When the Leafs were on top...

Heh heh. 13 games played... and then it all went downhill... and the wheels fell off after the All Star break.

Leafs visit the Panthers tonight... yet another big game.. but really, 8 points out... with Buffalo playing lights out ahead of them... it is time to abandon all hope.

I hope so. Just not on Saturday night, we gotta exact revenge on that 5-0 whooping. Incidently, they've only won 3 times since that game in Ottawa: twice against the Oilers and once against the Habs.

Reimer gets the start for the Leafs tonight. Theodore goes for the Panthers.

Is Kessel unhappy in TO? Rumblings of his discontentment have surfaced... but that should not be a surprise to anyone... the team is in a tail spin to the bottom of the Abyss. No one should be happy. Naturally, the Toronto Media have spun this into a "Kessel's gonna ask for a trade, look what happened in Boston" rumour.

And the beat goes on...

From DGB's latest:

Boston Bruins

Greatest strength: Lead the league in goal differential with a +58, although in fairness that does go down to +3 if you take away their five games against the Maple Leafs.

Brophy: No goals for Leafs now in 157:24...and counting

That would be hilarious if he asked for a trade.

Meh... it's just the media spinning this up into a frenzy... welcome to Toronto.

Yeah, no kidding.

Leafs have lost 15 of their last 17 games. Wow.

The Leafs are tied for 25th in the league right now, only 3 pts up on Montreal for 28th. Carolina AND the Isles are only one back of Toronto.

Chances are Toronto winds up in the draft lottery.

Maybe it's not the coach they stopped playing for, but the GM. Or, worse, they don't care for the logo on their chests.

How many in the lineup are their own draft picks or NCAA free agents?
