Leafs at Panthers
Puck Drop: 7:30 ET Leafs-TV
Tonight the Maple Leafs face the Panthers. The Leafs played really stifling D in the third period against Tampa and Ron Wilson is hoping they build on that:
"We didn't give up any scoring chances, and that's difficullt to do, especially on the road," said Wilson. "Some of our defencemen are playing much better than they did earlier in the year and we're scoring timely goals." - The Star
Jonas Gustavsson gets the start against Tomas Vokoun but the big storyline is that to change our luck Stajan and Hagman are sporting moustaches:
Stajan, by the way, is sporting a moustache, as is Niklas Hagman. "We're just trying to change our luck," said Stajan. - The Star
Remember your SPG picks, check out SBNation's Litter Box Cats for Panthers coverage and remember to tell MLSE how much you like LEAFS MAN, and go Leafs go!

Some questions about LEAFS MAN
Is he a top six mascot?
Who should centre Leafs Man?
Did the Leafs make a mistake in retiring Carlton? Could he go one to be a 20 year mascot at another club?
I heard that 60% of Leafs Man’s popularity is due to being paired with other very popluar mascots, could his popularity drop-off once he’s forced to go solo at the ACC?
Is it true that the pantone for his arms and legs is based on Jason Blake’s skin?

I wonder
if the schedule is weird for other teams. I know the Olympics kind of messes things up, but to this degree? really?
THIS IS A JOKE
Here we go…Vancouver plays at home on the 27th of January….they then have 14 straight road games and don’t play at home again until March 13th.
They better not bitch
they did bid for the Olympics, no one Kobe Bryant’ed it on them… allegedly
