Leafs at Islanders: Snap Into the Draft Lottery

Puck Drop: 5PM Leafs-TV

While the Leafs were busy giving the people's elbow to Edmonton last night the Islanders pedigreed the Devils 4-2 on goals by Freddy Meyer (Go Terriers!), Jon Sim, Sean Bergenheim and Mark Streit.

The Leafs have finally won three games in a row for the first time all season yet remain five points behind the Islanders for the right to draft third. One has to imagine that the Islanders would like to draft second so I declare tonight Pro Wrestling Night: wherein two teams both pretend this is a legitimate sporting event. If the Leafs lose we'll just assume they're going to win at Wrestlemania and this sets up the story line.

Jean-Sebastien Giguere should get the start across from Martin Biron. The tickets I normally sit in on the glass at Nassau Coliseum are on StubHub right now for $51 a piece. Wish I wasn't so busy.

Everyone thinks they can rap because it’s just talking and bragging – you don’t see them trying to milk the spotlight with opera albums… But you could tell the guy doing the chorus was better than him. That’s just kinda odd.

Glory glory Man United, AND the other MU, AAAAnd the Leafs. I think I need a drink now.

Kmon Leafs, get out of the Lottery! Make that Kessel trade not seem so bad!

by BlindSight on Mar 14, 2010 2:56 PM EDT reply actions  

The Kessel trade doesn’t look bad from where I’m sitting.

I did indeed see them but the lower a pick we get the better the trade looks. Never said Kessel was a bad player.

by BlindSight on Mar 14, 2010 3:08 PM EDT up reply actions  

But you said the Kessel trades seems “so bad”

anyone have any ideas how to fix this site? It’s all blue background and all the formatting is all messed up ever since the 2nd period last night. Does it no longer support firefox?

I had that same blue screen thing in the 2nd last night, but it later fixed, and I’m using the very hot dog’s cousin browser Ithink about it).

Indeed. I read Hart’s autobiography and he didn’t do himself any favours by continuing to wrestle after he suffered the concussion. That and WCW totally ruined him.
