Game Coverage

Thanks to the Leafs being the most important franchise in Canada if not the NHL last night's game was played at the ridiculous hour of 4pm PST so that Leafs Nation didn't have to miss out on a night on the town. Ironically, the Leafs seem

There is nothing sweeter than a big win in the opposition's barn and a lovely rendition of "Goodbye" to remind those smug fans that while their team might have the media on its knees the Leafs just handed them an L. Someone was reading the discussion

The expected crowd of blue and white faithful materialised but something was missing...oh yeah, effort. Not that the Leafs didn't play a decent gme and try right to the very end when they scored one of the top 10 weirdest goals I have ever seen (and hat&

On a night when HNIC honours heroes of the real and sporting type, the Leafs pick a great time to play what is increasingly becoming the mark of these 08/09 Leafs: 60 minutes of being a team that no one in the NHL enjoys playing against. Similar to the

Boston learned their lesson from last week and skated with the Leafs all the way through this one. The Leafs had another rough first period, giving up a pair of goals, and gave up another one in the second to put themselves down 3-0. Steener had a pretty goal

Well, shit. Toronto looked sloppy in the first period, giving up four goals. A lot of hard work by Hagman (1G 1A) and Grabovski (2G 1A) and a shot by Van Ryn tied it up and got the Leafs a single point they probably didn't deserve. Good to

Holding on to a 3-1 lead Toronto gave up three goals in three minutes in the second period en route to losing 6-4 to Carolina. Good effort by the Leafs in the last half of the third, but Toronto looked really complacent with the 3-1 lead and

Tlusty scores on January 31st in Carolina.

Predictably, the Leafs lost against the Lightning. It was a pretty uneven game in terms of the tempo. The Leafs definitely outplayed the Lightning but the difference in star power told as Vinny Lecavalier scored two including the game winner. Steven Stamkos got an imaginary assist to record his first

Great comeback win by Toronto tonight. The scoring summary: * Bergeron - 15:32 1st (BOS 1 TOR 0) Wheeler - 16:03 1st (BOS 2 TOR 0) * Van Ryn PPG - 6:17 2nd (BOS 2 TOR 1) Antropov - 8:30 2nd (BOS 2 TOR 2) Stralman - 10:46 3rd (BOS 2 TOR

DON'T STEP IN THE CREASE IT IS MADE OF LAVA Rough game for the Leafs last night. Luke Schenn was actually on the ice for an even strength goal against, but it's good to see him getting lots of time on the penalty kill. Unfortunately the

The Leafs skated into Madison Square Garden to face the New York Rangers after three days of practice and the work paid off in spades. Below is an artist's rendition of what Vesa wore out of the rink tonight: Toskala was a bit lucky (two posts on one

Well, no bones about it, the Leafs got smoked last night. I sauntered into my house in time to see the Habs score a pair in two minutes to make it 4-0. In a way it's sort of liberating. The Leafs are not a playoff team, they&

Stralman buries it. Winkle, I give you full permission to spam this post with comments starting now!

The first game of this rebuilding season is going to be painful, but remember that the end goal isn't short term success now, it's ending up where Detroit is now. The Red Wings haven't always been a fantastic team, their cup drought was 42

Well, I ended up  missing this game in favour of watching Toronto FC continue to give me a ray of hope of seeing a team in the playoffs this year. A huge 3-1 win over the New York Red Bulls keeps them in the hunt although it will require
