From Beauchemin to Stalberg, we're taking a look at and grading (please read the criteria below) the 2009-10 season for every player who laced 'em up for the Maple Leafs for a significant number of games during the campaign, with an eye towards 2010-11. That means only

Dion Phaneuf has been named the seventeenth captain in Toronto Maple Leafs history and he'll have enormous shoes to fill. Two of our last three captains have their names hanging from the rafters and the third will soon. Wendel Clark and Doug Gilmour took the team to two

Visible to the left there is our new captain Dion Phaneuf rocking the new Leafs jersey. I'll add more pics to the post as they come but the 93 style shoulder patch is clearly visible along with the drawstring and two stripes have been added to the bottom

Agenda: 1. Add two stripes to jersey. Also add shoulder patches to make replicas shitty thus justifying price gouging on authentics. 2. Promote guy at RBK who realized Leafs fans have been buying nothing but replicas. 3. Plan event to increase jersey sales. 4. Dion Phaneuf to be named Captain.

In the wake of Chicago's Cup win last night I have a few questions. Not about Pronger's puck stealing or Keith's upcoming dental work, I want to know what the deal is with Damien Cox. Too funny. Leaf fans already bitter that media will

The big news today is that agent JP Barry dropped Kirill Kabanov as a client. Kabanov's draft stock is absolutely plummeting following discussion that he has a bad attitude. Amidst all those burnt bridges this season, Kabanov’s stock for the 2010 draft plummeted from the top five

The Blue Light Refreshment Duo Trio wants you to come party with them* at Duo HQ. You could win a trip for you and a friend to party with the Labatt Blue girls (who I'm sure have interesting hobbies) and 100 other partygoers by buying specially marked cases

As pointed out by our diligent links post maker the Leafs have likely passed on signing prospect Joel Champagne which means he will go back into the entry draft. As a blogger I feel like it's my job to ask "why?". Champagne finished with 13 points

Who likes to chat about hockey?

The Leafs have hired ex-Tampa Bay ass't GM Claude Loiselle to replace Jeff Jackson according to the CBC iDesk. Jeff Jackson was involved with running the Toronto Marlies last season. On the surface this a fairly uninteresting move; we're bringing in a guy to the front

Per hockey.expressen.se: Wallin återvänder till Färjestad Which roughly translated means Rickard Wallin will not be returning to the Toronto Maple Leafs next season. Last season Wallin had 2 goals and 7 assists along with a -7 rating in 60GP to go along with a -1.2GVT. If you&

Every once in a while, we here at PPP Amalgamated Heavy Industries and Kitten Ranch LLC have the opportunity to do something special. We're lucky enough to have secured an interview with the man who took the Canadiens to their last conference finals Jacques Demers. My audio recorder

I'm sure all of you are familiar with Murphy's Law but since this post will likely make its way around the Montreal conciousness today I'll explain it. Murphy's Law says that whatever can go wrong will go wrong. If you left your

Because PPP can't blog anywhere but the Fanshots the task of today's FTB has fallen to me. If you're wondering why there wasn't an FTB yesterday it's because none of you wrote anything either of our FTB writers could find.

#4 Pittsburgh vs #8 Montreal Definitely rooting for Pittsburgh. Crosby needs to continue his legend at all costs. No other option. #6 Boston vs #7 Philadelphia As much as we all hate Philadelphia Karina nailed it this morning. Do you want Boston to have a shot at the Cup with

#1 San Jose vs #5 Detroit If San Jose loses this series, in light of last night, will the choke label be applied or do people view Detroit as a legitimate threat given their game seven torch job on Phoenix and their scorching post Olympic play? #2 Chicago vs #3

We've had some exciting developments in the Wendel Park saga. First off Torontoist mentioned us on Twitter: Contest to rename Sherbourne Park [http://bit.ly/axUVtj] is heating up! @felixpotvin campaigning for "Wendel Park" http://twitpic.com/1iwn9d Secondly the campaign was mentioned by WENDEL CLARK

You may remember this story from Puck Daddy, wherein a Leafs fan put his fan allegiance up on eBay: "I will remove all Leaf Memorabilia from my home and replace it with the team of choice of the winning bidder. I will root for my ‘new team' whenever
