Toronto, led by Dominic Moore, Carlo Colaiacovo, and Justin Pogge, earned Coke a lot of money last night. We're going to run a piece later today with reactions to the game from Buffalo's perspective.
On a side note, yours truly would like to publicly eat some humble pie. You may remember me bashing the free game as a crummy publicity stunt, but by all accounts last night the ACC was jumping, there was free soda and tshirts being given away, and the Leafs worked their asses off to remind us all why we're hockey fans. I'd also like to eat some crow in response to hating Dominic Moore, if he plays half that well all season he'll have shut me up.
On to the links:
- Steve@Hockeyanalysis reminds you that this was only a preseason win, and wonders if Jiri Tlusty will get solid playing time this year.
- Norte has a game recap, I think.
- Torontosportsmedia reports that last night the ACC was a-rockin, so don't go a-knockin'.
