Maple Leafs at Godless Killing Machines
Toronto Maple Leafs at San Jose Sharks, Dec 2, 2008 10:30 PM EST
This is a brawl from the famous 1994 Western Conference Semi-Final when Johan Garpenlov had Bob Cole convinced that they were going to meet the Canucks.
The San Jose crowd has always been pretty ahead of the curve.

Do the fans still do the Shark-Chomp when they’re on the powerplay?

One of my fondest memories was Robbie Alomar doing it on the way home from third base. Good times. Good times indeed.

fun shark facts ...
When you call them “killing machines” you aren’t kidding.
- They have multiple rows of teeth like a conveyor belt. When one is lost, another moves forward to take it’s place.
- Instead of scales, they have dermal denticles, so they even have teeth on their skin.
- Some species are not only live-bearing, but the embryos swim freely in utero and actually eat each other.
(Sand tiger sharks are one species known to commit such in utero siblicide.)
On the other hand, they aren’t vegetarians, so they have no reason to prey on Maple Leafs. :)
"A vacuum is a hell of a lot better than some of the stuff that nature replaces it with." -- Tennessee Williams
those are some fun facts indeed. Well done!
"Hootenanny? Well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny"
I wanted to be Eugenie Clark when I was younger – that was when I didn’t want to study volcanoes, venomous snakes, or fly hurricane hunter planes. Considering I apparently had a scientific death wish, it’s remarkable that I work in a nice, safe, quiet lab.
"A vacuum is a hell of a lot better than some of the stuff that nature replaces it with." -- Tennessee Williams
And did you know those facts already, or did you look ’em up special? Either way, kudos.
"Hootenanny? Well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny"
Had to double-check if it was sand tigers or bull sharks, but that was off the top of my head. I love Chondricthyes.

Crap!
Can I do anything to stop it? I don’t wanna be a shark. I don’t think they drink gin. Do they?
"Hootenanny? Well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny"
They probably could.
Tiger sharks have been found with car license plates in their stomachs, so sharks can ingest anything.
A drunk shark would be pretty funny, though. I’m picturing a hammerhead swimming lopsided and giggling.

Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing

I’m just worried about getting malaria. That’s why I drink gin and tonic so much. And I’m sticking to that.
"Hootenanny? Well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny"
and the side-effects from anti-Malaria medication are enough to make you drink, so really it’s a win-win.
When we were in India, all the westerners we met were surprised that we were actually taking our anti-malarial meds, but the mosquitos in Hyderabad made northern Ontario mosquitos look like pussies. They just came in wave after blood thirsty wave.

see, I tend to get swept up with boyos who start out charming and funny but turn into controlling, needing ego-stroking assholes. I’ve thought about getting a non-interesting boyfriend just to see if he turns into an asshole as an experiment

"But if someone so eager to engage into fist talk, we can always meet after season end in Minsk." (Mikhail Grabovski and a well-meaning but not particularly skillful translator)
To be honest
Any win this year is a pleasant surprise because we’ve been so indoctrinated that the Leafs would absolutely blow this year.
Back to back games
A blowout was bound to happen. Especially against the best team in hockey on the second game.
Back to back games is rough enough, but add in the time change and the goodness of the other team? it’s just all adding up to Leafs losing
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
In all honesty
The Leafs would have to have the deck REALLY stacked in their favour to take this one. The Sharks are flat-out stacked, top to bottom.
Big Smoke Sports - We Burn The Buds, Roll The Raps, and Smoke The Jays
I don’t get going with Vesa in back-to-back games either.
Cujo should have started against LA so Tosk was fresh for tonight (or the other way around).
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
I think it was a ride the hot hand issue…and since Vesa was playing well, I think it was the right move to stick with him.
We need Vesa to keep playing well…so gotta throw him back out there…and I figured he would be up for this game…(that’s what she said)
Also, Cujo sucks. Like, really sucks.
A Toronto sports blog, where we unequivocally and unapologetically support the home team...
Right
And of all the games, Wilson knew way beforehand that Vesa would start against his former team. This wasn’t even a question.
Cujo isn’t a viable option at this point. RW had to take the 2 points if possible last night, and couldn’t bring himself to follow up with Cujo tonight. Besides, he’d be crucified for “not riding the goalie with the hot hand.”

