into what is now over 700 words of a FanPost that I'll post later today/tonight. So be on the lookout for it.

Now That is Maple Leaf Hockey
Brian Burke needed last night's performance to keep the media from calling him a moron for trading away so many players, and boy did his new hires have their bosses back. Three new Leafs; three stars of the games. Dion Phaneuf smashed and punched people; Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped
