7 IS IT: LEAFS 2 RANGERS 5
All good things must come to an end as the Rangers chased out Reimer and snapped the Leafs winning streak: Lupul (15), Clarkson (10); Nash (16,17), Brassard (9), Dorsett (6), McDouagh (6pp).
W Lundqvist 15/17 L Reimer 19/23 Bernier 6/7

KESS IMPRESS: SABRES 1 LEAFS 4
Renewed confidence in Reimer (after letting in 4 goals last game) and an explosion of goals from Kessel put the Leafs back in the win column & on the heels of 1st place Tampa: Kessel *(27,28,29,30en); Hodgson (12).
*I can honestly say I have never had a player score 4 consecutive goals in one game, this was awesome.
W Reimer 20/21 L Miller 14/17

WINDS NON EXISTENT IN THE 3RD: CANES 1 LEAFS 3
Leafs dominated the 3rd period with 2 uncontested goals & outstanding goaltending from Bernier and won thier 26th game of the season in front of a sell out crowd: Orr (3en), JVR (13,14); Pitkanen (4pp)
W Bernier 21/22 L Ward 16/18

ORIGINAL GAME: LEAFS 3 WINGS 4
A classic orginal 6 game as fans were honoured with 7 goals, 40+ hits, 25 penalties including one misconduct, and 45 shots but in the end it was the Reds who won: Clarkson (11), Kessel (31,32); Weiss 914), Zetterburgh (5), Abdelkader (9), Frazen (15pp)
W Howard 16/19 L Bernier 22/26

HIT REVIEWED, NOT GOOD
In the 3rd period Bozak found Alfredsson alone and not paying attention in the nuetral zone. Lining him up, he put him into the Wings bench in what can only be called a "Viscious Hit", Alfredsson was injured and will miss 2 weeks with an undisclosed heard injury.

Given a 5 mins for charging and a game miscoduct, the League has past judgment on Bozak and has decided he will be suspended for the next 5 games, not good.

In his absence Holland (leading the marlies in pts) has been called up, new lines:

JVR - Kadri - Kessel
Lupul - Holland - Clarkson
Raymond - Bolland - Kulemin
McLeran - McClement - Orr

OTHER TIDBITS: I have decided for now on I will go with the winning goalie, alternating from there.

ORIGINALS NO FUN FOR LEAFS: RANGERS 4 LEAFS 0
What can I say, this was a horrible game for the Leafs. Nothing they did worked, and I mean nothing: Nash (20), Poulet (3), Brassard (10), Richards (5).
W Lundqvist 9/9 L Reimer 14/18

GREAT EFFORT BY KESS: ISLANDERS 1 LEAFS 4
On the heels of two losses, Kess and the Leafs built confidence as everything went right and they won this one: Kulemin (11), Kessel *(33,34,35); Martin (5).
7th multi goal game & 2nd hattrick of the season for Kess - he's a machine
W Bernier 19/20 L Nabokov 14/18

UPDATE: Leafs are 27-13-4 (58pts) and stand 3rd in the East, currently 7-3-0 in the last 10.
