Moral victories are great and all but it sure would be good to rack up some actual victories. The Leafs played a good road game but were once again torpedoed by the man in the toothy mask. Since it's not Halloween we can dispense with the horror metaphors

The last time the Leafs made the trek to Montreal they picked up a future NHL superstar. The time before can be seen above and it featured the complete dismantling of the Habs by Nikolai Kulemin - Mikhail Grabovski - Alexei Ponikarovsky. Tonight will be the first time that Mike

It just always comes up. Sorry Sabres fans. GO FLYERS! is associated with wildly offensive and stupid statements but what about Go Sabres!? Well, after the jump, the two brains behind Go Flyers bring you the new hotness: PPP: Oh man, let's do another post. Go Sabres can

Well, that didn't quite end the way in which we would have liked. The Leafs were unable to shut the door after they picked up the lead with seven minutes left in the game. Also, Gustavsson's save percentage wasn't over .900 even after making

The Leafs' defensive play has been spectacular for the most part right up until Francois Beauchemin passed the puck to the open left wing. Sure, Lee Stempniak is a ninja but that doesn't mean that because there is open ice that he is there. Craig MacTavish just

NSFW - THAT Full Metal Jacket Clip I didn't see that movie until OAC English. Dear God, what a crazy flick. The Dallas Stars actually have a weird third jersey with horns on it that would likely confuse the homophobic Gunnery Sergeant Hartman. Anyway, the Leafs take on

I don't want to be the cause of any self-defenestration but the Toronto Maple Leafs upcoming schedule looks as follows: Maple Leafs Schedule Next 5 Games @ Vancouver Sat 10/24 7:00 PM EDT @ Anaheim Mon 10/26 10:00 PM EDT @ Dallas Wed 10/28 8:00

From The Toronto Marlies: Jeff Jackson, General Manager of the Toronto Marlies, announced today that the club has signed forward Mike Zigomanis to a professional try-out contract. Zigomanis, 28, skated in 22 games last season for the Pittsburgh Penguins, registering two goals and four assists for six points. The Toronto,

The Windsor Spitfires are poised to part ways with one prospect of the Toronto Maple Leafs but could be ready to add another. Third-year defenceman Jesse Blacker has returned to his Toronto home and requested a trade while right-winger Kenny Ryan has left Boston College with the school's

Toronto Maple Leafs 2nd round pick, 50th overall in the 2009 draft has decided to leave Boston College and will now join the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League. - Leafs247 Kenny Ryan was part of this past summer's draft class and at the draft he was

Our industrious and creative West Coast correspondent ran into technical difficulties and the East Coast USA office isn't at work so it fell to PPP Amalgamated Heavy Industries (Canada) to put up the FTB. Good thing Blurr did the heavy lifting. So without futher ado, your links: * The

The Toronto Maple Leafs fell 4-1 to the Colorado Avalanche which should come as no surprise to anyone that has ever had hope that the Maple Leafs would improve. The mittenstringers are already talking about the worst start in franchise history but as 1967ers pointed out the team started 1-12-3

Yesterday On October 8th (I wrote this post originally on the 9th) James had a piece looking at where the money was spent by the top five teams last year. Robot Godzilla previously took a look at how the Leafs' spending on defencemen, forwards, and goalies compared to the

Greg Millen catches a lot of flak around these parts for his dogged determination to show that there has never been a goal scored that has been the fault of the goaltender. However, before Ron Wilson's presser last night he brought up a great point which the coach

For whatever reason, the Penguins looked downright lousy last year vs. Toronto, losing their last three meetings, including the final one that resulted in Michel Therrien’s firing. - Tony, The Confluence It's certainly not rocket science to figure out why the Maple Leafs won three of four

After a trip across the Atlantic to Scotland to play the Hamilton Bulldogs the Toronto Marlies kicked off their season on Sunday (yay timely recaps!) and did so in conjunction with an outreach initiative aimed at local minority groups: Burke was joined by Marlies coach Dallas Eakins and several players,

We stunk. We had no offence at all. I mean, that was almost embarrassing from seven or eight guys who we are counting heavily on. They only showed up when it was too late (a third-period Matt Stajan power-play goal). Playing on the perimeter, not wanting the puck, not willing

Look, I love Leafs fans. Three "Go Leafs Go" chants started on my walk from my car to the bar last night and high fives were given out like free candy from the back of Carey Price's van. There was a lot of good to see

Some of you that were with us last year are familiar with Pick SPG and the rest of you are currently scratching your heads. Basically, this is a simple game for those that are not in one of the fantasy pools to play that will provide bragging rights to one

We had huge plans of doing previews for all of the individual players but then Burke made some trades and there was actual competition for positions and then players were sent to the Marlies and then, well, life happened. So instead, you get three previews that'll go by

Mats Sundin has officially retired from the NHL after 18 seasons. The player that always gave his all for the Leafs has finally admitted that his body can no longer stand up to the rigours of an NHL season. It's a decision that was relatively quick in coming
