The Leafs' Jekyll and Hyde season continued Tuesday night as they once again snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Actually, considering that the Leafs do not really feature a refined Dr. Jekyll-like game nor do they ever exhibit the Mr. Hyde-like tendency to violence a more apt comparison

The Leafs host the Boston Bruins tonight in what is shaping up to be a horrifically boring game. The Bruins tend to love to plant five players in front of the net while they wait for the Leafs to make a mistake. Unfortunately, the Leafs discovered how well that strategy

What was the extent of my developing shock as the game continued? After spending a day trying to keep 8 kids from either killing themselves or each other I completely forgot that they were all in bed a scant 50 feet away as I celebrated Darcy Tucker's powerplay

Hooray! The Leafs get to play host to the regular season juggernaut that is the ottawa senators. What a great way to end a losing streak. Of course the team will come out flying and give 110% because why would they do otherwise? Here are some predictions for the game:

Thanks to my brilliant foresight I was at a relative's house for dinner last night. By the team the wonderful meal had ended and I made it back to my apartment the Leafs had pulled back within one and were headed to the third period. Unfortunately, getting home

God, I hate playing the Bruins. The Leafs depend on the cycle, rebounds, and crashing the net to score goals. The Bruins like to defend with 5 guys within arm's length of the net. When the two styles collide the Leafs struggle. On the bright side, if the

The beauty of Sitemeter is that I can see which search terms have been used to find this site. It's no surprise that they have generally included Jiri Tlusty's name and some spin on naked pictures. Unfortunately for those seeking a little flash of skin, I

Just got back from the game and needless to say I am not and never will be a card carrying member of the Bryan 'Handlebars' McCabe fan club. Of all the players to allow to score the game winning goal it makes me sick to think that Mike

Tonight the Leafs host the Habs as they look to pick up their third straight win over their old enemy. Four Habs Fans were nice enough to participate in today's 5 Questions With... feature. Carey Price will be getting the start since the Leafs are Cristobal Huet'

It's game day for the Leafs so that can only mean one thing: it's time for 5 Questions. Once again the lads from Four Habs Fans were kind enough to oblige. So far they are 0-1 in predicting Habs wins so I hope that after tonight&

James Mirtle has a look at the league standings and the strength of the six divisions at the 20% mark of the season. That inspired me to try to find ways to look at the standings which would make the Leafs look good. Turns out that short of just replacing

Other commitments prevented me from watching this game but it was probably for the best as the stress would have probably killed me. I hate Sean Avery and judging from the description of his antics he was on top of his game. Belak especially was raring to go: "The

The Leafs host the New York Rangers tonight in the Hall of Fame game. The 3-0 win last night should provide some momentum for the Leafs but they are playing at home where there is apparently a memory wipe machine that erases all notions of defence from the players'

Thanks to D.O from Die By The Blade for the graphic and for taking part in today's 5 Questions feature. This will be the Leafs' first visit to HSBC since the now infamous Own Goal by Bryan McCabe. It will actually mark the return of McCabe

Today's installment of 5 Questions features my SBNation colleague D.O. the brains behind Die By The Blade. He also returned the favour so be sure to check it out. 1. The Leafs have scored 4 goals on the Sabres in 6 of the last 9 regular season

The Wishlist will show up at random times before Christmas. I'll highlight things that I come across that might make appropriate Christmas gifts for different members of the Toronto Maple Leafs. If you find anything appropriate feel free to send me a link. First up is The Boss:

[Note: I didn't put up a poll for player of the game but if someone can make a case for a player actually deserving it then put it in the comments. Otherwise, "No One Worthy" is going to jump into a tie for the lead] Last

If the guest of today's 5 Questions didn't tip you off before the Leafs will be visiting the Sc'ank in Kanata to take on hockey's version of the Patriots minus the titles, the large fan base, the brilliant coach, the rehabilitated superstar,

Today's 5 Questions With...features Senators Lost Cojones from Five For Smiting who presumably will continue his search indefinitely as Giggles remains a main cog on the team. As always, thanks to him for playing along and doing his part to dispel the myth that ottawa is the

Last year the Leafs missed the playoffs by 1 point. While you could point to any number of terrible games as the one that cost the team a playoff spot three came against the Leafs' arch rivals. The irony of that quote below is that in all three of

The Leafs trudge into the stripper capital of Canada for their game against the Habs after an excellent road performance resulted in a 3-2 loss. Be sure to check out tonight's installment of 5 Questions With... that features the lads at Four Habs Fans who almost made it

Tonight the Leafs head into the Phone Booth to face the Habs who are once again burning up the league pre-Christmas. Today's questions were put to the fine gentlemen, and I put that lightly since they are all lawyers, that comprise Four Habs Fans. They have done their

The best laid plans of mice and men eh? Despite taking the game to the Devils for the majority of the game the Leafs managed to let their long suppressed nature emerge at the most inopportune time (lazy on a powerplay? Those points get you paid!) and let the game

The Leafs are back in action as they travel to the Swamp...err...The Rock to face their nemesis the New Jersey Devils and their gutless puke enforcer. After the now infamous hit, the suspension now seems ridiculous in light of Downie and Boulerice, Tomas Kaberle missed 8 games. The

Ahead of Kaberle's return to the site of his near-death experience Jeremy of Devils Daily was kind enough to play along and submit himself to my questions: 1. Just before the playoffs started last year Lou Lamoriello decided to jump behind the bench and replace Claude Julien because
