Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans!

Last night the Maple Leafs did not play, but there was still one game worth watching, as long as you weren't a fan of the Ottawa Senators.

No, it's not just enjoying the blowout loss - that's fun too. Even Korpisalo was yelling at his defenders.

The big story though is how THIRTEEN players from the Senators were elected from the game.

It really started with a usual healthy scratch taking out his captains brother with a nasty head hit.

Then all hell broke loose, the Senators decided to quit hockey and just be jerks and they were left with ten guys on the bench.

So. I wonder what happens today in Ottawa....

Oh well. Here's some links.

We got some new lines in practice. Hopefully they stay for tonight's game.

The All Star Draft is back!

The PWHL is getting in on the All Star Game action as well.

The Minnesota Wild ditched their coach after he bought out two very expensive players and now can't properly build a team with so much dead cap space.

oh that wasn't him?

Finally, while there is a lot to fix in hockey, there's still lots of good here too. When a Grimsby minor player suffered a terrible injury, everyone around him has done everything they can to help him out.

Have a great day everyone, and remember. The Maple Leafs are playing the post-brawl Florida Panthers tonight.

Alright!
