8 losses in a row, must be worse than being up 4-1 in a game 7 and collapsing? WIll their big streak be 48 years and counting very soon? Almost as much fun watching them plummet, as watching 20-51-67 go globetrotters on other teams lately.

Bozon was at Ice-Hitman game, looked a bit pale and thin, but to be expected I suppose. Kootenay big upset over Calgary in six games. (S Reinhart with 17points in series, he is one slick/calm/smart player)

Will see in a few weeks how she plays out. vs Tampa and then likely Bruins.

Looks like Lehkonen will be in SHL for 2 years.

If only that powerhouse Sabres could of beat Tampa, all would be right with the world. But chalk up another win for Carey and crew and solidify playoff spot (no clinch yet, but just as good as, 99.9996%).

Poor Leafs down to 6.5% chance of making it. (Habs @ 99.9996%) Hope Pacioretty & that line play the same in 2 1/2 weeks vs Tampa.

SH EN goal 5-1. Must be even mathematically out of playoffs now (or awful darn close) OK 6-1, why not.

2nd straight game with dumb penalty for Czarnik and 5 on 3 PP goal, 3-0 Thomas (from MM & Swiss kid) taps one in 3-1. not for long 4-1

Dogs down 1-0 3minutes in. Nattinen will be SHL bound in fall I would guess. 2-0 shots 20-3 in 1st.

Beaulieu likely could do fine in NHL, but Habs seem to be doing quite well without him. But, zero NHL regulars ever suffered from too much time in AHL and his (seeming) sense of entitlement isn't a good thing for a young d-man. Bournival went to Hamilton and was head and shoulders better than other players and Beaulieu should dominate in a similar fashion and work hard to improve his overall game.

Well, hopefully Habs forwards can light em up and Murray maybe can get his 1st.

Too good eh? He would agree and tell you that as well (and play like he is, a slightly above average AHL d-man).

sorry, misworded and meant, I would think Sorkin will draw in over the other 2 guys. Poor Holland not high in Lefebvre's good book and seems biggest disappointment, to me.

Doubt will take too long, Bergevin-Timmins seemed very 'proud' of de la Rose at world juniors.

Hobbit-smurfs are winning, so if exact same lineup comes back next year, could do worse (high scoring Leafs and the other 20 teams beneath the Habs come to mind)

Would rather see Pateryn get a shot. But, he and Beaulieu will be playing a tougher team than Panthers today anyways.

I would of thought maybe Czarnik or Owens would be out for Sorkin?

Ya, Bergevin adding Prust, Murray, Parros, Weise and Tinordi (playing 19 games) has added a tiny bit of 'swagger' for sure and the play/attitude of #11 also is a nice and gritty. And also has seemed to me that Moan has been more willing to engage and drop em this year, no stat to back up, but seems a bit feistier and is a super PK duo with Tomas, so hope he is back 100% by playoff time.

Just so many good Leaf sayings, after decades of losing, one dumb one that is stuck in my memory and makes me laugh. How are Leafs and Whales similar? They both get confused when surrounded by ice!

Sure, burst my balloon with fact and rules!

Maxim guy assisted on Thomas goal 5-3 dogs

Atta boy, Pateryn with go ahead goal and 4th point. That may tweek Habs interest a bit?

Bergevin I think wants more grit and he was a semi-hot commodity when Timmins went to check him out and he chose Habs, but he also washed out of OHL so I was never that 'pumped' about him, but hope for the best.

Crispy's team lost 7-0 so he is freed up. Road trip with Dogs bound maybe? Or unlikely?

agree too funny. Leafs now at 20% chance of making playoffs, hope they have hope and get eliminated right at end (just out of spite, which isn't one of 7 deadly sins, so OK eh?)
