[James Mirtle? Win. Mikhail Grabovski? Win. Grabbo love? Win. Insanity quotes? Win.](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/leafs-beat/so-sick-hes-got-a-new-nickname-crosbovski/article1933164/?utm%5Fmedium=Feeds%3A%20RSS%2FAtom&utm%5Fsource=Hockey&utm%5Fcontent=1933164)

Exhibit A:

> There, for the past six years, he has had a large tattoo that depicts himself as a young hockey player in full equipment with a woman’s face looking over him.
> 
> It’s not something he regrets getting.
> 
> "It’s an angel," he said. "My special angel."

Exhibit B:

> "Crosbovski," Armstrong said. "Lately I’ve been calling him that. Like a Russian [Sidney Crosby](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55428/sidney-crosby?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). He’s been a great player for us. He’s sick. Every game, the way he plays, he’s fearless, relentless."

Exhibit C:

"I feel like I’m still growing \[as a player\]," Grabovski said. "I have more experience. I’m stronger, in the head."

More fun after the jump.

"That night, I went home and I PVR'd the game and so I watched it a little bit and went over the goals and the saves," he said. "Saw what I could have done or what bounces happened. If I could have done anything. And just tried to forget about it." From Mirtle.

[Lupul Feeling More Like Old Self](http://www.640toronto.com/Blogs/EatSleepLeafs/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10212863&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

Jonas Siegel has the interview. I have to say, I like what I've seen of Lupul so far, and I think a full training camp will do him some good.

[Maple Leafs Jersey Flowchart](http://mapleleafshotstove.com/2011/03/07/maple-leafs-jersey-flowchart/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)  
Everybody seems to be making flow charts these days. Over at MLHS, Daniel Santos has made a pretty good one about which player name you should have on your jersey. Mine's Kaberle.

[Remembering those wonderful old-time hockey calendars](http://vintageleafmemories.blogspot.com/2011/03/remembering-those-wonderful-old-time.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)  
We hung onions on our belts, as was the fashion at the time.

Vance over at Bangin' Panger has a look at the combined strength of our remaining opponents.

The Globe's trots out several of its Sports reporters to give their opinions.

[Lowetide: Clear Day](http://lowetide.blogspot.com/2011/03/clear-day.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)  
Lowetide thinks that hockey needs more colorful slang and terms to describe play. I completely disagree. We have a Pierre Maguire for that, and it's the worst part of his work. "Monster", "net presence", and "puck management" are just three of his well-known catch phrases that should be banned from the airwaves.

[Blame the New Rules for run of concussions?](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/opinions/roy-macgregor/blame-the-new-rules-for-run-of-concussions/article1933092/?utm%5Fmedium=Feeds%3A%20RSS%2FAtom&utm%5Fsource=Hockey&utm%5Fcontent=1933092)  
A Hall-of-Famer thinks attempt to speed up the game could be behind the head injuries. Sounds like a Don Cherrianesque argument.
