Not much on the Leafs front again today, but still plenty of news around the league. Tampa came out firing on all cylinders last night, opening a three goal lead on the [Bruins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/boston-bruins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and never looking back. Gonna be tough to win four against the Lightening considering the play of [Dwayne Roloson](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54851/dwayne-roloson?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at the moment. Check out this morning's links after the jump, including a really good read on some of the league's struggling franchises from the New York Times.
