Tonight's home road game will decide a few season series and questions: * Can Matt Carkner beat Colton Orr not once but twice to earn a draw? * Are the S*nators over their flu? * Will not having Mike Fisher be their new excuse for not beating the 2nd worst

Well, I called this morning the worst of the year and it apparently rubbed off on the Leafs as they played their first truly horrible effort since the Carolina game. I said it about some other disappointing game but I won't be as upset if this is just

This is the worst morning of the year. We all lose one hour of sleep but that's not even the worst part. The next two days will feature forgotten appointments, dangerously sleepy people using dangerous machinery (including cars), and messed up PVRs. That last one is the worst.

Sometimes you decide to watch more TV Friday nights and you forget that SkinnyFish told you that he would be coaching some degenerates on the weekend. I also think he took their King, Chemmy, so this might be the preview too. Basically, two terrible teams that their fans hope have

The Toronto Maple Leafs triumphed over 4-3 over the Boston Bruins in Luca Caputi's home debut. The local boy started out slow, along with the rest of the team, but settled down as the game went on he grew into his expected role. He also tallied his first

Unfortunately, the NHL standings only love winners and the Leafs are not likely to finish in that category very often over the final 17 games of the season. Right now the Toronto Maple Leafs are the Little Engine That Could before it could. They are the Big Bad Wolf in

Saturday mornings are a great time to lounge around and what better way to pass the time than to read about hockey. Also, as a sidenote, our friend across the Atlantic, Mattblack, will have to take another sabbatical from his role. He is a very important person in London and

The trade deadline has come and gone and once again Toronto Maple Leafs fans are left wishing for more. Brian Burke was able to bring in some extra draft picks as well as a forward prospect while moving out a couple of players that had no future with the team.

According to TSN the Toronto Maple Leafs have traded Alex Ponikarovsky to the Pittsburgh Penguins so that he can follow in Hal Gill's footsteps in picking up a Stanley Cup ring. In return, the Toronto Maple Leafs will be receiving forward prospect Luca Caputi and defenceman Martin Skoula.

There is not much I can say about this game that has not been said in better words. One team was expected to be here and the other is the shock of the tournament. While one was dismantling their co-favourites the other was getting the job done on the back

Niklas Hagman is exactly the kind of UFA signing that the Toronto Maple Leafs should be looking to sign this summer if they are going to fill any of the forward spots to keep the kids developing. He had had increasing success but he was still trending upwards. He signed
