Well the Leafs finally lost a game in regulation last night with a lackadaisical effort against an understaffed Rangers team. Even so, the Leafs gave up a season high 32 shots on net after averaging only 23 the previous 5 games. Equally troubling, the Leafs went 0 for 5 on the powerplay dropping their short-season average to 14.3%; only 0.3% higher than it was for all of last season when it was ranked dead last. There are a lot of questions surrounding this team now and the biggest one of all is whether or not the 4-0 start was merely a flash in the pan and not a good indication of the actual talent assembled on the ice.

Only time and the links below will tell.

Zero for Five on the powerplay - That's why they lost.

This is not going to go over well with many

No surprise, Slava Duris finds that the Leafs got out chanced

Also, I got to listen in a bit on the next installment of the PPP Podcast and the consensus amongst the boys is that [Brett Lebda](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55731/brett-lebda?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) is a terrible hockey player; one that I wholeheartedly agree with.
