It's Monday morning which means two things: that it's time to head to the polls and vote in the Fan Confidence Poll. Last week's tally was 73 which gives us a run of 64-68-66-60-61-66-73 since the inception of the poll. I imagine that spirits are pretty high so this is a reminder that what we're trying to track is your thoughts on the following: 

**How likely are the Leafs to make the playoffs?**

So what happened over the past week?

1. 1967ers announced this year's Leaf of the Day tribute team: the 1930s and 1940s Maple Leafs [starting with Bud Poile](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/bud-poile-my-grandfathers-leafs/).
2. The Leafs continued their hot streak in Pittsburgh where they held on to a 4-3 win despite being mostly outplayed. Three wins in a row to start the season [proved to be too much to take for some people](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/maple-leafs-4-at-penguins-3-gee-thanks/).
3. Chemmy [trolled Habs fans pretty hard](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/what-a-delightful-tidbit/) and they fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Only one was able to point out that the 'streak' only encompassed two starts.
4. SkinnyFish looked at [the league by the numbers](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/sizing-up-the-nhl-by-height-weight-and-age/) which made for a fun day of arguing over the semantics of calling professional athletes 'fat'.\*
5. One of the important season series for the Leafs will be against the Rangers. Steve [set the stage for the trio of early season meetings](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/a-tale-of-two-cities/).
6. The Leafs took a read and decided that it made sense for [them to keep up their winning ways](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/rangers-3-leafs-4-0-0/). Of course, we all should continue to [enjoy our run while maintaining a level head](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/reality-check/).

So that's the week that was. Be sure to vote **based on the question above.** A nice note from Chemmy's recap: The Leafs' took 21 games last year to win 4 times. Twenty-one. Dear God, that's a lot.
