From The Branches

The last week of the regular season begins.

Two more to go.

The Florida Panthers are dueling with the Leafs for the deepest part of the Atlantic.

They're more similar than I expected.

Marlies clinch.

So have a really, really long table of numbers!

The management and coaching of all the NHL is in a state of Quantum Superposition.

The NHL is suffering from climate change.

Just for today.

This is the game the Leafs are supposed to lose.

A holiday from hockey.

Is that a pun? Maybe.

Come on in. It's nice and comfy.

Why now, and not before the trade deadline?

Why isn't this done already?

Leafs are travelling to California, you don't have to go with them.

Sometimes there isn't a simple aphorism that sums things up.

The last real road trip of this accursed season.

Another win!

The Rangers barely managed to touch the puck in their last game, so tonight is going to be fun.

What is there to talk about though?

A cliché for our times.

Too many injuries.

But they're back to work today.

Another day free of Leafs hockey.
