Not much on the Leafs front again today, but still plenty of news around the league. Tampa came out firing on all cylinders last night, opening a three goal lead on the Bruins and never looking back.

Check out this morning's links after the jump, including a really good read on some of the league's struggling franchises from the New York Times.