"But if someone so eager to engage into fist talk, we can always meet after season end in Minsk." (Mikhail Grabovski and a well-meaning but not particularly skillful translator)
I don’t mean to be a dick, but I hate this line of logic. If Cujo isn’t even an option, he needs to be bought out pronto.
Tosk needs to get hot, but he also needs to stay healthy. The last thing this club needs is one of it’s potentially major trade assets tearing a groin or tweaking a knee leading up to the trade deadline.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
In hindsight, Vesa probably shouldn’t have played. But by the sounds of it, the goals given up by Vesa weren’t due to fatigue. The team just got overwhelmed tonight and as a whole, didn’t have a full tank. And again, there was no way Vesa wasn’t going to play tonight. I wouldn’t be surprised if all the games Vesa wanted to play, he would have personally requested this one and circled it on his calendar.
he probably wanted to do it, but after last nights game, t may have been a bad idea
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
I don't know
I would have said after last night’s game, he was ember hot to justify a start against the hottest team in the league.
the Sharks are still a really good team though
Making stuff up since real Leafs news is far too depressing
Why not play Cujo against the Sharks, have him get bombed and force him one-step closer to retirement/waivers/buy-out?
The sens moved RIchardson from the blue line to the coaching ranks this week, no shame in the same happening for Cujo.
I just think player preferences be damned, the team needs to focus on obtaining peak value for tradeable assets.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
But what if Pogge doesn’t work out?
Can’t Vesa be the goalie of the future? The future being 2/3 years down the road?
A Toronto sports blog, where we unequivocally and unapologetically support the home team...
The short answer is no
I think there are two successful models for elite teams:
1. Have a truly elite goalie
2. Have a cheap-ass goalie like Osgoode, funnel the additioanl resources into talented two-way players and play a system that keeps the shots and chances way down.
Vesa ain’t elite and at $4M he ain’t cheap.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
I hate you for always being right, MF.
A Toronto sports blog, where we unequivocally and unapologetically support the home team...
I’m often wrong, just never in doubt.
And Pogge needs to play 60+ games in the AHL this year and then get five or so starts with the Leafs in Feb/March to help clarify the Leafs goaltending issues.
If he has the stuff, all the more reason to move Toskala.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
yeah i don’t want Pogge up here right now. he needs to play daily with the marlies.
i need to go to a marlies game.

Pogge doesn’t play in the bigs ’til the end of the year, as a reward for working hard and getting his shit together.

Well, by playing Toskala is boosting his trade value. We all know Cujo’s value, so it wouldn’t really matter to me for this game to play him. You have to at least show the team isn’t throwing the white flag before the game even starts.
Sorry if I’m not being clear, but what I’m worried about is over-playing Toskala. If Cujo is no longer an option Toskala is going to have to shoulder a heavy load. Historically he’s broken down whenever he’s played a lot of games. I’m more concerned about injury than I am with the results of any particular game.
The wins and losses don’t matter so much this year, asset management does.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
Thanks for clearing up your stance. And yes, asset management is extremely important, perhaps the most important thing this year’s team has to do. And I agree Toskie’s workload has to be managed. But because Toskala was so bad early this season, I’m thinking this was the best way to increase his value.
I just hope he doesn’t regress after getting bombed by the Sharks.
I just figure no one really expected the Leafs to win tonight so why take the risk and play a prime asset back to back?
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
My thought process here is that if the Leafs managed to pull off a win, this would have put Toskala back into that conversation of "top-tier’ goaltending. Perhaps, the reward seemed bigger than the risk.
I don’t think Toskala will regress after this game. Again, if he already knew the challenge was a tall task, I would assume Toskala and the Leafs will see this as a “bonus” game. Who knows though. I didn’t think he would start so epically bad either.
I think Cujo is in on Thursday. We’ve got another tough game on saturday
A Toronto sports blog, where we unequivocally and unapologetically support the home team...
I like Cujo v. Phoenix and the Toskala v. Washington.
Toskala really is the epitome of sunk cost – best to hope he regains some form and pulls in some assets at the deadline.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
To be honest, I see Toskala staying with this team. He’s really not much of a trading commodity, unless a team really feels like he’ll be a great co-starter for the playoffs. I don’t see many starting goalies traded at the deadline.
I’d like to see him moved, even if it’s for a Brion/Huet like 2nd round pick.
$4M is way too much for the level of goaltending he provides and he’s a free agent at the end of the 2010 season.
Bitter Leaf Fan: a life-long Toronto Maple Leafs fan comments on the team, the media and the exasperation...
I see him moved in the offseason
Unless he gets at least north of .900 in sv%, and even then I don’t think it’s enough, I don’t think he can net a 2nd rounder. I just don’t see a would-be contender having much more worse goaltending to justify a Toskala trade. Most teams that want goaltending are moving towards their own players and/or prospects.
I don’t think that’s fair to Cujo, and I think the other guys in the room would smell a rat. They wouldn’t like it that one of their mates was being hung out to dry and purposely embarrassed. That’s the way a coach loses a team and creates factions in a dressing room.
If the team wants Cujo gone (and they should), they need to do it like mature adults. Sit down and talk to him. Explain (in more flowery language) how he sucks donkey balls and is, for lack of a better word, shit-canned. Then have a tearful ceremony where he announces he’s come to the conclusion that his career is done and he’s moving on to other opportunities in the organization. The players will respect that.
You need to instill loyalty in the team if you’re going to ask them to go to war for you, especially when they know they’re undermanned as far as talent goes.

