David Menzies is Human Garbage
This is an absolutely unreal article published by the Huffington Post; "You Can't Hide Behind the Gay Flag Brian Burke"
Question: When do you know that a public figure really needs a P.R. boost?
Answer: When that person wraps himself in the rainbow flag.
That&
Game 1: Amerks at Marlies
Ricoh Coliseum, Toronto, ON
7PM Leafs TV
I'll help you get the jokes out of the way now: it's been a long time since we've seen the NHL playoffs in Toronto and while most of our rivals (lol Montreal, lol Buffalo) are currently playing
4/13 Playoffs Open Thread
Detroit up 2-0, Pittsburgh up 2-1, New Jersey up 3-0. WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
Hope and the Fifth Overall Pick
Don't know if I've ever seen Brian Burke quite so quiet or downtrodden. Burke sat almost slouched in his chair during the lottery. Rarely looked up. Unusual to see him that way. - @JonasTSN1050
It's clear that the fortunes of the Leafs are taking
Leafs 4 - Sabres 3: Tank Derailed, but Sabres Season Ruined
Thanks to @RJOuttaSoCal for getting a screen cap of someone giving Sabres fans the international signs of friendship, thanks to the Leafs for ruining Buffalo's miracle run. The Leafs are tied in points with the Islanders, but stay in the draft lottery by virtue of having played one

In this week's PPP Podcast we tried really hard to be positive. Naturally that involved not talking about the Leafs. Tune in for:

In this week's PPP Podcast we tried really hard to be positive. Naturally that involved not talking about the Leafs. Tune in for:

Bruins 4 Leafs 0 - Got 'Em Right Where We Want 'Em
This overwhelming sense of negativity towards the Leafs is baffling to me. I think you guys should view this team with a more positive outlook. To that end I've made a new game day thread where we can all agree that the Toronto Maple Leafs are a talented
FLA 5 TOR 2: We're Waltzing Our Way to the Bottom of the Barrel Tonight
Not a lot left to say about this team. Enjoy some tunes after the jump I guess.
Leafs Lose 39th "Must Win" Game
It's not terribly surprising that after playing an OT game in Toronto last night, and flying to DC for a matinee game (and losing an hour to DST as the cherry on top) the Leafs would be flat today. They're under .500 PTS% for the first
The Crossroads
The Leafs have been a truly wretched hockey club for a month and a half now but because no one in front of them wants to win they're six points back of eighth and playing them today. A Leafs win puts them two points behind the teams tied
Pens 3 Leafs 2 #GreatestTankBattles
Honestly regardless of how optimistic you are about the Leafs it's probably time to admit that they're headed for a good draft pick. Props to Phil Kessel for scoring again, I look forward to morons like Feschuk running our only good player out of town. Good
Leafs 4 Bruins 5: Last One Out Turn Off the Lights
Kessel scored on Thomas, the Leafs D looked awful, Jonas Gustavsson didn't play his worst game as a Leaf but I wouldn't call him "solid" tonight, pretty much a typical game against Boston.
The thing that sucks about this year and most post-lockout Leafs
Overpaying Mikhail Grabovski
Mikhail Grabovski re-upped with the Leafs for five years at $5.5M today, prompting the entire world to shout "overpayment" in unison.
The fact of the matter is that despite not having a reputation as a two way center Mikhail Grabovski is one of the best two way
PPP Podcast 17: We're Suddenly on Schedule
[iTunes] [Direct Link] [Podcast RSS Feed]
We're trying really hard to do this weekly, so to facilitate that we're shortening the podcast. We're trying to do about 20-25 minutes of interesting fresh content so that you can mainline it. Bet you didn't
Afternoon Procrastination Station, Take 2
It's just like the last one of these but now you losers on the mobile app can actually see it. Thank me in the comments.
Leafs 3 Habs Suck
Season on life support, with Mikhail Grabovski's two goals holding the plug into the socket. Matt Frattin had a goal and two assists skating with Grabbo and Clarke MacArthur. Jonas Gustavsson shut the door on the Horriblants. Losing streak over.
PPP Podcast 16: Ron Wilson Got Canned
[iTunes] [Direct Link] [Podcast RSS Feed]
Podcast episode 16 is alive just in time for Ron Wilson to get fired! We talked about canning him in the podcast and at the time (two weeks ago...) I still felt like Wilson didn't have a lot of talent around him.
Goodbye Ron Wilson
Friends,
We're gathered here today to say goodbye to a great man, or at least a man. Ron Wilson may be gone with exactly 100 games left on his contract but I think we all agree it was time.
Say goodbye to fronting:
Say goodbye to our head
1-9-1 Is A Joke
Credit to Down Goes Brown for the title, he read it in a newspaper like a hundred years ago or something (I can't remember ever reading a newspaper except for the USA Today they give you at crummy hotels).
Once again the Leafs were outgoaled. So the team
Welcome Back Tank Nation
There's nothing left to say, the Leafs have done it again. This is a poorly constructed team, a poorly coached team, and a team with poor players.
Keith Aulie Traded to Tampa
TSN just announced that the Toronto Maple Leafs have traded Keith Aulie to Tampa. No idea on the return yet, stay tuned. Coming back is RW Carter Ashton.
More analysis is available in our full post here.
Mikhail Grabovski Trade Rumors
On TSN and Twitter tonight Darren Dreger announced:
Offer for Grabovski is for a 2nd rnd pick and prospect. Could get more. Still hope to re-sign him.
I'm guessing the gap in signing Mikhail Grabovski is that Burke is looking for somewhere around $5M and Grabovski's
