Make sure cast numerous votes for Toskala and Kaberle. Remember, you can vote as many as you like very January 2nd. Got the time? Vote 100 times everyday. Let's get our Leafs as starters. Click the following link.
Toskala has struggled early and like previous years I expect his game to pick up. Joseph has been horrible. Pogge is doing any better with the Marlies.
Kaberle and Kubina and struggling with a young defense. Van Ryn and Collaiocovo have looked great, but continue to be injury prone. The D-kids have looked great.
Gabrovsky has looked amazing after a slow start. We have two scoring lines? When did that happen last? And Blake has been awful as always.
Lot's of good new, but I still expect no playoff. Another 9th place finish will make Fletcher look real bad.
The Tucker release is still disappointing. We have to eat 60% of his salary for the next 6 years. We could've eaten Raycroft's salary with the Marlies, but chose to put it against the Leafs for 2 years. We lost half of the Marlies defense that looked great in last years Calder run. More bad decision.
We sign Fingers? He looks like McCabe without the bullet shot. Too many bad decisions. Sorry Fletch, loved you the first time around.
Today we added pages for all the MMA fighters.

Q: The Stanley Cup was recently on tour in my town, and I kissed it. Do I have to worry about being infected by listeria?
A: You are safe. The Stanley Cup has not been in contact with any Maple Leaf product in over 40 years.
Thanks to my brother Matt for the jokes!
Six of the NHL's 30 current head coaches were drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
via Wade (my brother) and Kevin. Thanks!
More weirdness is that 3 of the 30 coaches were born in the average sized city of Windsor, Ontario.
