- Description: No one could have predicted this: after winning six in a row the Leafs lose badly to a South-East division team that&#39;s one of the worst in the NHL. Completely unprecedented.

The Leafs next game is Saturday at the ACC, hosting the Flyers, after which they begin a 7 game road trip, though I assume they will get to go home for Christmas at some point in the middle of it. Through the end of January the Leafs will have only 5 more home games, and 14 away games. Hold on to your butts.
