    The Tucker/Domi era Leafs were despised outside Toronto for on-ice reasons. The real problem with Sportsnet/TSN is that they do nothing but talk about the Leafs WHILE they are sucking.

    Forget the Knicks. It's more accurate to say that the Leafs are the Tebow of the NHL.

      Yeah I would probably fight Darcy Tucker if I saw him on the street. He was deplorable.

      NHL - Philadelphia Flyers
      NFL - Buffalo Bills

        As part of its centennial, the league really needs to release an All-Time Punchable Face Team.

        Off the top of my head, I can think of at least a half-dozen Canucks from the last decade who should make the team, and I'm a Vancouver fan!

          Hat Trick for David Perron tonight vs. Calgary. Blues up 5-2 in the 3rd and dominating SOG's.

            Leafs blow yet another lead.


            Sure, nobody expects them to do well this year, but losing the way they do does suck alot. Not just blowing a lead, but scoring 4 goals in a game and still losing!

              Flames get this one to 5-4, but Steen gets the ENG to put it away. That was uncomfortably close for a game it looked like the Blues had dominated.

                    Leafs waive Michalek(aka the last cap filler remaining from Phaneuf deal). They did so to claim Ben Smith off waivers, but with the money saved by Michalek either in ahl or claimed, I wonder if they're planning some big trade.

                    AHL roster overloaded with guys, Leafs have pro level prospects to spare, and know how bad they need a top 4 NHL dman, so maybe something is stirring?

                        Crazy finish in the Flames/Blackhawks game. Flames tie it late, Brian Elliott with a skate save as regulation expired. OT was fun, and the shootout went like scoreless 6 or 7 rounds before Kris Versteeg scored.

                          Malcolm Subban has been pulled in each of his first two NHL starts. 16 saves on 22 shots = .727 SV%

                          We have the wrong Subban.

                            Yeah, he certainly didn't look great tonight.

                              Having watched the Wild once this year, and Vanek's hot start with Detroit, I feel pretty safe saying that Yeo was holding the Wild back.

                                Leafs fans to Lightning tonight:


                                On the plus side, at least Leafs didn't blow a lead. As much as media will be criticizing(and later questioning why people are criticizing) the Leafs goaltending, Leafs badly need to fix their defense. Still hoping they could manage some kind of trade with Ducks or Jets for their RFA dman. Even if they'd have to give up someone like a JVR in the deal, I'd do it, though would much rather give up D prospects(which Leafs have lots of in AHL) to get something done.
