UPCOMING PLAYER MILESTONES

Peter Holland needs 5 games to reach 200 NHL games played.
Ben Smith needs 7 games to reach 200 NHL games played.

Ex-Leafs on the Ducks: Korbinian Holzer
Ex-Ducks on the Leafs: Jake Gardiner, Joffrey Lupul, Peter Holland, P.A. Parenteau, Mike Babcock,


If P.A. Parenteau scores 1 goal this game he'll hit 100 career goals.

A win for the Ducks puts them within 2 points of the Kings for 1st in the Pacific, but the Kings are playing Winnipeg tonight. Tough night for the Ducks.


The kids will continue to play and hopefully continue to play well. I don't see danger in win here.

Go Leafs Go!


Oh, if the game isn't your thing, find a CHL playoff game, they start tonight. Leafs prospect Jeremy Bracco (Kitchener, playing Windsor) starts his series tonight, it's being boradcast on Sportsnet, and future possible Future Leaf Alexander Nylander is playing with Mississauga against Barrie.


Plus the IceDogs host the 67's, so thats the best one to watch.
