| Period | Type | Scorer | Assist | Assist |
| 1 | EV | L. Stempniak | D. Moore | |
| 2 | PP |
N. Antropov |
||
| 2 | EV | D. Moore | N. Antropov | A. Ponikarovsky |
| 3 | EV | P. Kubina |
Stempniak's first goal as a Leaf comes on a deflection off his skate into the net. Antropov scores a goal off Biron trying to make a pass out of his crease and completely blowing it. Dominic Moore stuffs a puck home on a breakaway resulting from him leaving the penalty box, and Kubina seals the deal with an absolute laser beam from the point that hit two posts and went in.
The Leafs worked hard tonight and really dug out a win against a surging Flyers club. The penalty kill tonight was excellent. Philly brought the fifth ranked PP in the league, and Toronto absolutely dominated them.
Vesa Toskala was solid again, just like in the Ottawa game, making 28 saves on 30 shots. The second goal was in no way his fault; the play started with Tomas Kaberle turning the puck over on Philly's blue line, and making no strong attempt to get the puck back before Kubina made a soft turnover exiting the defensive zone and the Flyers executed a very precise cross crease pass tap in goal.
The first goal wasn't really his fault either, with Asham taking a shot that Toskala stopped, Asham ran into the goaltender, and Toronto's defenders (Finger and Kubina) didn't stop Richards from coming down into the zone and firing the puck into the net. It probably should have been goaltender interference, but that's how things go sometimes.
A good effort from the Leafs tonight translates to two points on the scoreboard. Brian Burke had to have liked what he saw, because I sure did. Not bad for a rebuilding team.

I love that you’re so pissed at him. As if he should have taken a deal out of town just to please you.

I would rather he does what ever the hell he wants to do.
I hope he goes to Vancouver, or Montreal, or Chicago, or anywhere. It doesn’t matter. I hope he wins where ever he goes.
He’s not coming back to Toronto. We are shit. There’s no point for him to come back here. Why would a 37 year old who’s looking to only play a few more months come back here. It’s a dead issue. He’s going else where, and all the power to him.
MF 37 is absolutely right. Tucker deserves the hatred of Leafs fans, not Sundin, but it’s the other way around in this fucked up town. After all Sundin did for this team, people like you are still pissed off because he wouldn’t leave town. It is absolutely unbelievable.

It’s hard not to think about the return Sundin would have commanded. Also if Sundin had waived, would Kaberle have dug in? Carter would look pretty good with a maple leaf on his chest right now.
That’s not to say that Sundin doesn’t deserve respect, he has earned the love and respect of Leaf fans.

If the Leafs didn’t release Wellwood, he wouldn’t have nine goals. Let’s say he would have somewhere between zero and zero.
Besides, the Leafs would have released him after his failure to get in shape the second go around (as evidenced by Vancouver’s minor league demotion where the Canucks only called him up when Demitra’s grandma body gave out).
