Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans!

Last night was the Canada / USA game of the Four Nations Faceoff, and it started with a bang.

Then it ended with a blah.

And speaking of international rivalries, Finland defeated Sweden in overtime! They love to beat Sweden more than any other rivalry I think.

Orillia native Hap Day was a star for the Maple Leafs, and there's a two part series on him in the local paper.

Marie-Philip Poulin is still out there doing her thing, sadly it's for Montréal.
