Step 4

I assume that would be “See step 3, repeat as needed.”

Anybody throws me against the boards I'm gonna piss all over myself.

Step 4

Is TBD because the Leafs aren’t sure what really happens between going ahead on the scoreboard and the end of the game.

Maybe with Mo’ behind the bench, but with Ron, I hope he’ll tell them to see step 3,

Step 67

Starting in Vancouver, ending in Toronto, after passing through Montreal and heading back through Ottawa…co-inciding with PPP’s book signing tour I imagine…

Toskala

Maybe he’ll feel a bit of heat with Pogge on the bench…?

Hopefully he feels the heat instead of feeling like he’ll be gone if he plays TOO well.

Actually tonight I expect a preseason blowout. Yes, I’m such a jerk that I will predict a blowout in the preseason. The lineup tonight is as close to the regular season lineup as it’s going to get – don’t put us on the power play.