I completely agree – but that’s not in Ronny’s control. I’m just saying he doesn’t have a realistic second option right now, so he has to do what he has to do and keep his fingers crossed.
I said the other night that Cujo should be “convinced” to retire. He’s done. He gave us some great memories and I think he’s a class act who wasn’t respected the way he should have been when he was here the first time around. But he’s playing like a 42 year old goaltender not named “Johnny Bower” right now and it’s unlikely that will change in the future.

except
dexter doesn’t grind his victims up or store them in his freezer

True
But I feel like Dexter would be the only “serial killer” I could befriend in my imaginary world.

Dexter would probably be the best friend of them all

Oh fuck off White. Hesitating twice a foot off the blue line before slapping the puck straight at the goalie is not a way to generate offense. Skate a bit, move laterally and change the angle and eat up some distance to get the shot on net quicker, you ass.
how do you really feel about him??

"But if someone so eager to engage into fist talk, we can always meet after season end in Minsk." (Mikhail Grabovski and a well-meaning but not particularly skillful translator)
And here's what I said about Toskala
Back in July, 2007:
MLSE has signed Toskala to a new, two year, $8M contract good for an annual cap hit of $4M.
MLSE was in a bit of a bind on this one – if they don’t negotiate a new deal, Toskala becomes a UFA at the end of this season and could theoretically hit the open market. Having a player walk after 50+ games isn’t a great return on three draft picks…
That said, maybe those big hockey brains down in the executive suites at the ACC could learn something from previous experience (Maybe? Just once? Please?).
Last year after dealing for Raycroft, the MLSE brass signed him to an extension before he played a single game for the blue and white.
That worked out craptacularly well for my beloved Leafs.
So well, in fact, that the club decided to deal away more of the future for another starting goalie.
And about 365 days after signing an untested Raycroft, the same big brains have decided to offer Toskala a two-year deal for $8M – all before Toskala stops a single puck for the big club.
What’s the rush? Why not see how the new boy does and negotiate a deal as the season progresses…$4M is quite the payday for a guy who’s barely played 100 games.

Are you trying to make me suicidal?
Don’t tell me stuff like that. Gah!

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

MF, was there a prenup involved?
A Toronto sports blog, where we unequivocally and unapologetically support the home team...
No. No pre-nup. We eloped one weekend out of the blue – best thing I’ve ever done (she has a very meddlesome mother). I knew I wanted to be married, but I didn’t want a wedding.

Every time we talked about getting married it was clear that the plans were for everyone but us.
It was odd and very difficult leap to realize that it was our wedding and we coudl do whatever the hell we wanted.
I proposed on a Thursday, got the license and rings on the Friday, booked a minister over the weekend and we were married at a friend’s vineyard in Niagara on the Lake the following Tuesday.
Her mum and my sister weren’t happy, but we sure as hell were (and are).

I foresee Telly with a shut-out and at least one Coyote scoring his first goal of the year.
